Number of transits needed to reach a 3σ detection using only the O₂ A-band (solid lines) vs. combining the A, B, and NIR bands (dashed lines). Blue is for a M4V host star. Black is for a M1V host star. The top panel only includes white noise. The bottom panel includes 20% red noise in the optical bands and 50% in the NIR band.
