This Article contains a typographical error in the Methods section under subheading ‘Image processing and automated supraglacial lake identification and mapping’ where,

“This equation (Eq. 1) was therefore used to classify each image into ‘water’ or ‘no-water’ regions using a threshold value that was interactively selected:

$$NDWI=\frac{Green-NIR}{Green+NIR}$$

where ‘Green’ is Band 3 of the Sentinel imagery and Band 3 of the Landsat 8 imagery, and ‘NIR’ is Band 4 of the Sentinel imagery and Band 5 of the Landsat imagery”

should read:

“This equation (Eq. 1) was therefore used to classify each image into ‘water’ or ‘no-water’ regions using a threshold value that was interactively selected:

$$NDWI=\frac{Green-NIR}{Green+NIR}$$

where ‘Green’ is Band 3 of the Sentinel imagery and Band 3 of the Landsat 8 imagery, and ‘NIR’ is Band 8 of the Sentinel imagery and Band 5 of the Landsat imagery”
