Change Type: Correction
Change Details: The publication contained a dating model that was based on AD/BC dates instead of years before present (YBP) dates for the three C<Superscript>14</Superscript> AMS values. As a result, dates reported as YBP should be reported as BC. While all of the dates for the prescribed burning period are correct given that they were based on the <Superscript>210</Superscript>Pb model, all dates reported as YBP should read BC. Specific changes to the manuscript are as follows: The abstract should read, “throughout the last 8000 years.” The final paragraph in the introduction should read, “from the mid-Holocene (~ 6000 BC) to present.” The end of the first paragraph in the Results section should read, “the sediment core represented the past ~ 8000 YBP and the core sections below the <Superscript>210</Superscript>Pb record averaged sedimentation rates of 1.73 ± 2.1 mg cm<Superscript>−2</Superscript> year<Superscript>−1</Superscript>.” All dates presented as Years Before Present or YPB for the remainder of the manuscript should be reported as BC. Added to Acknowledgements: “The authors would like to thank Sally Horn and Matt Boehm with help with the age model and dating.” Table 1 has been updated with the “Calibrated Age” column reflecting the correct dates in YBP notation. Figure 2 has been updated to reflect the BC to YBP changes in the calibrated AMS C<Superscript>14</Superscript> dates. Both panels have been changed to include the older dates.
