Location quotient against the world baseline. Inside a single field a city is a meaningful unit, which is why this is where a city is measured at all.

By fractional works in 2022–2025, weighted toward what it does more of than the world: Nonlinear Optics, Fiber Lasers, Epidemiology, Biosensors, Optical Modulators, Climate Change, Raman Lasers and Microresonators.
