aThe column densities measured from individual transitions are listed in the penultimate column (log [N0/cm−2]), while the adopted column density for the species is listed in the final column (log [N/cm−2]). The adopted column density of a given species was obtained by a weighted mean of the measured column densities from all unsaturated lines. All limits are at 3σ significance.

bNote that the Fe ii λ2586 line in the z = 0.2378 DLA towards 0952+179 and the Mg i line in the z = 0.3127 DLA towards 1127−145 are both close to saturation. If the lines are saturated, the quoted column densities would be lower limits.

aThe column densities measured from individual transitions are listed in the penultimate column (log [N0/cm−2]), while the adopted column density for the species is listed in the final column (log [N/cm−2]). The adopted column density of a given species was obtained by a weighted mean of the measured column densities from all unsaturated lines. All limits are at 3σ significance.

bNote that the Fe ii λ2586 line in the z = 0.2378 DLA towards 0952+179 and the Mg i line in the z = 0.3127 DLA towards 1127−145 are both close to saturation. If the lines are saturated, the quoted column densities would be lower limits.
