Abstract

Change history: In Fig. 2b of this Letter, 'Relative wetland change (km²)' should have read 'Relative wetland change (%)' and equations (2) and (3) have been changed from 'RSLR_crit = (m × TR^e) × Sed + i' and 'Sed_crit = (RSLR - i)/(m × TR^e)', respectively. The definition of the variables in equation (2) has been updated. These errors have been corrected online.
