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.

Aarhus University Reports Findings in Biofouling Control (Reducing biofouling on optical oxygen sensors; a simple modification enabling sensor cleaning via water splitting)
2023 JUN 05 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Chemicals & Chemistry Daily Daily -- New research on Biotechnology - Biofouling Control
Article Description
Biofouling is a major challenge in environmental sensing. Current mitigation strategies are often expensive, energy consuming or require toxic chemicals. In this contribution electrochemical biofouling control is evaluated as an alternative approach to reduce biofouling on an optical O sensor (optode). By using the outer stainless-steel sleeve of the optode as an electrode, water splitting increases the local pH and forms H bubbles close to the optode surface. As seen in a biofouling assay, the combination of those processes leads to biofilm removal when compared to a non-modified optode. The findings suggest that electrochemical biofouling control can be an attractive, low-cost alternative to current biofouling mitigation strategies and that this approach may not be limited to O optodes.
