Correction to: Seed dispersal by Martu peoples promotes the distribution of native plants in arid Australia (Nature Communications, (2024), 15, 1, (6019), 10.1038/s41467-024-50300-5)

Correction to:Nature Communicationshttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-50300-5, published online 17 July 2024 The original version of this Article contained errors in Table 4 and its legend. In Table 4, cells labels were omitted for the cases in which: (i) the predictor was significant in the global model but not in the best model, and (ii) support for anthropogenic dispersal or anthropogenic engineering on presence or abundance. In the legend of Table 4, the significance of the grey shading was incorrectly described. The correct version of Table 4 is: (Table presented.) Presence Abundance Presence Abundance Presence Abundance Presence Abundance Site distance Strong negative** Negative** Weak negative under high land use** No effect Negative under high land use** Negative near ephemeral water** Weak positive Weak positive Land use Strong positive** No effect Weakly Positive under high use** No effect Weak Negative No effect No effect No effect Water permanence Strong positive** Strong positive** No effect No effect No effect* Negative close to sites** No effect No effect Site type Major Negative** No effect No effect No effect No effect* No effect** Negative Positive Season Winter No effect* No effect No effect Negative Negative Positive** No effect No effect Fire frequency No effect No effect Strong positive* Weak negative No effect No effect No effect No effect TSF diversity No effect* No effect No effect No effect No effect* No effect No effect No effect The correct version of the Table 4 legend is: Table 4. Hypothesis test outcomes from the best model predicting presence and abundance. No effect = coefficient not in best model: dropping coefficient reduced AIC value of the model during model selection and ranking. Positive effect = covariate increased presence or abundance. Negative effect = covariate reduced presence or abundance. *: the predictor was significant in the global model but not in the best model. **: support for anthropogenic dispersal or anthropogenic engineering on presence or abundance. This has been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article. In addition, several affiliation details were incorrect. Affiliation 1 for Rebecca Bliege Bird and Douglas W. Bird was incorrectly given as ‘Department of Anthropology, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA’ but should have been ‘The Pennsylvania State University, Department of Anthropology, University Park, PA 16801’. Affiliation 2 for Christopher T. Martine was incorrectly given as ‘Far Western Anthropological Research Group, Davis, CA, USA’ but should have been ‘Department of Biology, Bucknell University, 1 Dent Drive, Lewisburg, PA 17837’. Affiliation 3 for Chloe McGuire was incorrectly given as ‘Dja DjaWurrung Clans Aboriginal Corporation, Bendigo, VIC, Australia’ but should have been ‘Far Western Anthropological Research Group, 2727 Del Rio Pl, Davis, CA 95618’. Affiliation 4 for Leanne Greenwood was incorrectly given as ‘Kulyakartu Aboriginal Corporation, East Perth, WA, Australia’ but should have been ‘Dja Dja Wurrung Clans Aboriginal Corporation, Bendigo, Australia’. Affiliation 5 for Desmond Taylor was incorrectly given as ‘Department of Plant Biology, University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA’ but should have been ‘Martu Elder, Kulyakartu Aboriginal Corporation, 76 Wittenoom St, East Perth, Western Australia 6004’. Affiliation 6 for Tanisha M. Williams was incorrectly given as ‘Department of Biology, Bucknell University, Lewisburg, PA, USA’ but should have been ‘Department of Plant Biology, University of Georgia, 2502 Miller Plant Sciences, Athens, GA 30602-7271’. The affiliation details for Peter M. Veth were incorrectly given as ‘School of Social Sciences, The University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia’ and ‘ARC Centre of Excellence for Indigenous and Environmental Histories and Futures, University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia’ but should have been ‘The University of Western Australia, School of Social Sciences and ARC Centre of Excellence for Indigenous and Environmental Histories and Futures, Crawley, WA, Australia’. The original article has been corrected.
