Notes. (1) Hubble type as listed in the LEDA data base (URL: http://leda.univ-lyon1.fr/). (2) Distance according to Walter et al. (2008). (3) Peak of the rotation curve as obtained from the Appendix in de Blok et al. (2008). (4) R25 is the B-band isophotal radius at 25 mag arcsec-2, which is a standard proxy for the optical radius of the galaxy. (5) Total HI mass of the galaxy, obtained by integrating over all pixels, see also Table 4 of Leroy et al. (2008)(6) Total star formation rate of the galaxy, as provided by Table 1 of Walter et al. (2008) or Table 4 of Leroy et al. (2008). (7) Surface-density weighted 3-dimensional mean velocity dispersion in the galaxy. (8) Mean HI surface density. (9) Typical outer scale of the turbulent velocity field. $\langle L_{\rm d} \rangle_{\rm HD}$ is calculated from the disk thickness in each pixel as $L_{\rm d} = 2 H$ with $H = \sigma_{\rm 1D}^2 / (2 \pi G \Sigma_{\rm HI})$ and then averaged over the entire galaxy using surface-density weighting.  (10) Estimate of the mean turbulent dissipation scale $\langle L_{\rm d} \rangle_{\rm pot}$ based on the disk thickness derived from the potential method, Eq. (13).
