The Eq. (10) in the article was displayed incorrectly. The correct version of Eq. (10) should be as follows:

$$ C\left( {\frac{L}{{W_{\text{s}} }}} \right) = \frac{\pi }{8}\left( {7 - \frac{{7 - 16/\pi^{2} }}{{1 + \left( {2W_{\text{s}} /L} \right)^{2} }}} \right). $$

We would like to acknowledge Prof. Ralph Archuleta, Research Professor and Professor Emeritus from Dept. of Earth Science of University of California, Santa Barbara for discovering this mistake.
