Spearman rank correlation coefficients between the AME amplitude (Asp) and IR/submillimetre flux densities.

All AME Non-AME

100 μm 0.85 ± 0.02 (0.90 ± 0.02) 0.83 ± 0.03 (0.68 ± 0.06) 0.84 ± 0.07 (0.81 ± 0.08)
60 μm 0.81 ± 0.03 (0.89 ± 0.02) 0.80 ± 0.03 (0.78 ± 0.05) 0.81 ± 0.07 (0.82 ± 0.08)
25 μm 0.82 ± 0.03 (0.89 ± 0.03) 0.84 ± 0.03 (0.74 ± 0.05) 0.82 ± 0.07 (0.85 ± 0.08)
12 μm 0.84 ± 0.03 (0.86 ± 0.03) 0.78 ± 0.03 (0.58 ± 0.06) 0.85 ± 0.07 (0.83 ± 0.08)

Notes. The correlation for AME regions is much stronger. In parentheses is the correlation coefficient after dividing the IR/submillimetre flux density by G0 to account for the variation in the interstellar radiation field. Generally, the correlation is tighter after dividing by G0. Note that we have omitted the outlier source G239.4004.70 at 12 μm and 25 μm (see text).
