A Corrigendum on
Fire Responses to the 2010 and 2015/2016 Amazonian Droughts
by Silva Junior, C. H. L., Anderson, L. O., Silva, A. L., Almeida, C. T., Dalagnol, R., Pletsch, M. A. J. S., et al. (2019). Front. Earth Sci. 7: 97. doi: 10. 3389/feart. 2019. 00097
In the original article, there were two typos in the Abstract. In the following sentence: “ The two analyzed droughts emitted together 0. 47 Pg CO 2 , with 0. 23 Pg CO 2 in 2010, 0. 15 Tg CO 2 in 2015 and 0. 09 Tg CO 2 in 2016, which represented, respectively, 209%, 136%, 82% of annual Brazil’s national target for reducing carbon emissions from deforestation by 2017 (approximately 0. 11 Pg CO 2 year −1 from 2006 to 2017).”, the correct unit of measurement is “ Pg” and not “ Tg” as written in the published version.
A correction has been made to Abstract :
The two analyzed droughts emitted together 0. 47 Pg CO 2 , with 0. 23 Pg CO 2 in 2010, 0. 15 Pg CO 2 in 2015 and 0. 09 Pg CO 2 in 2016, which represented, respectively, 209%, 136%, 82% of annual Brazil’s national target for reducing carbon emissions from deforestation by 2017 (approximately 0. 11 Pg CO 2 year −1 from 2006 to 2017).
