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.

Book Chapter Description
Electrogenesis is based on the differentiation of excitable cells of neural or muscular lineage into electrogenic units. Neural electrocytes are enlargements of spinal electromotor axons lacking a peripheral target. Myogenic electrocytes are excitable syncitia derived from muscle fibers that lack contractile machinery. The synchronous activation of an orderly array of parallel excitable membrane patches generates relatively large electric fields of stereotyped waveform. These fields are used by the fish either as a weapon or as a carrier of information. In organs localized to a small region, the species-specific waveform of the discharge is determined by effector responses. In organs extended throughout the body, a neural network accounts for the coordination of electrocyte activity for generating the species-specific waveforms of the discharge.
