Each value is one person’s total salary for the year under that rank. In a discipline view, a person is included if they taught a course in that department that year (Fall maps to the next fiscal year), so the counts are teaching-linked and depend on match coverage — see each institution’s “About this data.” A blank panel means that institution has no matching department in the data (e.g. Georgia Tech has no standalone English or History department).
