Notes. The Si ii (λ = 1808 Å, 1526 Å) absorption lines are used to obtain metallicity by using the optically thin approximation and the Prochaska et al. (2008) correlation. The metallicity for GRB 080607 is based on Zn element. The metallicity could be solar or even super-solar for this burst (Prochaska et al. 2009).

(a)

The metallicity for GRB 080605 is based on the Si   ii line EW. Being at z < 2, H   i is not detected for this burst. Therefore it is not included in Figs. 4 and 9.
