Caption: Figure 8.

Effective area density of Lyα forest sightlines over the redshift range of the CLAMATO tomographic reconstruction. The right axis labels the equivalent mean separation between sightlines, ﹩\langle {d}_{\perp }\rangle ﹩. The peak sightline density is ﹩1099\,{\deg }^{-2}﹩ at ﹩{z}_{\alpha }=2.32﹩, corresponding to ﹩\langle {d}_{\perp }\rangle =2.04\,{h}^{-1}\,\mathrm{Mpc}﹩.
