TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the global scaling relations associated with the bin-averaged ratio of the SFR over the H I mass (i.e. ΣSFR/ΣM_(HI)), which they call the HI-based star formation efficiency (SFE), and interpret these results as an indication that external processes or feedback mechanisms that control the gas supply are important for regulating star formation in massive galaxies.
