The index $v$ stands for ``variable'' (above $T_{\rm h}$), $b$ means below $T_{\rm h}$, $nv$~stands for ``non-variable'' and $pv$ stands for ``possibly variable''. In the cases ``A vs. B'', $B={\rm OB}_{i}$ corresponds to $N_{\rm tot} = 1480$, $229$ or $576$; while A corresponds to $N_{i}$. } \vspace*{4mm} \end{table}
