A Correction on
Recent stagnation period and unprecedented deoxygenation in the Baltic Sea: causes and consequences

by Liblik T, Siht E, Buschmann F, Kaljumäe M, Kikas V, Lips U, Luik S-T, Maslova D, Pärt K, Salm K, Samlas O, Siiriä S-M, Sildever S, Skudra M, Tikka K and Tuomi L (2025). Front. Earth Sci. 13:1638978. doi: 10.3389/feart.2025.1638978

There was a mistake in Figure 4 as published. The wrong time series was presented. The corrected Figure 4 appears below.

Figure 4
Six contour plots showing various oceanographic parameters over time at different depths. Plot (a) displays temperature changes, (b) shows salinity, (c) represents oxygen levels, (d) depicts phosphate concentration, (e) illustrates ammonium levels, and (f) presents nitrate concentration. Each plot includes a color gradient and specific units, with a timeline from 2015 to 2025 on the x-axis and depth in meters on the y-axis.

Figure 4. Time series of temperature (a), salinity (b) dissolved oxygen (c) phosphates (d) ammonium (e) and nitrates (f) in the GD from 2015 to 2024.
