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
Cladocera identifications based on subfossil remains differ considerably from identifications based on whole animals, yet despite this very few subfossil Cladocera identification guides exist. In particular, taxa belonging to the families Daphniidae, Leptodoridae, Polyphemidae, Holopedidae, Sididae, and Macrothricidae tend to preserve poorly, with only a few, small body parts available for identification within the sediments. Since many of these taxa are important environmental indicators in lakes, subfossil identification guides that enable them to be recognized based on only a few body parts are critical for paleolimnological investigations utilizing Cladocera. In this illustrated identification guide, we provide detailed descriptions of subfossil remains commonly recovered for 14 species belonging to the families Daphniidae, Leptodoridae, Polyphemidae, Holopedidae, Sididae, Macrothricidae, and Bosminidae for lakes in eastern Canada and northeastern USA, where several recent subfossil Cladocera-based investigations of environmental change have been focused. It is our hope that this taxonomic guide will improve consistency in subfossil Cladocera taxonomy among laboratories, and help to stimulate additional research in this ecologically significant region. The diverse taxa belonging to the family Chydoridae are considered separately. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
