Corrigendum: Invasive Aquatic Plants as Ecosystem Engineers in an Oligo-Mesotrophic Shallow Lake

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 8 as published. An error was made while converting carbon flux values from moles to grams. As a consequence, the original figure showed diffusive carbon fluxes which were lower than real ones. The corrected Figure 8 appears below.

Figure 8

Further, due to the same error outlined above, the carbon budget extended to the annual period and lake scale was incorrect.

A correction has therefore been made to the Results section, subsection Seasonal Nutrients and Carbon Budget, paragraph three:

“Coherently with concentrations measured at the surface of the water column, diffusive carbon fluxes calculated at the water–air interface followed a seasonal pattern (Figure 8). At vegetated stands, the highest value was recorded in spring (99.2 ± 104.8 mg C m⁻² d⁻¹) and the lowest in summer (4.9 ± 32.3 mg C m⁻² d⁻¹); at plant-free sites, the highest value was recorded in spring (28.0 ± 28.9 mg C m⁻² d⁻¹) and the lowest in autumn (8.0 ± 4.6 mg C m⁻² d⁻¹). Overall, the major contribution to diffusive carbon fluxes was given by CO₂, and only in a minor part by CH₄, with the summer period at vegetated sites as solely exception. At the annual scale, during the growing season of the plants (March to November), we can estimate that vegetated stands release 13.9 ± 1.2 g C m⁻² year⁻¹, while plant-free sites release 4.6 ± 0.3 g C m⁻² year⁻¹. When upscaling to the lake scale, we can estimate that dense vegetated stands emit 17 ± 1 tons C per growing season, whereas plant-free areas emit, in the same period, an estimated amount of 69 ± 4 tons C.”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
