“Particularly, Tian & Ida (2015) argued that Earth-mass planets with Earth-like water contents orbiting M-dwarfs have a 10-100 times reduced likelihood than around G dwarfs.”
From ABOUT EXOBIOLOGY: THE CASE FOR DWARF K STARS (2016) · cites this paper as Tian & Ida (2015)
In the citing paper
“It has also been pointed out that accreting planets, if formed, subsequently located in the CLI-HZ around stars cooler than K5 (including the full range of M-dwarfs) are most likely subjected to runaway greenhouse processes”

In the citing paper
“and thus may lose substantial amounts of water initially delivered to them (Ramirez & Kaltenegger 2014; Luger & Barnes 2015; Tian & Ida 2015), thus emerging as (almost certainly) uninhabitable dry planets ('desert worlds').”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
