Notes.SFRHidden corresponds to the percentage of SFRD in dust, SFRDTOT is the total (i.e., FUV + FIR) SFRD, and β is the mean slope estimated for the galaxies in the FUV sample. Lower integration limits are and , upper limits are .

(a)

Calibrated from log 10LDIR/LDUV using Burgarella et al. (2005). Changing the integration limits to log 10(L [L⊙] ) =  [4, 14] (resp. [9, 14]) in FUV and [5, 14] (resp. [10, 14]) in FIR would change AFUV by <0.1 (resp. ~− 0.2 ) at z ~ 3–4 and <0.05 below z < 2.

(b)

Calibrated from LDUV using Kennicutt (1998).

(c)

Calibrated from LDIR using Kennicutt (1998).

(d)

Computed as SFRDUV + SFRDIR. Note that the values presented in this column are higher than SFRDFUV + SFRDFUV from the two previous columns because they are the mean of the 2000 realizations estimated from the LFs, which happen to be above the sum of the SFRDs estimated by Cucciati et al. (2012) and Gruppioni et al. (2013). Changing the integration limits to log 10(L [L⊙] ) =  [4,14] (resp. [9, 14]) in FUV and [5, 14] (resp. [10, 14]) in FIR would change SFRDTOT by less than +8% (resp. –8%) at z ≤ 2.7 but by + 56% and +158% at zmean = 3.15 and zmean = 3.6 (resp. –15% and –32%).

(e)

Computed as SFRDUV/SFRDIR.

(h)

This column presents the mean β only for the objects detected in the UV.
