A city carries no overall standing here. The composite score is built for institutions and countries, the units its floors and field normalisation were designed around. An empty rank on this page is a statement about the measure, not about the place.

How concentrated the city is
The same institutions as shares of everything the list accounts for. A city that is one university and a city that is twelve read alike as a table and not at all alike here.
Shares of the rows listed above, not of the whole node.
What is Merced strongest at in research?
Relative to its size, research in Merced is most concentrated in Global and Planetary Change (3.7× the world share in Global and Planetary Change).
