Volume 73, no. 16, p. 5130-5137, 2007. Page 5134: A miscalculation was made during the conversion of units for the measured N2O concentrations in sediment denitrification bioassays reported in Fig. 4B and the associated discussion in the text. The reported N2O production rates are too high by a factor of 1/0.028, or 36-fold, as they were not corrected for the headspace volume of the bioassay serum bottles (28 ml). The correct ranges of N2O production rates are 0.001 to 1.8 µmol cm–3 day–1 for Mono Lake samples and 0.01 to 0.5 µmol cm–3 day–1 for Searles Lake samples. Our observations regarding the effects of salinity on denitrification, as well as the other major implications of the study, however, are not affected by this correction.
