Abstract :
Due to a combination of conversion factor and spreadsheet format errors, Table II in the original paper (ibid., vol. 57, no. 6, pp. 3135-3142, Dec. 2010) is incorrect. A corrected version of Table II is presented here. Also, the last sentence in Section IV should read: Not surprisingly, Composite Model 2, which weighs the CRRES results more heavily, predicts a dose ~3-8 times higher than the NASA models while Composite Model 1 is in the range of ~0.5 - 1.8 times the NASA models.
