Correction to: Scientific Report 10.1038/s41598-019-53055-y, published online 13 November 2019

At one point in the Article, the Authors incorrectly cite the wrong paper by Bhushan and colleagues in the ‘Geodetic mass balance for 2000–2014’ subsection of the Results and Discussion. The correct paper is included below as ref. 1. As a result,

“While Bhushan et al.9 estimated the specific mass balance of Gangotri as −0.55 ± 0.42 m. w. eq. a−1 from 2006–2014, our results project a similar specific mass change of −0.54 ± 0.03 m. w. eq. a−1 for the period 2000–2014.”

should read:

“While Bhushan et al.1 estimated the specific mass balance of Gangotri as −0.55 ± 0.42 m. w. eq. a−1 from 2006–2014, our results project a similar specific mass change of −0.54 ± 0.03 m. w. eq. a−1 for the period 2000–2014.”

All other citations to Reference 9 in the Article are correct.

In addition, in Figure 1b, the values on the X-axis are missing. The correct Figure 1 appears below.
