A Corrigendum on
“Antarctic on fire”: Paleo-wildfire events associated with volcanic deposits in the Antarctic Peninsula during the Late Cretaceous

by Manfroi J, Trevisan C, Dutra TL, Jasper A, Carvalho MDA, Aquino FE and Leppe M (2023). Front. Earth Sci. 11:1048754. doi: 10.3389/feart.2023.1048754

In the published article, an author name was incorrectly written as Ré Jasper in the ORCID ID list. The correct spelling of the author’s name is André Jasper.

In the published article, the reference for Scott and Glasspool (2007) was incorrectly written as Glasspool and Scott, 2007. The reference for Smellie et al. (1984) was incorrectly written as ‘Smellie et al., 984’. These have now been corrected.

In the published article, references that are properly cited in the text were not included in the list of references due to a layout problem. The references in question are: Belcher and McElwain (2008), Belcher et al. (2010), Dutra (1997), Galloway and Hobday (1983), Glasspool and Scott (2013), Kuhlbusch and Crutzen (1996), Lima et al. (2021), Lupia el al. (1999), Pfuhl and McCave (2005), Schmidt and Noack (2000), Smellie et al. (1984), Scott and Glasspool (2005), Scott and Glasspool (2007), Tokarski (1991), Wang and Shen Yanbin (1994). These have now been added.

The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
