33. A small bias field does not significantly alter the relaxation dynamics; the error added to spectral densities is (Equation presented).

37. The magnetic field is isotropic assuming that surface spins are randomly oriented and the NV center's spin is at an angle of (Equation presented) from the surface normal (see Supplemental Material [36]).
38. We note that while the entire noise spectral density could, in principle, be mapped out by field cycling [31], these measurements are impractical due to the long acquisition times involved and yield ambiguous results due to the field dependence of surface spin dynamics.
