How much forest has Manas lost?

There was almost no forest around Manas 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
+160 hamore forest than in 2000

Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Manas grew from about 99 hectares to 258 hectares, a net gain of about 160 hectares. New forest grew on about 160 hectares, while under 1 hectare was 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 Manas lost since 2001?

There was almost no forest around Manas 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.

New forest grew on about 160 hectares, while under 1 hectare was lost.

What is the tree count in Manas?

Manas has an estimated 22,619 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 7.2% tree cover, 23 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Manas need?

Manas needs roughly 71,628 more trees to close a 23-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 1,576 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.

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