A Corrigendum on
The first discovery of amber resin in Lichi Mélange, Eastern Taiwan
by Pang C-H, Yang T-R, Chang Y-J, Lin S-H, Shiau L-J, Chen C-T, Chang C-P and Lo L (2023). Front. Earth Sci. 11:1078703. doi: 10.3389/feart.2023.1078703
In the published article, there was an error in the affiliations. Instead of “Institute of Earth Sciences, National Ocean University, Keelung, Taiwan”, affiliation 5 should be “Institute of Earth Sciences, National Taiwan Ocean University, Keelung, Taiwan”.
Instead of “Exploration and Development Research Institute, CPC Corporation, Miaoli, Taiwan”, affiliation 7 should be “Exploration and Development Research Institute, CPC Corporation, Taiwan, Miaoli, Taiwan”. The Conflict of Interest statement has been subsequently updated.
Affiliations have also been re-numbered for the authors Shu-Hong Lin, Liang-Jian Shiau, Chih-Tung Chen and Chung-Pai Chang in the affiliations list.
In the published article, there was an error in the name of the compound in the legend of Figure 6 as published. The corrected legend appears below.
FIGURE 6. The total ion chromatogram of pyrolyzates of Lichi Amber at 350°C. Different peaks represent different organic matters. The identified compounds are listed in the top left of the pyrogram.
In the published article, there was an error in the Acknowledgments. The corrected statement appears below.
In the published article, there was an error in the Materials and methods section. The corrected sentence appears below:
“Second, FTIR-ATR analysis was performed with a PerkinElmer FRONTIER FTIR at the Institute of Earth Sciences, National Taiwan Ocean University. Spectra were collected from 4,000 to 400 cm−1. The highest resolution was 0.4 cm−1, and the common resolution was 4 cm−1.”
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.
