This Article contains an error in the y-axis label of Figure 5, where the unit of measurement is incorrect.


“FCO2 (mmol m-1 day-1)” should read: “FCO2 (mmol m-2 day-1)”


The correct Figure 5 appears below as Figure 1.

Figure 1

A correct version of the original Figure 5. Monthly averages of net sea-air CO2 fluxes (FCO2) in the Gerlache Strait from January 2002 to December 2017 with an inset showing the variability throughout the year to characterize the seasonal cycle of FCO2 and the percentage of sea ice cover (filled blue bars). The gaps are from years when there was no winter sampling in the region. The blue bars oriented upwards are the standard deviations from the respective monthly averages, as are the black bars in the inset. Positive FCO2 values represent the outgassing of CO2 to the atmosphere, whereas negative FCO2 values represent CO2 uptake by the ocean.
