Table 3.

Binning scheme for VIPERS and SDSS samples according to the property to bin.

	VIPERS		SDSS
Property	Range	Method	Range	Method
log M_⋆[M_⊙]	Whole	Equal 0.15 dex width bins	log M_⋆ < 9.0	Two bins with equal number of galaxies
			9.0 ≤ log M_⋆ ≤ 11.5	Equal 0.15 dex width bins
			log M_⋆ > 11.5	Two bins with equal number of galaxies
log SFR[M_⊙ yr⁻¹]	Whole	Equal 0.15 dex width bins	logSFR < −1	Two bins with equal number of galaxies
			logSFR ≥ −1	Equal 0.15 dex width bins
logsSFR[yr⁻¹]	Whole	Equal 0.15 dex width bins	Whole	Equal 0.15 dex width bins
