(author)An error was found in Table I of the original paper (von Benda-Beckman et al., 2022), where the two kurtosis values for intermittent and continuous sonar signals at 6.5 kHz were inadvertently interchanged. The correct values were used in the analysis and, thus, the error in Table I did not affect our results. A corrected version of Table I is...article 2022
