There was an error in the original publication [1]. A correction has been made to Abstract, 3.1. Nitrogen Content of the Vegetation Mats, paragraph 1, Table 3 and Table 7.
Abstract: The vegetation mats with sheep’s wool (V1–V3) contained 192.6, 154.0, and 283.5 g nitrogen (N)/m2 and the coir mats (V4) contained 7.5 g N/m2.
3.1. Nitrogen Content of the Vegetation Mats, paragraph 1: The analysis of total nitrogen showed 10.4% for the sheep’s wool fibres and 0.3% for the coconut fibres. The subsequently calculated nitrogen content in the four vegetation mat types averaged between 7.5 g of nitrogen (variant 100c) and 283.5 g of nitrogen (sandwiched variant) per m2 vegetation mat (Table 3).
Table 3. Calculated nitrogen content of the fibres (air dry) of the used vegetation mats.
