APPENDIX

A. EXCLUDED WAVELENGTH REGIONS

Here, we explicitly define the wavelength regions that were excluded from our analysis for having severe telluric contamination or insufficient signal-to-noise ratios (especially at the edges of the spectral orders). The excluded regions for the IGRINS data are shown in Table 3.
