Size–mass relation for the ﹩0.7\lt {z}_{\mathrm{grism}}\lt 2.5﹩ sample. The sizes of the points are scaled by their Σ1 values, and their colors are scaled by their redshift (star-forming galaxies in the CLEAR sample are shown as blue stars with no scaling). Size–mass relations for star-forming (blue) and quiescent (red) galaxies from van der Wel et al. (2014) are shown. These span a range from ﹩0.75\lt z\lt 2.25﹩ where the shading becomes darker with increasing redshift. Following the results of the simulations of Häussler et al. (2007), we add a 6% systematic error in quadrature to the ﹩{R}_{1/2}﹩ values to account for flux-dependent modeling uncertainties.
