Abstract

Correction for ‘Why is high persistence alone a major cause of concern?’ by Ian T. Cousins et al., Environ. Sci.: Processes Impacts, 2019, DOI: 10.1039/c8em00515j.


In the original article, some of the concentration values on the y-axis of Fig. 2(ii) were incorrect. The corrected Fig. 2 is shown below.

Fig. 2 Concentrations of chemicals C (panel (i)) and D (panel (ii)) as function of time in the scenario with dynamic emissions. For both chemicals, emissions start in year 0, increase by 10 mol h−1 every year, peak in year 10 at a value of 100 mol h−1, then decrease by 10 mol h−1 every year, and end in year 20. Note the much higher levels of chemical D compared to chemical C.
