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.

Artifact Description
Gabon is a west-central African country, and one of the most forested and biologically diverse countries on the continent. The geographic region of focus for this capstone is Loango National Park, which is known for its abundance of natural and biological resources and its potential for ecotourism. Ecotourism has the potential to be a means for achieving both biodiversity conservation and economic development. However, Gabon has several infrastructure, conservation, and economic development issues that must be addressed before ecotourism can be successfully developed. The bushmeat crisis is one such issue that is impeding Gabon's ability to grow ecotourism. This study analyzes these issues, provides a set of recommendations to overcome them, and a process to develop ecotourism in Gabon.
