Dataset Overview

This dataset includes comprehensive forest cover and carbon flux data at national and sub-national levels. Below is a description of the key data categories:

• Tree Cover Loss: Hectares of tree cover loss at national/sub-national levels (2001-2023) by canopy cover %
• Primary Forest Loss: Hectares of primary forest loss (2002-2023) at 30% canopy density
• Carbon Data: Aboveground biomass stocks/densities (2000), average annual GHG emissions/removals (2001-2023)
• Drivers of Deforestation: Tree cover loss categorized by dominant driver (2001-2023)
• Canopy Cover Thresholds: Data available for >10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 50% and 75% canopy cover
