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
Abstract: The paper analyzes the possibilities of using the algorithm for sea surface wind speed retrieval from the MTVZA-GYa Russian microwave radiometer measurements for studying the wind fields in the North Atlantic extratropical cyclones. On the basis of analyzing the ASCAT scatterometer wind fields for one year, a database of the North Atlantic extratropical cyclones has been created. Quasisynchronous (within a 2-hour time difference) fields of sea surface wind speed have been constructed from the MTVZA-GYa measurements for the areas of strong (m/s) and storm (m/s) winds in the cyclones. The wind fields retrieved from the AMSR2 and MTVZA-GYa data have been recalculated to a single regular grid. Daily and monthly mean biases and root-mean-square errors of retrieval have been estimated for different ranges of wind speed. Analysis of the differences has shown that the algorithm for the wind speed retrieval from the MTVZA-GYa data systematically underestimates the speed of high (m/s) winds in extratropical cyclones.
