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

When can we trust population trends? A method for quantifying the effects of sampling interval and duration (2019, background): “Interval sampling could allow, say, a greater number of sites to be surveyed over a given area (Buckland & Johnston, 2017).”
An analysis of trends, uncertainty and species selection shows contrasting trends of widespread forest and farmland birds in Europe (2019, methodology): “Furthermore, inaccurate estimates of abundance indices in the early years of surveys, a 85 common feature of recording schemes, can lead to misleading estimates of population trends later 86 (Buckland & Johnston 2017).”
Pollinator monitoring more than pays for itself (2020, background): “In reality, separate power analyses would be required to determine how monitoring networks overlap of with research networks (Buckland & Johnston, 2017); however, the data required for such power analyses would require initial monitoring to establish.”
