Correction to: Nature Communications 10.1038/s41467-023-36043-9, published online 25 January 2023

In the original version of this Article, Table 1 contained several rounding errors. The correct version of Table 1 is:

Table 1. Number of lakes, means (1SD; minimum–maximum) of the contemporary data from the USA, Denmark and the full dataset.

Variable USA Denmark All data
Number of lakes 122 780 902
Mean depth (m) 2.0 (0.7; 0.4–3.0) 1.1 (0.7; 0.0–3.0) 1.2 (0.8; 0.0–3.0)
Area (ha) 150.4 (389.0; 1.7–3179.2) 34.2 (114.0; 0.0–1713.0) 49.9 (182.1; 0.0–3179.2)
Chlorophyll a (µg L−1) 37.0 (44.2; 0.3–362.5) 63.8 (65.5; 0.0–520.1) 57.3 (62.1; 0.0–520.1)
Total nitrogen (mg L−1) 1.4 (1.1; 0.1–5.9) 1.7 (1.0; 0.3–6.0) 1.6 (1.0; 0.1–6.0)
Total phosphorus (µg L−1) 87.8 (84.9; 4.6–516.9) 179.2 (194.0; 4.4–1457.9) 157.2 (178.3; 4.4–1457.9)

which replaces the previous incorrect version:

Table 1. Number of lakes, means (1SD; minimum–maximum) of the contemporary data from the USA, Denmark and the full dataset.

Variable USA Denmark All data
Number of lakes 122 780 902
Mean depth (m) 2.0 (0.7; 0.4–3.0) 1.1 (0.7; 0.01–3.0) 1.2 (0.8; 0.01 – 3.0)
Area (ha) 150.0 (389.0; 1.7–3179.0) 34.2 (114.0; 0.04–1713) 50.0 (182.0; 0.04–3179)
Chlorophyll a (µg L−1) 37 (44.2; 0.3–362.0) 63.8 (65.5; 0.1 – 520.0) 57.3 (62.1; 0.02–520.0)
Total nitrogen (mg L−1) 1.4 (1.1;0.1–5.9) 1.7 (1.0; 0.3–6.0) 1.7 (1.0; 0.14–6.0)
Total phosphorus (µg L−1) 90 (80; 0–520) 180 (190; 0–1460) 160 (180; 0–1460)

This has now been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
