This corrigendum amends a minor inconsistency between the supplemental materials and the notes embedded in our ENRM model documentation. Modeling assumptions of reservoirs along the Blue and Main Nile in the ENRM.* Method to define Upper Mendaya and Beko Abo High Dam flood space elevation described below in cascade assumptions.** The upper value reflects the assumed minimum power production elevation and the lower value reflects the use of low outlets similar to those of the GERD and other major dams. The value used is from ENTRO and used in the river basin simulation software (RIBASIM; Deltares).
