Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Arjawinangun stayed about the same size, at about 3,560 hectares: new forest grew on about 196 hectares, and about 142 hectares were lost.

These 2000 and 2020 maps, from the University of Maryland, count any land with trees taller than 5 m as forest, including plantations and orchards. Forest that was cut or burned and had grown back by 2020 counts in both years, so the loss here is smaller than the yearly figures.

These figures cover everything within 10 km of the city center, a wider area than the report above, because forest is usually lost at a city's edges.

Frequently asked

Questions about Arjawinangun

What is the air quality (AQI) in Arjawinangun right now?

The latest reading for Arjawinangun shows an AQI of 40 (Good), observed Nov 11, 17:00 local time via Open-Meteo / CAMS, corrected with 2 ground-station cities within 185 km, US EPA index. The main pollutant is PM2.5. Air quality is satisfactory for everyone.

Is it safe to exercise outside in Arjawinangun today?

At AQI 40 (Good): a good day to be active outside. Windows: open them to air the house. Masks: not needed. The reading changes through the day, so check again before a long run or ride.

What has the air quality in Arjawinangun been like this week?

Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Arjawinangun's daily AQI at 96 on average, from 73 on Nov 5 to an hourly peak of 173 on Nov 11. On 2 of those days the average was above 100, unhealthy for sensitive groups.

Is Arjawinangun's AQI the same as Indonesia's ISPU?

No. Airleaf shows the US EPA Air Quality Index (AQI), the scale used by IQAir and most air-quality apps. Indonesia's official index is the ISPU (Indeks Standar Pencemar Udara), published by the environment ministry from its own monitoring stations. Its bands are 0–50 Baik (good), 51–100 Sedang (moderate), 101–200 Tidak Sehat (unhealthy), 201–300 Sangat Tidak Sehat (very unhealthy) and over 300 Berbahaya (hazardous). The two indexes use different breakpoints and averaging times, so the same air can score differently on each.

How much forest has the area around Arjawinangun lost since 2001?

Since 2001, the area within 10 km of Arjawinangun has lost about 109 hectares of forest (about 150 football pitches): 5.2% of the forest it had in 2000. Most of it (95%) was deforestation, forest cleared for good, mainly for farms, pasture and plantations. Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Arjawinangun stayed about the same size, at about 3,560 hectares: new forest grew on about 196 hectares, and about 142 hectares were lost.

What is the tree count in Arjawinangun?

Arjawinangun has an estimated 37,071 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 11.8% tree cover, 18 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Arjawinangun need?

Arjawinangun needs roughly 57,177 more trees to close a 18-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 1,258 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.

How are Arjawinangun's air quality and tree cover measured?

Air quality comes from ground monitoring stations via OpenAQ where one reports nearby, and otherwise, as here, from the Open-Meteo / CAMS model, which may differ from street-level monitors. Tree cover is measured from Sentinel-2 L2A (ESA Copernicus) via Earth Search satellite imagery at 10 m detail across a 2 km radius around Arjawinangun; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
