Letter: For the record

Published 7 January 2015

• The illustration accompanying our story on deep-sea life was a little murky: bottom-dwelling amphipods are shrimp-like, but not shrimp (6 December 2014, p 46)

• Our article on educational robots (6 December 2014, p 22) loses marks: Nanyang Technology University is actually in Singapore.

• And Martin Bojowald is at Penn State University’s University Park campus (13 December 2014, p 34).

• We should have spelled the name of vice-admiral Robert FitzRoy, promoter of the storm glass, as he did – with what would now be called an InterCap (20/27 December 2014, p 68).
