英文摘要We investigate the resolved relation between local extinction and star formation surface density within nearby star-forming galaxies selected from the MaNGA survey. Balmer decrement measurements imply an extinction of the Ha line emission that scales approximately linearly with the logarithm of the star formation surface density: A(H alpha) = 0.46 log(Sigma(SFR)) + 1.53. Secondary dependencies are observed such that, at a given Sigma(SFR), regions of lower metallicity and/or enhanced H alpha equivalent width (EW) suffer less obscuration than regions of higher metallicity and/or lower H alpha EW. Spaxels lying above the mean relation also tend to belong to galaxies that are more massive, larger, and viewed under higher inclination than average. We present a simple model in which the observed trends can be accounted for by a metallicity-dependent scaling between Sigma(SFR) and Sigma(dust) via a superlinear Kennicutt-Schmidt relation (n(KS) similar to 1.47) and a dust-to-gas ratio that scales linearly with metallicity (DGR(Z(circle dot)) = 0.01). The relation between the resulting total dust column and observed effective extinction toward nebular regions requires a geometry for the relative distribution of H alpha-emitting regions and dust that deviates from a uniform foreground screen and also from an entirely homogeneous mixture of dust and emitting sources. The best-fit model features an H alpha EW and galactocentric-distance-dependent fraction of the dust mass in a clumpy foreground screen in front of a homogeneous mixture.
