Abstract

This corrigendum fixes an error in the reporting of 21Ne concentrations, which affected one batch of samples that included the bedrock depth profile from which cosmogenic 10Be, 26Al and 21Ne were modelled to constrain the age and exposure history of the Patriot Hills (Fig. 8 in the manuscript). Re-modelling the cosmogenic nuclide data using the corrected 21Ne data yields an apparent exposure age of 3.5–5.1 Ma. This corrects an age published as 2.1–2.6 Ma in Sugden et al. (2017), and reinforces the conclusion of the original paper that the glacial trimline is pre-Quaternary and that the climatic conditions necessary for its erosion last occurred in the Mid-Miocene. The revised Supplementary Table 1 has been updated with corrected 21Ne concentrations and consistent reporting of 10Be concentrations. The revised Supplementary Table 2 has been updated with 21Ne exposure ages for the affected batch of samples. Below, we describe the revised model results and present a revised Fig. 8. Tables 1 and 2, Fig. 8 and its caption replace those in the original paper. The corrections reinforce the conclusions of the original paper.
