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
Automatic and accurate detection of clouds and cloud shadows is a critical aspect of optical remote sensing image preprocessing. This paper provides a time series maximum and minimum mask method (TSMM) for cloud and cloud shadow detection. Firstly, the Cloud Score+S2_HARMONIZED (CS+S2) is employed as a preliminary mask for clouds and cloud shadows. Secondly, we calculate the ratio of the maximum and sub-maximum values of the blue band in the time series, as well as the ratio of the minimum and sub-minimum values of the near-infrared band in the time series, to eliminate noise from the time series data. Finally, the maximum value of the clear blue band and the minimum value of the near-infrared band after noise removal are employed for cloud and cloud shadow detection, respectively. A national and a global dataset were used to validate the TSMM, and it was quantitatively compared against five other advanced methods or products. When clouds and cloud shadows are detected simultaneously, in the S2ccs dataset, the overall accuracy (OA) reaches 0.93 and the F1 score reaches 0.85. Compared with the most advanced CS+S2, there are increases of 3% and 9%, respectively. In the CloudSEN12 dataset, compared with CS+S2, the producer’s accuracy (PA) and F1 score show increases of 10% and 4%, respectively. Additionally, when applied to Landsat-8 images, TSMM outperforms Fmask, demonstrating its strong generalization capability.
