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.

Poster Description
Water quality can be assessed by monitoring pH, DO, and conductivity. PH levels lower than 7 are acidic while pH greater than 7 are alkaline. pH levels are crucial when it comes to maintaining a healthy habitat for organisms. Most organisms are comfortable in pH ranging from 6.5-8. Conductivity is the ability of water to pass an electric current. Changes in conductivity can indicate that a water source is polluted. Dissolved Oxygen is the measure of oxygen dissolved in water. Dissolved Oxygen is directly related to temperature of water. For this project, pH and conductivity were measured using a portable Hanna HI 9828 meter with multiparameter; pH/ORP/EC/DO/Temperature probes at the 501 West site on Coastal Carolina University's campus from October 13, 2011 to November 16, 2020. The mean pH, conductivity and DO results were 6.63 recorded (all the means for all the parameter), which is within the SCDHEC accepted range.
