Abstract

Because of an error in the calculation of bulk densities from water contents, the cumulative masses in Fig. 8 are too high by a factor of about 2. The actual correction depends to small degree on water content and ranges from 1.8 for a water content of 50% to 2.2 for a water content of 75%. The values for mass accumulation rates in the left two columns of Table 5 are also affected, but the ratios between pre- and post-settlement times are not. A revised version of that table is given below. None of the major conclusions of the paper are materially affected.
