Correction to “Pyro‐cumulonimbus injection of smoke to the stratosphere: Observations and impact of a super blowup in northwestern Canada on 3–4 August 1998”

[1] In the paper ‘‘Pyro-cumulonimbus injection of smoke to the stratosphere: Observations and impact of a super blowup in northwestern Canada on 3–4 August 1998’’ by M. Fromm, R. Bevilacqua, R. Servranckx, J. Rosen, J. P. Thayer, J. Herman, and D. Larko (Journal of Geophysical Research, 110, D08205, doi:10.1029/2004JD005350), the following was left out of the Acknowledgments section. [2] We thank all the referees for their thorough and constructive criticism of the manuscript. The POAM III instrument was sponsored by the Office of Naval Research. The French Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales operates the SPOT 4 spacecraft and has generously waived the uplink fees. Launch and initial operation of POAM were sponsored by the Air Force Space Test Program; continuing operations are performed by the Air Force Space and Missile Command. Support for scientific analysis of the data comes from the Naval Research Laboratory and NASA. JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 110, D12202, doi:10.1029/2005JD006171, 2005
