Dear Reader, Kluwer Academic Publishers is the proud publisher of ASSL Volume 270 “Dayside and Polar Cap Aurora” written by Dr. Per Even Sandholt, Dr. Herbert Carlson, and Dr. Alv Egeland. Despite several rounds of proof reading the wrong version of Figure 4.77 was printed on page 159. Here, we present a correct replacement figure that could be glued into the book. In addition, a few other smaller mistakes were found. This erratum provides a list of corrections that should be taken into account. With apologies for the unfortunate mistakes. Dr. Harry (J. J.)
