We have identified an inconsistency between the bisector fits to the Kennicutt-Schmidt relation plotted in Fig. 7 (and Appendix A) and the fit parameters listed in Table 4. The fits from the table relied on a different masking scheme for the CO(2–1) emission line maps (‘broad’ masks as opposed to ‘flat’ masks), which affects the x-axis of the Kennicutt-Schmidt relation (Σmol). This alternative masking scheme reflects differences in the treatment of non-detections. This inconsistency does not affect any of the other results and conclusions presented in the paper.

The correct version of Table 4, which matches the fits plotted in Fig. 7, is provided below (Table 1). For completeness, we include as Fig. 1 an updated version of Fig. A.1, which consistently shows the fits from Table 4 using the same masking scheme for different αCO recipes.

The straight lines represent the best bisector fit to the data for the different environments, as indicated by the different colours. The numerical results of the bisector fits are listed in Table 1.

We thank Romane Cologni for pointing out this issue.
