In research, Aksum University stands highest in Health Sciences (#3,820 of 9,902 worldwide), Medicine (#3,802 of 8,541 worldwide) and Physical Sciences (#6,050 of 10,670 worldwide), 2022-now.
Each strip is that field's whole ranked pool, with the notch where Aksum University sits in it, in the colour
of the band that rank falls in. The track under the rate is the rate itself: it carries no average mark, because the average
differs by field (from about 6% in Dentistry to 21% in Economics).
Which of those standings moved
The same fields on both windows: where it stood over the whole record, and where it stands in 2022-now. The distance is the story, and it is the one thing the two rank columns above cannot show.

Each ring splits the one inside it: the four domains of science, their fields, their subfields. Size is fractional works in 2022-now. Every slice is a page; the interactive view zooms down to single topics and colours each by how much more of it this institution does than the world.
Location quotient across every field it publishes in: outside the ring is more than an institution of this size would be expected to publish, inside it is less.
