In the version of the article initially published, the source data files for Fig. 2–4 were incorrect and have now been replaced in the HTML version of the article. Additionally, the sentence “All simulated scenarios assume an initial HAD storage volume of 162 bcm following satellite altimetry data sourced from Copernicus Land Surface” has been added to the final paragraph of the “EAPP river basin model” section in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
