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

The Proterozoic Record of Eukaryotes (2015, background): “Questions we seek to illuminate with improved datasets include: What was the relationship between eukaryotic diversification and a putative rise in oxygen (Lenton et al. 2014; Planavsky et al. 2014)?”
Remarkable insights into the paleoecology of the Avalonian Ediacaran macrobiota (2015, neutral): “…and Pfluger, 1994; Bambach et al., 2007), redox conditions in marine substrates (e.g. Callow and Brasier, 2009a; Shields-Zhou and Och, 2011), nutrient cycling (Brasier, 1992; de Goeij et al., 2013), and global ocean chemistry (Canfield and Farquhar, 2009; Butterfield, 2011; Lenton et al., 2014).”
Proterozoic photosynthesis – a critical review (2015, background): “Certainly, there is more to the ecology of prokaryotic vs eukaryotic productivity than ambient chemistry, not least the ‘master trait’ of cell size and its myriad effects on light harvesting, buoyancy, predator avoidance and overall life history (Litchman and Klausmeier 2008).”
Early evolution of the Eukaryota (2015, background): “750 Ma spike in armoured microfossils and sterane abundance (Pawlowska et al. 2013; Lenton et al. 2014).”
