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 River's Contract is a new tool based on the voluntary agreement between local authorities and private people as a form of negotiated and shared planning procedure. It can be an opportunity to achieve landscape quality aims established by the National Code for the Cultural and Landscape Heritage. The River's Contract does embrace protection of main beliefs, 'both because its natural and environmental meanings, both as the artificial landscape, created by people'. This type of approach may be even more significant in the context of inland areas, as areas subject to strong centrifugal forces, with demographic problems and unbalanced development. The 'internal areas', as known characterized by lack of services in the small urban settlement, can promote polycentric solutions aimed at improving the production quality of the sites. As part of the optimization of the relationship between a city and country they can accommodate development models linked to valorization of their natural and cultural heritage, finalized to the maintenance of its territorial identity. This paper aims to investigate the energy potentialities of river flows, in particular regarding the possibility of the hydro-electric plants, that are either unused or underused. They are elements of interest from the point of view of the local technological tradition. Moreover, they can be used following a project in order to create local energy centres, identified through the study of programming wishes expressed by the local authorities.
