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.

Conference Paper Description
Large roughness elements such as boulders have a considerable effect on surrounding mean and turbulent flow, which can lead to modifications in local sediment transport and instream habitat quality. Understanding the difference between the flow field around an individual boulder and a boulder within a boulder array can determine the degree of influence of boulder arrays on surrounding flow fields. This experimental study compared the mean and turbulent flow fields in the vicinity of an individual natural boulder, with a boulder within an array of boulders. The results showed the partial inability of the common exponential decay functions to describe turbulence intensities around the boulder. Higher turbulence intensities were observed in the wake of the single boulder. In presence of boulders, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) profiles deviated from the profiles of an undisturbed flow, and this deviation extended to a further distance for the individual boulder case. Boulder array resulted in reduction of the Reynolds shear stress (RSS) values near the bed compared to the individual boulder. The results may provide helpful information for projects that use the instream boulder placement method such as stream restoration and natural fish passage projects.
