Appendix A: Non detections

GASPS is a flux-limited survey. All sources have detection limits for the o-H2O line at 63.32 μm around 10-17 W/m2, with an uncertainty of a factor of two both ways. The list of non detections is given in Table A.1.

Appendix B: Location of emission for H2O lines

Location of the H2O emission for a typical disc model (M = 0.8   M, L = 0.7   L, Teff = 4400   K, UV excess fUV = 0.01, X-ray luminosity LX = 1030 erg s-1, Rin = 0.1 AU, Rout = 300 AU, Mdisc = 0.01   M, dust/gas = 0.01, ϵ =  −1, scale height H0 = 1 AU at r0 = 10 AU, flaring β = 1.1, astronomical silicate with uniform dust size distribution amin = 0.05 μm, amax = 1 mm, and index = 3.5). The 15.738 μm line is used as a typical H2O line detected by Spitzer. We have marked the radii where the cumulative line flux reaches 15% and 85% with vertical lines, for the four selected H2O lines. In addition, the horizontal lines mark the heights above the midplane where 15% and 85% of the line flux, from every vertical column, originate in. The encircled regions are hence responsible for 70% × 70% = 49% of the total line flux (for a pole-on disc).
