Riassunto

Figure 1. 4: First order neighbours (a) and second order neighbours (b) of a reference area. a shows the first-order neighbours of a reference area, while Figure 1. While it is clear that the dependence is strongest between immediate neighbouring areas a certain degree of dependence may be present among higher-order neighbours.
