Beckman for their many helpful comments and discussion on the content of the paper. ; We apply fossil record techniques to the CALIFA sample to study how galaxies in the Local Universe have evolved in terms of their chemical content.We show how the stellar metallicity and the mass–metallicity relation (MZR) evolve through time for the galaxies in our sample and how this evolution varies when we divide them based on their mass, morphology, and star-forming status. We also check the impact of measuring the metallicity at the centre or the outskirts. We find the expected results that the most massive galaxies were enriched more quickly, and that theMZR was steeper at higher redshifts. However, once we separate the galaxies into morphology bins this behaviour is less clear, which suggests that morphology is a primary factor in determining how quickly a galaxy becomes enriched, but with mass determining the final enrichment.We also find that star-forming galaxies (SFGs) appear to be asymptotic in their chemical evolution; that is, the metallicity of SFGs of any mass is very similar at recent times unlike several Gyr ago. ; Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnologia (CONACyT) CB-285080 FC-2016-01-1916 ; Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico PAPIIT-DGAPA-IN100519 ; European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant 839090 ; Spanish grant within the European Funds for Regional Development (FEDER) PGC2018-095317-B-C21

The data for 200 objects are made public, including the 100 galaxies of the First Public Data Release (DR1). Data were obtained with the integral-field spectrograph PMAS/PPak mounted on the 3.5 m telescope at the Calar Alto observatory. Two different spectral setups are available for each galaxy, (i) a lowresolution V500 setup covering the wavelength range 3745–7500 Å with a spectral resolution of 6.0 Å (FWHM); and (ii) a medium-resolution V1200 setup covering the wavelength range 3650–4840 Å with a spectral resolution of 2.3 Å (FWHM). The sample covers a redshift range between 0.005 and 0.03, with a wide range of properties in the color–magnitude diagram, stellar mass, ionization conditions, and morphological types. All the cubes in the data release were reduced with the latest pipeline, which includes improved spectrophotometric calibration, spatial registration, and spatial resolution. The spectrophotometric calibration is better than 6% and the median spatial resolution is 200 : 4. In total, the second data release contains over 1.5 million spectra. ; Instituto de Salud Carlos III Spanish Government AYA2010-15081 AYA2010-15196 ; European Union (EU) PCIG12-GA-2012-326466 ; Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO) AYA2010-21322-C03-02 AIB-2010-DE-00227 ; FP7 Marie Curie Actions of the European Commission, via the Initial Training Network DAGAL under REA 289313 ; Ministry of Economy, Development, and Tourism's Millennium Science Initiative IC12009 ; Comision Nacional de Investigacion Cientifica y Tecnologica (CONICYT) CONICYT FONDECYT 3140566 ; Fundacao para a Ciencia e a Tecnologia (FCT) from FCT (Portugal) SFRH/BPD/66958/2009 ; Spanish programme of International Campus of Excellence Moncloa (CEI) ; European Research Council (ERC) ; Junta de Andalucia TIC 114 PO08-TIC-3531 ; French National Research Agency (ANR) ANR-12-BS05-0016-02 ; Spanish Government AYA2010-21887-C04-02 ; FCT Investigador Contract - FCT/MCTES (Portugal) ; European Commission Joint Research Centre European Social Fund (ESF) ; FCT - FCT-MEC (PIDDAC) FCOMP-01-0124-FEDER-029170 FCT PTDC/FIS-AST/3214/2012 ; European Union (EU) ; Spanish Ministerio de Educacion, Cultura y Deporte by FPU ; Ramon y Cajal program from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO) ATA2010-21322-C03-02 ; European Union (EU) 303912 ; European Career Re-integration Grant ; Spanish Government RyC-2011-09461 AYA2013-47742-C4-3-P ; European Union (EU) FP7-PEOPLE-2013-IRSES-612701 ; PTDC/FIS-AST/3214/2012 ; Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC) ST/K000985/1
