Notes. Columns headed 10%, 50%, and 90% give the lower decile, median, and upper decile of the quantities for the 1 140 662 719 secondary sources. See footnote 7 for the definition of good and bad CCD observations.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
