How much forest has Dehui lost?

There was almost no forest around Dehui in 2000, so there has been almost nothing to lose since. Only fairly dense woodland counts as forest in these maps, so scattered street and garden trees don't show up here.

Forest in 2020

Overall change
+34 hamore forest than in 2000

Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Dehui grew from about 88 hectares to 122 hectares, a net gain of about 34 hectares. New forest grew on about 35 hectares, while 1 hectare 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.

What is the tree count in Dehui?

Dehui has an estimated 24,480 trees across the 12.56 km² of land measured — 7.8% tree cover, 37 percentage points short of the 45% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Dehui need?

Dehui needs roughly 116,750 more trees to close a 37-point shortfall against its 45% tree-cover target — about 2,569 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.

How are Dehui'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 Dehui; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
