The GAMA mass-metallicity (upper left), mass-SFR (upper right) and metallicity-SFR (lower-middle) relationships in our main sample. Black and coloured contours show 2σ contours for the main and volume limited samples with median redshifts as labelled, respectively. Red and black solid lines show the fitted SDSS MMR from KE08 using the updated KD02 conversion and our fit to the GAMA data, respectively. Open circles in the lower panel show the expected mean metallicity and SFR as inferred from the mean mass using Eqs. (9) and (10) for the lowest, intermediate and highest redshift bins. The actual mean metallicity and SFR for these samples are shown with crosses (see Sect. 4.3).
