Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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
Wedge-tailed Shearwaters breeding on Manana Island, Hawaii were treated with 0.1-2.0 ml weathered Santa Barbara crude oil either by external application to the breast plumage or by oral dose in gelatin capsules approximately 30 days prior to egg laying. Applications of oil caused reduced lay, lowered hatching success, and reduced breeding success. Two ml applied externally to the breast plumage resulted in a greatly reduced number of eggs laid and complete hatching failure of 60 pair of exposed birds. Oral doses of oil in gelatin capsules reduced laying and breeding success, but to a lesser extent than external exposure. Oil exposure did not change the length of the prelaying exodus or cause birds to move to new areas of the breeding colony, but resulted in abandonment and reduced incubation attentiveness. Growth rates of chicks of oral dosed birds were not different from controls, although survival of chicks of dosed birds was reduced. Long-term effects of external application of 2.0 ml of oil were demonstrated by a decreased number of birds returning to the colony in the year after dosing and reduced breeding success one year after oil exposure. © 1986 Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
