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
Field measurement with Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platform was conducted at coastal area of Bohai in winter of 2018 and summer of 2019. Characteristics of boundary layer structure and its influence on PM2.5 were studied. 76 flights in winter and 59 flights in summer were observed. Results showed that meteorological factors and PM2.5 changed significantly below 300 m. PM2.5 peak occurred at 300 m, 100 m and 200 m during summer morning, daytime and night period, respectively. During winter pollution episode, the maximum wind speed was observed at 200 m,special stratification between 50~100 m was observed at 11:00, where wind speed decreased and high PM2.5 concentration maintained. Southwest and southeast wind, northwest and northeast wind formed obvious convergence at coastal area in turn, resulting in high PM2.5 concentration of 140~160 μg m-3 and 218 μg m-3 at surface respectively. In summer, the sea breeze formed at 13:00 and extended to inland about 50 km, generating PM2.5 concentration at coastal area was ~20 μg m-3 higher than inland area. Thermal internal boundary layer formed at 15:00, weak temperature inversion layer was observed between 50 m~100 m, the maximum wind speed was 8 m s-1, the wind direction changed from southeast to south, and maximum PM2.5 concentrations of 160 μg m-3 were observed at 100 m, then the special stratification developed upward to 150 m at 17:00.
