2021 The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series 256 15.

Caption: Figure 6.

The stellar-mass density (in critical units, left) and star formation-rate density (right) in sliding distance windows of varying thickness, as detailed in the text. Density estimates are provided over the full sky as black solid lines, in the northern and southern hemispheres as blue dashed and orange dashed–dotted lines, respectively, and in the ZoA as brown dotted lines. Density estimates are shown in gray beyond 350 Mpc, where the sample is expected not to be flux limited. For reference, 68% confidence-level intervals from deep-field observations in the local universe are shown as green bands.
