Comparison of input and Monte Carlo (MC) output M_dust in DL07 simulations. Color coding is based on redshift, stellar mass, specific SFR, and M_dust relative uncertainty. As each dot belongs to an individual object, there is a general overlap of colors (green possibly hiding pink). The two diagrams belong to two independent simulations obtained with GOODS-S and COSMOS depths. Data points indicated in red have M_dust/σ(M_dust) < 3.
