The phrase “FIA data” incorrectly appears several times in the paper and in the legend for Table 1. The correct phrase is “early historical data.” Please see the corrected Table 1 below.

Table 1. Reconstructions of fire rotation (FR) for high-severity fire in historical dry forests of the western USA, with corroborating evidence from sedimentary charcoal studies.

The phrase “FIA data” incorrectly appears three times in the section, “Comparing fire rotations in recent historical periods.”

The seventh sentence should be: “Thus, as a first approximation, I used the range of available estimates from GLO data, early historical data, and aerial photographs, which is 217–849 years (Table 1), as the standard to compare with recent rates in each region.”

The twenty-eighth sentence should be: “Using the best available data on historical rates of high-severity fire, which included estimates from GLO reconstructions, analysis of early aerial photography, and early historical data (Table 1), I classified recent high-severity fire rotations, relative to the range of historical fire rotations, which is 217–849 years (Table 1).”

The thirtieth sentence should be: “To evaluate future projected increases in high-severity fire, I compared projected high-severity fire rotations to the historical high-severity fire rotations estimated by GLO, aerial photo, and early historical data, and classified the outcomes as above (e.g., too long).”
