How much forest has Majuro lost?

There was almost no forest around Majuro 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.

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 has the air quality in Majuro been like this week?

Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Majuro's daily AQI at 15 on average, from 6 on Nov 7 to an hourly peak of 55 on Nov 10. No day averaged above 100, the level where the air turns unhealthy for sensitive groups.

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

There was almost no forest around Majuro 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.

What is the tree count in Majuro?

Majuro has an estimated 3,365 trees across the 1.28 km² of land measured — 10.5% tree cover, 20 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Majuro need?

Majuro needs roughly 6,249 more trees to close a 20-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 137.5 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.

How are Majuro'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 Delap-Uliga-Djarrit; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
