Causes for 2025 are estimates, based on what caused forest loss in the same places up to 2024.

- +289 hamore forest than in 2000
Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Pasarkemis grew from about 4,840 hectares to 5,130 hectares, a net gain of about 289 hectares (+6%). New forest grew on about 391 hectares, while 102 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.

At AQI 69 (Moderate): fine for most people; unusually sensitive people should take long or hard exercise easier. Windows: fine to open; close them if you are sensitive to pollution. Masks: not needed for most people. The reading changes through the day, so check again before a long run or ride.
What has the air quality in Pasarkemis been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Pasarkemis's daily AQI at 135 on average, from 126 on Nov 7 to an hourly peak of 181 on Nov 6. On 7 of those days the average was above 100, unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Pasarkemis'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 Pasarkemis lost since 2001?
Since 2001, the area within 10 km of Pasarkemis has lost about 8 hectares of forest (about 11 football pitches): 2.5% of the forest it had in 2000. The biggest cause was towns and roads (44%). About 3 hectares (44%) was deforestation: forest cleared for good for farms, mines or towns. Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Pasarkemis grew from about 4,840 hectares to 5,130 hectares, a net gain of about 289 hectares (+6%). New forest grew on about 391 hectares, while 102 hectares were lost.
What is the tree count in Pasarkemis?
Pasarkemis has an estimated 89,760 trees across the 12.56 km² of land measured — 28.6% tree cover, 1 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.
How many more trees does Pasarkemis need?
Pasarkemis needs roughly 4,394 more trees to close a 1-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 96.7 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.
How are Pasarkemis'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 Pasarkemis; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
