In the published article, there was an error in the legends for Figure 4 and Figure 5. The figures themselves are in the correct order, but their legends were reversed. The corrected legends appear below.
The correct legend for Figure 4 is:
Figure 4
Annual variations of 7 days average sea ice concentration prior to sampling period, sea ice retreat timing (SIRT), and sea ice retreat speed (SIRS) in the east and the west sides of the NCESS during the cruises.
“Annual variations of 7 days average sea ice concentration prior to sampling period, sea ice retreat timing (SIRT), and sea ice retreat speed (SIRS) in the east and the west sides of the NCESS during the cruises.”
The correct legend for Figure 5 is:
Figure 5
Annual variations in environmental variables derived from the vertical profiles of environmental variables during cruises. The box plot represents the data on the east and west sides during six-year cruises. The central mark in the box is the median, and the edges of the box are the 25th and 75th marks. Abbreviations: BVF, mean Brunt–Väisälä buoyancy frequency (N2, s-2) upper 100 m depth; Zeu, euphotic depth (m); Znc, nitracline depth (m); Zscm, subsurface chlorophyll maximum depth (m).
