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
The expansion targets for onshore wind power have recently been more than tripled by the German government for the upcoming years. Meanwhile, the actual expansion of wind power in Germany has been stalled for several years. A major obstacle to expansion is that too few areas have been designated for wind turbines. To solve this problem, a new law has been passed, the “Windan-Land-Gesetz”. It sets explicit land area targets for the federal states to ensure that a total of 2 % of the national territory will be designated for wind turbines. This is a step in the right direction. However, it remains questionable whether the time-quantity framework is in line with national expansion targets.
