Erratum to: Carbon Balance Manage (2016) 11:16 DOI 10.1186/s13021-016-0058-5

Upon publication of the original article [1], the authors noticed an error in the legend for Table 6. Instead of:

“Worlds in italic indicate the LUCa type”

This should read:

“Words in italic indicate the plantation type”

This has now been updated in the original article.
