Notes: For Global and Spatial Global models coefficients are shown and standard errors are included in parantheses. * p<.05; ** p<.01; *** p<.001. For the Spatial Local models median local coefficients are shown and interquartile interval of local coefficients is indicated in parantheses. Monte Carlo (MC) tests of local spatial variability: p<.05; ₤₤ p<.01; ₤₤₤ p<.001. These tests indicate the extent to which the variation in coefficients across space is significantly different from a random distribution. (a) Coefficients and SE multiplied by 10,000.
