The original manuscript presented evidence that the deposits studied were fluvial rather than marine to support the conclusion that evidence of life on land had been discovered in the 3.4 Ga Dresser Formation, Pilbara Craton, Australia.
The authors acknowledge that the following reference, which was omitted, should have been cited to provide more detailed sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence that the deposits studied were indeed fluvial rather than marine.
