Text Correction
The authors wish to make the following corrections to their paper [1]. There was an error in the original publication. The published Equations (5) and (8) had a typographical error in which the first square root term was presented as ( T e χ Z ) 1 / 2 but should be ( χ Z T e ) 1 / 2 according to Colombant and Tonon [2]. However, the simulations were performed using equations with the correct form of the factor.
A correction has been made to Section 2, The CR Model, Section 2.2, Basis of the Model, Paragraph 1, Equation (5):
α r ( Z , T e ) = 5.2 × 10 14 ( χ Z T e ) 1 / 2 Z [ 0.429 + 1 2 ln ( χ Z T e ) + 0.469 ( T e χ Z ) 1 / 2 ]           [ cm 3 s 1 ]
and to Section 2, The CR Model, Section 2.4 Correction to the Traditional CR Model, Paragraph 1, Equation (8):
α r ( Z , T e ) = 5.2 × 10 14 ( χ Z T e ) 1 / 2 Z [ 0.429 + 1 2 ln ( χ Z T e ) + 0.469 ( T e χ Z ) 1 / 3 ]           [ cm 3 s 1 ]
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
