In the Commentary 'No pause in the increase of hot temperature extremes' (Nature Climate Change 4, 161–163; 2014) references 12 and 18 were incorrect, and should have appeared as:

12. IPCC, 2012: Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation (eds Field, C. B. et al.) (Cambridge Univ. Press, 2012).

18. Seneviratne, S. I. et al. in IPCC, 2012: Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation (eds Field C. B. et al.) 109–230 (IPCC, Cambridge Univ. Press, 2012).

These have now been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions after print 25 March 2014.
