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
Human activities can impact and modify coastal and marine environments in many different ways. Monitoring coastal environments based on macroalgae assemblages has been used as an efficient tool to evaluate environmental mitigation projects. The Ecological Evaluation Index (EEI-c) was developed in Greece to estimate the ecological status classes of coastal environments. We tested this index using Brazilian macroalgae data extracted from bibliographic surveys and concluded that the index represented an efficient tool for the rapid assessment of the ecological status classes of macroalgae assemblages and can be useful in monitoring programs.
