The journal retracts the 26 July 2022 article cited above.

Following publication, the authors submitted a correction noting that there had been a miscalculation in the carbon stock data in the original article. The findings reported in the article are no longer supported by the analyses. An investigation was conducted in accordance with Frontiers’ policies that confirmed this; therefore, the article has been retracted.

The authors present revised findings in a new manuscript: Stevenson A, Ó Corcora TC, Hukriede W, Schubert PR and Reusch TBH (2023) Substantial seagrass blue carbon pools in the southwestern Baltic Sea include relics of terrestrial peatlands. Front. Mar. Sci. 10:1266663. doi: 10.3389/fmars.2023.1266663.

This retraction was approved by the Chief Editors of Frontiers in Marine Science and the Chief Executive Editor of Frontiers. The authors agree to this retraction.
