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.

Book Chapter Description
The legacy of past radium and uranium mining waste in Portugal is currently dealt through an environmental remediation program for old mine sites which aims to prevent waste dispersal and radioactive contamination of the environment. In this paper radioactivity of waste materials and radiation exposure at uranium legacy sites are described and it is concluded that remediation workers might be exposed to radiation hazards. Furthermore, works involving clean-up of mine sites and milling facilities, radioactive waste transfer, and treatment of contaminated mine water may have environmental radiological hazards associated and may originate radiation exposure of members of the public as well. It is concluded that a radiological risk characterization shall be done and appropriate radiation protection measures shall be implemented in accordance with the EU Directive 59/2013 recently entered into force.
