Corrigendum to "The relationship between tree biodiversity and biomass dynamics changes with tropical forest succession"

In a recent paper (Lasky et al. 2014), we used incorrect language to describe how we calculated biomass dynamics attributable to stem mortality. We wrote incorrectly “For Dbiomass due to mortality, we calculated the biomass of surviving stems divided by the total original biomass, i.e. the numerator on the right side of eqn 5 was restricted to stems alive in both years t and t + 5” (Lasky et al. 2014). Instead, we actually calculated Dbiomass due to mortality by taking the biomass in year t of stems that survived to year t + 5 divided by the total biomass of all stems in year t. We thank Nadia Castro for uncovering our error.
