Erratum to ‘‘Methylmercury cycling in sediments on the continental shelf of southern New England’’ [Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 70–4 (2006) 918–930] Chad R. Hammerschmidt *, William F. Fitzgerald Department of Marine Sciences, University of Connecticut, Groton, CT 06340, USA
In Table 1, on page 921, in the fourth column and fourth row, the sediment Hg(II) concentration for ‘‘71central’’ is 158 (one hundred fifty eight), not 1.58 (one point five eight). A corrected pdf file for the entire article is provided as an electronic annex to this erratum. Frank A.
