The original publication of this paper contains a mistake.

In the second paragraph of the Statistics section, it should read: We did not have a group of brominated flame retardants, as the PBDEs were detected in less than 5% of the samples, but they were included in ΣlipPOP. However, the PBDE data were not available for 39 samples from 2011 and these samples were excluded from the statistical analyses involving ∑lipPOP.

The 1st equation in the statistics section should read: pT½ = ln(2)/(-β)

The original article was corrected.
