Erratum: On the cooling-to-space approximation (Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences (2020) 77 (465–478) DOI: 10.1175/JAS-D-18-0352.1)

During the publication process for Jeevanjee and Fueglistaler (2020), several production errors occurred that need correction. First, in section 5 after Eq. (19), an incorrect inequality sign was used. The affected sentence should read "Physically, the t 5 1 law holds for such coordinates because t ' 1 is a 'sweet spot,' in between t 1 (where the optical depth gradient dt/dj goes to 0) and t'1 (where the transmissivity e2t goes to 0)."The second correction involves the removal of an errant label between Figs. 7e and 7f. The correct Fig. 7 is shown below. The third error occurred in the last line of the first paragraph of section 6. The units of the spectrally resolved heating should be K day21 cm, not K day21 cm21. None of these errors affected the results or conclusions of the paper. AMS regrets any inconvenience these errors may have caused. (Figure Presented).
