Corrigendum to “Human-induced climate change increased 2021–2022 drought severity in horn of Africa”[Weather and Climate Extremes (47), March 2025, 100745] (Weather and Climate Extremes (2025) 47, (S2212094725000039), (10.1016/j.wace.2025.100745))

The authors wish to draw your attention a minor error from our recent paper (Human-induced climate change increased 2021-2022 drought severity in Horn of Africa), and a proposed correction to three subfigures (Figures 3c, 4c and 5c) and the corresponding texts describing the results. We were notified of an error in the sign of the smoothed GMST anomalies used in the analysis: negative values during the 1850–1950 period were mistakenly treated as positive due to the omission of the negative sign. As a result, analyses using data prior to 1950 (those derived using CenTrends-CHIRPS) were affected. While these corrections do not alter the overall conclusions of the study, they minorly affect the estimated magnitude of the climate change signal, which was consequently slightly underestimated in the original results. The affected figures have now been corrected and recreated and, together with text describing both the original and corrected results, are provided in the attached document. For ease of reference, the figures are numbered as in the original manuscript. Tables showing the original and corrected values corresponding to each figure are included for comparison. Results based on CPC remain unchanged. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
