A Corrigendum on
Mangrove restoration in Vietnamese Mekong Delta during 2015-2020: achievements and challenges
by Tinh PH, MacKenzie RA, Hung TD, Vinh TV, Ha HT, Lam MH, Hanh NTH, Tung NX, Hai PM and Huyen BT (2022) Front. Mar. Sci. 9:1043943. doi: 10.3389/fmars.2022.1043943.
In the published article, there was an error. One of the seven coastal provinces in Vietnamese Mekong Delta had its name misspelled, resembling another province name.
A correction has been made to Abstract. This sentence previously stated:
“In this study, we analyzed high-resolution WorldView-2 images to quantify changes in the mangrove forest in seven coastal provinces (Tien Giang, Ben Tre, Vinh Long, Soc Trang, Bac Lieu, Ca Mau, and Kien Giang) of the Mekong Delta from 2015 to 2020.”
The corrected sentence appears below:
“In this study, we analyzed high-resolution WorldView-2 images to quantify changes in the mangrove forest in seven coastal provinces (Tien Giang, Ben Tre, Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, Bac Lieu, Ca Mau, and Kien Giang) of the Mekong Delta from 2015 to 2020.”
A correction has been made to Materials and methods, study area. This sentence previously stated:
“This study was carried out in seven provinces (Tien Giang, Ben Tre, Vinh Long, Soc Trang, Bac Lieu, Ca Mau, Kien Giang) across the coastal area of the Mekong Delta, including 99 coastal communes within 26 different districts (Figure 1).”
