About 65% of that biomass was protected by current fisheries closures.” now reads: “Sponge biomass surface created from research survey data using random forest modeling revealed 231,136 t of sponges in the area. About 42% of that biomass was protected by current fisheries closures.” This error has now been corrected in the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
