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.

Paper Description
Patterns of rural settlement and land use play important roles in the accomplishment of goals for wildlife habitat and biodiversity protection in landscapes where effective solutions depend on involving both public and private lands. The article examines the creation of the settled landscape of interior Washington State through dramatic reshaping of the natural environment and the approaches taken by state resource managers to involve private landholders in conservation efforts in farm land and range land settings. The particular effectiveness of traditional state fish and wildlife management structures as a basis for recruiting landowners to conservation efforts is noted as well as the great importance of cultural and economic understandings of land in shaping landowners’ willingness to participate in habitat protection and restoration initiatives. The article describes reasons for the great variability in landowners’ willingness to participate in conservation efforts and evaluates the effectiveness of a succession of habitat protection and restoration projects in interior Washington State, with implications for parallel conservation efforts in other settings.
