There is an error in Section 4.1 of the published article, where the fit formula of ${\beta }_{\mathrm{xuv}}^{2}\eta $ is a function of θ. Here we fit the ${\beta }_{\mathrm{xuv}}^{2}\eta $ in four cases according to the planetary gravitation potential (i.e., ${{GM}}_{p}/{R}_{p}$). The four cases are ${{GM}}_{p}/{R}_{p}\lt 1.5\times {10}^{12}$, $1.5\times {10}^{12}\leqslant {{GM}}_{p}/{R}_{p}\lt 5\times {10}^{12}$, $5\times {10}^{12}\leqslant {{GM}}_{p}/{R}_{p}\lt 1\times {10}^{13}$, and $1\times {10}^{13}\leqslant {{GM}}_{p}/{R}_{p}\lt 1.5\times {10}^{13}$. However, we incorrectly wrote them in the published article as ${{GM}}_{p}{F}_{\mathrm{xuv}}/{R}_{p}\lt 1.5\times {10}^{12}$, $1.5\times {10}^{12}\leqslant {{GM}}_{p}{F}_{\mathrm{xuv}}/{R}_{p}\lt 5\times {10}^{12}$, $5\times {10}^{12}\leqslant {{GM}}_{p}{F}_{\mathrm{xuv}}/{R}_{p}\lt 1\times {10}^{13}$, and $1\times {10}^{13}\leqslant {{GM}}_{p}{F}_{\mathrm{xuv}}/{R}_{p}\lt 1.5\times {10}^{13}$, where the Fxuv should not be included.
