A Corrigendum on
Modeling Circadian Phototransduction: Quantitative Predictions of Psychophysical Data

In the original article, there was an error. One of the inherent mathematical assumptions for Equation 3 as published, should be explicitly added to the mathematical formulation. The published terms “V_λ” and “S_λ” therefore have been replaced by “V_cλ” and “S_cλ” respectively, to convey the implicit normalizations in the corrected equation. The term k has also been defined.

A correction has been made to Equation 3.

$C{L}_{A}2.0=1548\{\begin{array}{l}\left({\displaystyle \int M{c}_{\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }-a_{rod1}\left(\frac{{\displaystyle \int V_{\lambda }^{\prime }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}{{\displaystyle \int V_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }+g_1{\displaystyle \int S_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}\right)\left(1-e^{\frac{-{\displaystyle \int V_{\lambda }^{\prime }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}{RodSat}}\right)\right)\\ +\left(a_{b-y}({\displaystyle \int S_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }-k{\displaystyle \int V_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }\right)-a_{rod2}\left(\frac{{\displaystyle \int V_{\lambda }^{\prime }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}{{\displaystyle \int V_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }+g_2{\displaystyle \int S_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}\right)\\ \left(1-e^{\frac{-{\displaystyle \int V_{\lambda }^{\prime }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}{RodSat}}\right)),b-y>0\\ \left({\displaystyle \int M{c}_{\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }-a_{rod1}\left(\frac{{\displaystyle \int V_{\lambda }^{\prime }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}{{\displaystyle \int V_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }+g_1{\displaystyle \int S_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}\right)\left(1-e^{\frac{-{\displaystyle \int V_{\lambda }^{\prime }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda }}{RodSat}}\right)\right),b-y\le 0\end{array}$

where,

$b-y=\int S_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda -k\int V_{c\lambda }{E}_{\lambda }d\lambda$

RodSat = 6.50 W m⁻²

$\begin{array}{l}{V}_{c\lambda }=\frac{\left(\frac{V_{\lambda }}{m{p}_{\lambda }}\right)}{max\left(\frac{V_{\lambda }}{m{p}_{\lambda }}\right)}{S}_{c\lambda }=\frac{\left(\frac{S_{\lambda }}{m{p}_{\lambda }}\right)}{max\left(\frac{S_{\lambda }}{m{p}_{\lambda }}\right)}\end{array}$
