Figures’ Caption Correction

In the original publication [1], there was an error in the captions of Figure 1 and Figure 4. At the time of preparing the first draft of the paper and during the peer review process, the authors were unaware that the reuse of previously published figures in an open-access article by the same authors required a copyright statement. This omission was unintentional and resulted from a misunderstanding of the specific copyright requirements. The correct captions for Figure 1 and Figure 4, containing the image source from reference [2], numbered as [35] in the original paper, are shown below:

• Figure 1. (a) A location map of the study area, including a geological map that shows the lithologic distribution and the precise location of Gebel El Dist. (b) The lithostratigraphic sequence includes an elevation log that displays grain density, porosity, and permeability measurements, along with the sampling locations. The figure also shows the following: Sample Number (S), Facies Association (FA), Lowstand Systems Tract (LST), Highstand Systems Tract (HST), Transgressive Systems Tract (TST), Surface of Unconformity (SU), Wave Ravinement Surface (WRS), Maximum Regression Surface (MRS), and Maximum Flooding Surface (MFS). (b) is taken from Guirguis et al. [35], under the terms of the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license.

• Figure 4. Photomicrographs and SEM images of QA and QW facies. (a) Laminated QA, showing sub-rounded quartz grains (ɸ = 39%, k = 37.93 mD). (b) Glauconitic QW, featuring sub-angular quartz grains (ɸ = 28%, k = 11.24 mD). (c) Ferruginous QW, showing sub-angular grains with extensive cementation by iron oxyhydroxides (ɸ = 24%, k = 8.92 mD). (d) SEM image of QA, highlighting well-connected pore spaces (ɸ = 39%, k = 37.93 mD). (e) SEM image of QW, demonstrating lower porosity compared to the QA in (d) (ɸ = 28%, k = 11.24 mD). (f) QW showing a sub-angular quartz grain embedded in a matrix of rusty brown, iron-rich dolomite cement (ɸ = 28%, k = 11.24 mD). Images a, b, c, d, and f were taken under cross-polarized light (crossed Nicols). (a,d,f) are reproduced from Guirguis et al. [35], under the terms of the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license.

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
