In the published article, there was an error. A correction has been made to Materials and Methods, Paragraph 1. The classification of seasons was given incorrectly. This section previously stated:

“Samples collected from March to May were considered spring samples, June to July early summer and August to September late summer samples.”

The corrected sentence appears below:

“Samples collected from March to June were considered spring samples, July to August early summer and September late summer samples.”

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