This correction stands to correct two discrepancies reported to the publisher soon after publication. The authors and publisher regret the errors as they were caused by a proofing oversight and stress the following to be noted:

First, under the Methods and Material section (3.4), where the erroneous equation is:

$$ \begin{array}{*{20}l} {C_{\text{d}} = \left( {1.0 - 0.01890U} \right)10^{ - 3} } \hfill & {U < 8\;{\text{m}}/{\text{s}}} \hfill \\ {C_{\text{d}} = \left( {1.0 + 0.1078U} \right)10^{ - 3} } \hfill & {8\,{\text{m}}/{\text{s}} \le U,U \le 30\,{\text{m}}/{\text{s}}} \hfill \\ {C_{\text{d}} = 0.00246} \hfill & {U \le 30\;{\text{m}}/{\text{s}}} \hfill \\ \end{array} $$

The correct equation should be:

$$\begin{array}{*{20}l} {C_{\text{d}} = (1.0 - 0.01890U) \times 1.28 \times 10^{ - 3} } \hfill & {U < 8\,{\text{m}}/{\text{s}}} \hfill \\ {C_{\text{d}} = (1.0 + 0.1078U) \times 0.581 \times 10^{ - 3} } \hfill & {8\,{\text{m}}/{\text{s}} \le U,U \le 30\,{\text{m}}/{\text{s}}} \hfill \\ {C_{\text{d}} = 0.00246} \hfill & {U > 30\;{\text{m}}/{\text{s}}} \hfill \\ \end{array}$$

Second, for Figure 16 under the Results and Discussion section (4.2.4), a velocity scale bar in the original article ranges from 0.0~10.0 m/s. However, it should be 0.0~1.0 m/s. Provided in this correction is the correct rendering of the figure:

With attention to these corrections, the original article has been corrected.
