Underlying number density of strong Mg II systems and the fraction of dusty absorbers that match the observed abundance of Mg II systems (solid line) and the observed fraction of absorbers along very reddened lines of sight (dashed line) in the SDSS. The dotted lines mark the 0, 1, 2, and 3 σ Poisson fluctuations for the observed density along GRBs.
