Best Paper in Pedometrics 2009

Alex McBratney, Budiman Minasny, and Dick Brus have, this year, undertaken the considerable task of preparing the nominations for best paper in Pedometrics 2009. All members of the IUSS are invited to vote for the best paper, and to send their votes to Axing Zhu, azhu@wisc.edu.

List the papers by number (as below) in order of preference, with the paper you regard as the most worthy winner listed first. The vote will end at midnight (Wisconsin time) on 30th November 2010., and the result will be announced in Pedometron. Certificates will be presented at Pedometrics 2011 in Třešť.
