Abstract

In the published article [1], following correction. the authors realized two errors and wish to make the 1. Table 1 currently indicates that the SAAS separation tool does not meet the criteria for ‘can select seasonal periods’ (marked ‘N’). However, SAAS can indeed select seasonal periods. To correct this error, replace ‘N’ with ‘Y’ within Table 1 for the programme SAAS and criteria ‘can select seasonal periods’. The correct Table 1 is as below: 2. This change has no material impact on the conclusions of our paper; however, it reveals SAAS met all the criteria and is suitable for analysis. To explain this, the following sentence at the end of Paragraph 2 of Section 2.3 ‘As the BFI Programme [6] met all of the criteria it was selected for analysis.’ should be removed and replaced with ‘Although both the BFI Programme and SAAS met all of the criteria, the BFI Programme was selected for analysis in this study’. The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused to the readers by these changes and also to the creators of SAAS for this error. Table is presented.
