How much forest has Isfara lost?

There was almost no forest around Isfara 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.

Overall change
+316 hamore forest than in 2000

Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Isfara grew from about 428 hectares to 744 hectares, a net gain of about 316 hectares (+74%). New forest grew on about 324 hectares, while 8 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.

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

New forest grew on about 324 hectares, while 8 hectares were lost.

What is the tree count in Isfara?

Isfara has an estimated 58,748 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 18.7% tree cover, 11 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Isfara need?

Isfara needs roughly 35,500 more trees to close a 11-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 781.0 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.

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