ROIs for analysing the spatial patterns in GB and AU

Sampling areas	Spatial index	Changing with location	Changing with size (Ten in one group)	Changing with shape (Seven in one group)
Sampling areas	Spatial index	Coordinates of centroid of ROI (x- and y-index)	ROI size	spa
GB	ROIs of 1x1 km grid
	Size	500 km²	from 10 to 1025 km²	500 km² each ROI
	No.	88 in total	81 × 10 = 810 in total	74 × 7 = 518 in total
AU	ROIs of 5x5 km grid
	Size	500 km²	from 125 to 9900 km²	5000 km² each ROI
	No.	679 in total	627×10=6270 in total	378×7=2646 in total
