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.

Review Description
Extreme temperature events (ETEs), both hot and cold, have received much attention in the literature because of their adverse impacts upon society, in particular human health. Under scenarios of climate change, substantial changes in the frequency and intensity of ETEs are projected. Here, we review literature from the last few years that have assessed recent changes and projected future ETEs, along with projected impacts on human health. Regarding the impacts on health, we pay particular attention to the many dimensions of uncertainty in making these assessments.
