Abstract:
    We use the first data release from the Survey for Ionization in
    Neutral-Gas Galaxies (SINGG) Hα survey of HI-selected galaxies
    to study the quantitative behavior of the diffuse, warm ionized medium
    (WIM) across the range of properties represented by these 109 galaxies.

Note on table1.dat:
     the multiple source J0514-61 was omitted owing to processing problems,
     so the sample has less galaxies than the full SR1 sample.

Note (1): Galaxies identified as HIPASS JHHMM+DDa
     or SINGG HIPASS JHHMM+DD SN in Simbad
Note (2): Flags on OptID as follows:
      b = Galaxy identified in the Automatic Plate Measuring facility
          survey (Maddox et al. 1990MNRAS.243..692M); full APM designation
          available via NED.
      c = Full designation is 2MASX J02243002-2444441
Note (3): Derived primarily from the HI radial velocities using the
     distance model of Mould et al. (2000ApJ...529..786M), with optical
     distances to the nearest sources taken from the Catalog of Neighboring
     Galaxies (Karachentsev et al., 2004, Cat. J/AJ/127/2031).
Note (4): In units of erg/s/kpc2.
