Fig. 7From: Spatially and temporally distributed data foraging decisions in disciplinary field scienceExpert geoscientists’ (a) fitting error by effective coverage, and (b) distribution of final fitting error. Fitting error was computed using the data each participant actually received, drawn from datasets corresponding to the given hypothesis (blue) and the alternative-unknown hypothesis (green). The dashed lines of the corresponding colors show the representative fitting error for each dataset, i.e., the fitting error if all possible (220) measurements in that dataset were collectedBack to article page
