We present the dust mass function (DMF) of 15,750 galaxies with redshift $z< 0.1$, drawn from the overlapping area of the GAMA and {it H-}ATLAS surveys. The DMF is derived using the density corrected $V_{rm max}$ method, where we estimate $V_{rm max}$ using: (i) the normal photometric selection limit ($pV_{rm max}$) and (ii) a bivariate brightness distribution (BBD) technique, which accounts for two selection effects. We fit the data with a Schechter function, and find $M^{*}=(4.65pm0.18)times 10^{7},h^2_{70}, M_{odot}$, $alpha=(1.22pm 0.01)$, $phi^{*}=(6.26pm 0.28)times 10^{-3},h^3_{70},rm Mpc^{-3},dex^{-1}$. The resulting dust mass density parameter integrated down to $10^4,M_{odot}$ is $Omega_{rm d}=(1.11 pm0.02)times 10^{-6}$ which implies the mass fraction of baryons in dust is $f_{m_b}=(2.40pm0.04)times 10^{-5}$; cosmic variance adds an extra 7-17,per,cent uncertainty to the quoted statistical errors. Our measurements have fewer galaxies with high dust mass than predicted by semi-analytic models. This is because the models include too much dust in high stellar mass galaxies. Conversely, our measurements find more galaxies with high dust mass than predicted by hydrodynamical cosmological simulations. This is likely to be from the long timescales for grain growth assumed in the models. We calculate DMFs split by galaxy type and find dust mass densities of $Omega_{rm d}=(0.88pm0.03)times 10^{-6}$ and $Omega_{rm d}=(0.060pm0.005)times 10^{-6}$ for late-types and early-types respectively. Comparing to the equivalent galaxy stellar mass functions (GSMF) we find that the DMF for late-types is well matched by the GMSF scaled by $(8.07pm0.35) times 10^{-4}$.
Using results from the Herschel Astrophysical Terrahertz Large-Area Survey and the Galaxy and Mass Assembly project, we show that, for galaxy masses above approximately 1.0e8 solar masses, 51% of the stellar mass-density in the local Universe is in e
We use spectral stacking to measure the contribution of galaxies of different masses and in different hierarchies to the cosmic atomic hydrogen (HI) mass density in the local Universe. Our sample includes 1793 galaxies at $z < 0.11$ observed with the
We present a comparison of the observed evolving galaxy stellar mass functions with the predictions of eight semi-analytic models and one halo occupation distribution model. While most models are able to fit the data at low redshift, some of them str
Using a combined and consistently analysed GAMA, G10-COSMOS, and 3D-HST dataset we explore the evolution of the galaxy stellar-mass function over lookback times $t_{rm L} in left[0.2,12.5right] {rm h^{-1}_{70} Gyr}$. We use a series of volume limited
We apply the spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting code ProSpect to multiwavelength imaging for $sim$7,000 galaxies from the GAMA survey at $z<0.06$, in order to extract their star formation histories. We combine a parametric description of the
