Correction: Numerical simulation of a heavy rainfall event over Mindanao, Philippines, on 03 May 2017: mesoscale convective systems under weak large-scale forcing

Correction : Geoscience Letters (2023) 10:23  https://doi.org/10.1186/s40562-023-00277-8

Following publication of the original article (Lagare et al. 2023), the authors would like to correct the errors in Figs. 5 and 9 labels and some references.

The authors have identified that Figs. 5 and 9 were mislabeled.

Fig. 5

Spatial distributions of 9 h of accumulated a observation and b–f model rainfall (14:00–23:00 LST of 03 May 2017) at different horizontal resolutions, and g area-averaged hourly mean rainfall over the area in a; h threat scores at different threshold values of the 9 h of accumulated rainfall in a–f

Fig. 9

Schematic diagram demonstrating the development of MCSs. Sea breeze on the western coast supplied the abundant moisture that developed MCS-1 in the basin. The precipitating downdrafts of MCS-1 formed cold pools that contributed to its upscale growth. The interaction of the southeasterly winds and Mount Apo terrain developed MCS-2, and its precipitating downdrafts formed a cold pool that assisted its maintenance and growth

It has been corrected in this correction.

The original article has been updated.
