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
A new species, Aulacoseira wyomingensis, is described from a small seep near Casper, Wyoming, USA, using light and scanning electron microscopy, in which it was the dominant diatom taxon. Valves have large areolae that cover the valve face. Spines, when present, are short and shield-like, precluding chain formation. Unlike most members of the genus, A. wyomingensis appears to lack rimoportulae. While we assign this species to the genus Aulacoseira within the Aulacoseiraceae based on the radial nature of its valve, its cingulum composed of fine ligulate bands, and presence of a ringleiste and collum, it does not appear to be easily assigned to any of the morphological groups within the genus.
