Note. — Average values over the different template cloud regions defined in Section 3.2. Numbers in parenthesis represent the standard deviation (1σ) of each sample. LFIR refers to the 40-500 μm range.

a

The central Orion BN/KL region (50′×50′) is not included in the computation of the average values due to saturation of the photometric measurements. A low L[C ii]/LFIR≃(2-8)×10−5 luminosity ratio and td,160≃1-3 was inferred from Herschel/PACS spectroscopic observations (Goicoechea et al. 2015). The mean L[C ii]/LCO 2–1 ratio in this region is ~270.
