(2016) Bioclimatic envelope models predict a decrease in tropical forest carbon stocks with climate change in Madagascar. Journal of Ecology, 104, 703–715. doi:10.1111/1365-2745.12548. In the paper by Vieilledent et al. (2016), the authors inadvertently inverted the captions of Figs 2 and 3. The authors and journal would like to correct this error. The results and conclusions of the article are not affected. The figures with their correct captions are below. Figure 2Open in figure viewerPowerPoint Forest carbon map in 2010 for Madagascar. We derived a national forest carbon map in 2010 for Madagascar at 250-m resolution. We fitted our model using above-ground carbon density for 1771 forest plots measured between 1996 and 2013. Our model included six explicative variables: two vegetation indexes (VCF and EVI from 2000 to 2010 MODIS satellite images at 250 m), one topographic variable (elevation from SRTM at 90 m) and three climatic variables [mean annual temperature, mean annual precipitation and temperature seasonality from WorldClim at 30 arc-seconds (~1 km)]. Our predictions are limited to the extent of the forest in 2010. Clear differences appear for the forest carbon stocks between the three ecoregions including moist, dry and spiny forest (see black lines for delimitations). Figure 3Open in figure viewerPowerPoint Relationships between explicative variables and ACD. Graphics show the marginal effect of the variable on ACD. Range of predicted ACD is reduced compared to the observed range of ACD in forest plots because variables other than the target variable are set to their mean values. Hash marks at the bottom of the plot indicate the deciles of the explicative variable. Percentage in the top-left or top-right corner of each panel is the percentage of increase in mean square error when the variable was randomly permuted, which indicates the variable relative importance in determining ACD.
