Publication: Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering
Volume 141, Issue 12
The following correction should be made to the original paper:
1.
Tables 1–3: Column name “water depth (m)” should be changed to “Average water depth (m).”
2.
Page 457, Table 1, the same values were given in the columns “Flow velocity of inflow” and “Average wetted perimeter” for the values of 13.1; 11.8; 5.9; 5.2, and 6.1. The necessary corrections have been made in Table 1 as follows.
