The authors of the published paper [1] would like to make the following corrections: (1) In the title of Table 2, the “100 RMB·kg−2·a−1” need to be changed into “100 RMB·km−2”.

Table 2. Ecological value coefficient corresponding to the land-use type (100 RMB·kg−2·a−1).
Corrected:
Table 2. Ecological value coefficient corresponding to the land-use type (100 RMB·km−2).
(2) In the Table 5, the “108 RMB” needs to be changed into “1010 RMB”.

(3) In Section 3.2.2, The unit—“km−2” in “the low value area (0–3.72 × 106 RMB·km−2), lower value area (3.72 × 106–5.58 × 106 RMB·km−2), medium value area (5.58 × 106–7.73 × 106 RMB·km−2), higher value area (7.73 × 106–11.28 × 106 RMB·km−2), and high value area (11.28 × 106–14.38 × 106 RMB·km−2)” need to be deleted, which is completely superfluous and prone to misunderstanding.
Original: Combined with the natural break point method, the ESV of the Dongting Lake Basin was divided into five levels: the low value area (0–3.72 × 106 RMB·km−2), lower value area (3.72 × 106–5.58 × 106 RMB·km−2), medium value area (5.58 × 106–7.73 × 106 RMB·km−2), higher value area (7.73 × 106–11.28 × 106 RMB·km−2), and high value area (11.28 × 106–14.38 × 106 RMB·km−2).
