Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Water quality monitoring tools that rely on data from stress-response tests with continuous exposure at constant concentrations are not always appropriately protective when stressor exposure in the field is episodic in nature. The present study identifies various approaches that have attempted to account for episodic stressor exposure, describes the development of a toxicological effects database of episodic stressor exposure collated from published scientific literature, and discusses whether any discernible trends are evident when these data are reviewed. The episodic stressor exposure literature indicated that few generalizations can be made regarding associated biological responses. Instead, when attempting to characterize the hazard of a certain episodic pollution event, the following situation-specific information is required: the specific species affected and its age, the specific stressor and its concentration, the number of exposures to the stressor, the duration of exposure to the stressor, and the recovery time after each exposure. The present study identifies four main challenges to the inclusion of episodic toxicity data in environmental water quality management: varying stressor concentration profiles, defining episodic stressor concentration levels, variation resulting from routes of exposure and modes of action, and species-specific responses to episodic stressor exposure. The database, available at , could be particularly useful for site-specific risk assessments related to episodic exposures. © 2012 SETAC.
