It also includes a [GeoJSON](https://github.com/SantanderMetGroup/2023_Milovac_SSTvsGWL/blob/main/Physical-climate-assessment-reference-regions-v5/Physical-climate-assessment-reference-regions-v4.1.geojson) version and the coordinates of the polygon vertices. Both the shapefile and the GeoJSON have a resolution of 0.44 degrees between the coordinates forming the polygons.
