Caption: Figure 19.

RM grids of the EL, EM, EC, and GL observations with no median filter applied. The markers indicate the presence of a polarized component at that location in the observation. Positive RMs are red and negative RMs are blue, while the depth of the color indicates the magnitude of the RM. Circle and star markers denote Faraday simple and complex components, respectively. Crosses indicate Faraday simple components where the RM is consistent with 0 within the uncertainty.
