Each row represents a univariate Poisson regression model using one explanatory variable shown in the 1st column (only the null model does not have any explanatory variable). Estimates of intercept terms were omitted. n = 59 (municipalities) for all of the models.

If the p-value of Wald test is small, it indicates that the coefficient is considerably different from zero. AIC, Akaike information criterion; FNPP, Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant; N/A, not applicable; CI, confidence interval.
