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.

Lecture / Presentation Description
Plants that require specialized soils display complex but underexplored genetic patterns related to the distribution of the soils on which they live. A group of plants in the Chihuahuan Desert grow exclusively on island-like patches of gypsum, but the sites of these soils have been poorly mapped and incompletely explored. A comprehensive map of Chihuahuan Desert gypsum could help researchers answer questions about island biogeography in gypsophiles. My research focuses on using satellite imagery to remotely sense these gypsum exposures. I have used maximum entropy analysis and applied spectral indices to create large-scale, medium-resolution maps of gypsum in the region.
