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.

Case Description
This present study addresses the question of the composition of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbial communities outside, at the entrance and inside the prehistoric Azé cave using a metabarcoding survey. The results showed that cave bacteria as well as Eukaryote phototrophs richness were negatively correlated with the distance from the cave entrance. In fact, outside the cave, richness, diversity and specific OTUs were significantly higher in comparison to the entrance and the bottom of the cave. Moreover, this study reported that each section of the cave host different communities. The differences in communities provide a better understanding of the microorganism sources in the Azé show cave.
