False-positive rate as a function of trend strength and sample size. Left and right subplots show results for two different threshold values for the Bayes factor required to detect an injected trend in albedo. Contours are shown for a 1% and 5% false-positive rate. Weaker trends and smaller samples of exoEarths have higher false-positive rates.
