Table 3. Pearson product-moment correlations (r) amongst values of geographical UTM coordinates of cell centroids (X for longitude and Y for latitude), annual climatic normals of total precipitation and mean temperature, and mean distance to roads.
(see Table 1 for variable descriptions).
| X (km) | Y (km) | Total precipitation (mm) | Mean temperature (°C) | Distance to roads (km) | |
