| Abstract: | Summary. The governing equation derived by England & M c Kenzie for the deformation of a thin viscous shell contains an error. We give the correct derivation here and correct those figures where the change makes a visible difference. The correct results differ quantitatively from those of England & M c Kenzie but their conclusions are not affected. |
