Abstract

In the original paper, the term “particle density” was erroneously changed during the review process to “particle spacing.” Therefore, all through the paper the text errors should be revised by replacing “spacing” with “density” or “densities.” Revised versions of Figs. 4–8 and 10 are also provided herein. The correct use of the word “spacing” only remains in following four lines in the text: • First paragraph of “Bedload Transport Data” section: “The sediment transport ratio of each case shows that increasing the spacing between the large immobile particles : : : ” • Fourth paragraph of “Holistic Interpretation of the Results” section: “Alternatively, spacing the clusters closer together resulted in the flow patterns interfering with each other and reducing the energy of the turbulence cells.” • Fifth paragraph of “Holistic Interpretation of the Results” section: “(2) at a narrow range of large immobile particle spacings, flow structures build upon each other and amplify their erosive forces.” • Last paragraph of “Conclusions” section: “(2) at a narrow range of large immobile particle spacings, flow structures build upon each other and amplify their erosive forces.” The updated version of the paper may be read with this correction. Inconvenience is regretted.
