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
This article examines the impacts of economic development on land conversion in the Northern Region of West Java (NRWJ) and discusses their implications for urban and regional development. The recent development of NRWJ has been triggered largely by domestic and foreign investment in the region, which has led to a tremendous increase in demand for land. Subsequently, prime agricultural land has been subdivided and converted into industrial estates and other urban land uses. Land conversion is basically a normal part of the urban development process, but in NRWJ it does reflect the land businesses carried out by large developers, which tend to be speculative in character. The study also discusses some land-related policy reforms which are needed to guide land conversion.
