Notes. For each relation, observed and derived quantities are indicated, as well as slope and intercept of the linear relation, with associated uncertainties. Relations are given in the form: Derived = Slope × Observed + Intercept.

(a)

Spectroscopic requirements, when needed.

(b)

Reference to the section in the paper where the relation has been derived.

(c)

Rest-frame. The convention of positive EW for emission lines is adopted.

AIRX is the attenuation towards the stellar continuum at λ = 1500 Å. The attenuation for the [OII]λ3727 line is defined as A[OII] = AIRX × (κHα/κ1500 Å) × f-1, where κλ is the reddening curve. Assuming a Calzetti law for both the stellar continuum and nebular emission we estimate f = 0.50. Assuming instead a Cardelli et al. (1989) law for nebular emission and Calzetti law for the stellar continuum we estimate f = 0.37 (Sect. 6.2).
