The [CII]-to-molecular gas conversion factor evolves from over 10,000 to about 10 solar masses per solar luminosity as galaxies enrich from very low metallicity at high redshift to higher values later, making a redshift-independent factor unusable.

Cosmic evolution of the [CII]-to-molecular gas relation
The [CII]-to-molecular gas conversion factor evolves from over 10,000 to about 10 solar masses per solar luminosity as galaxies enrich from very low metallicity at high redshift to higher values later, making a redshift-independent factor unusable.
