Text Correction
There was an error in the original publication [1]. The unit for area used is wrong and the sizes of the Budongo and Bugoma Central Forest Reserves used are inadvertently wrong.
A correction has been made to 2. Materials and Methods, 2.1 Study area on page 4 of 26, from the 4th to the 6th line:
“The landscape has LULC classes protected by national legislation totaling approximately 4305.8 Km2 including inter alia; Budongo CFR (825 Km2), Bugoma CFR (411.42 Km2), Open water (2866.21 Km2).”
Error in Figure
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 2, Schematic diagram of the research methods, used in the study as published. The tiles for Key Informant Interviews/Focus Group Discussion/Household survey) reflect them as data yet they are a technique of data capture. Similarly, the ecosystem service matrix/order of importance of the ecosystem services/perceived drivers of LULCC are misrepresented. The corrected Figure 2, Schematic diagram of the research methods used in the study, appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 5, Predicted LULC gain and loss for Budongo–Bugoma landscape under different scenarios, as published. For all the LULC classes, the two bars for the 25% and 50% forest restoration prediction scenarios are the same due to an error during data handling/transfer. The corrected Figure 5, Predicted LULC gain and loss for Budongo–Bugoma landscape under different scenarios, appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
