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 Bosphorus is one of the busiest shipping lanes globally as it is the only maritime route for Black Sea countries. Every year about 50,000 ships sail through this lane. Hence, it is necessary to develop emergency response planning strategies due to its high vessel passage rate, distinguished geometry, and delicate hydrodynamics that exhibit two layer stratified flow and exchange water mass between the adjacent seas. In this study, a 3D hydrodynamic model of the Bosphorus is established to simulate oil spill scenarios for improving preparedness for an oil spill event. A stochastic approach is followed to identify oil contamination probability maps for four different ensembles considering two different oil types and two meteo-oceanographic conditions. The results highlight the importance of using different meteo-oceanographic conditions, as probability maps regarding different meteo-oceanographic conditions show large variability. The suggested response strategies can be used to manage oil spill emergencies in the Bosporus more efficiently.
