The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Evolution and behavioural responses to human-induced rapid environmental change (2011, background): “Amphibian declines, for example, have been associated with habitat loss, a barrage of novel enemies (diseases, predators and parasites), contaminants and climate change (Blaustein and Kiesecker 2002; Blaustein and Bancroft 2007).”
Impacts of habitat loss and restoration on amphibian populations (2009, background): “…such apparent limitations of amphibians, the group as a whole has been remarkably successful in evolutionary terms – amphibians have persisted over hundreds of millions of years regardless of the dramatic global changes in climate and habitat structure (Delfino 2005, Blaustein and Bancroft 2007).”
Understanding variation in behavioural responses to human-induced rapid environmental change: a conceptual overview (2013, background): “Species declines are often caused by the combined negative impacts of these multiple stressors (Blaustein & Kiesecker 2002; Blaustein & Bancroft 2007).”
