In the paper \High Rayleigh number thermo-chemical models of a dense boundary layer in D 00 " the expression deening the buoyancy number B in Table 1 is the inverse of the buoyancy number used in the calculations. The values given in the last column of Table 1 are based on the correct deenition of B. The corrected table appears below: Table 1. Model parameters Parameter Deenition Value Le (Lewis number) o=D 10 3 ; 10 4 Ra (Rayleigh number) gvTd 3 o 10 7 B (Buoyancy number) c vT 0:6; 1:0 (Thermal diiusivity) 0 or 0(1 + C) 1 ? 2 0 is reference thermal diiusivity, D is chemical diiu-sivity, g is gravitational acceleration, v is the thermal expansion coeecient, T is the temperature contrast, d is depth of the convecting layer, is viscosity, c is the density contrast due to compositional variation.
