Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Paseh stayed about the same size, at about 16,000 hectares: new forest grew on about 192 hectares, and about 259 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.

Frequently asked

Questions about Paseh

What is the air quality (AQI) in Paseh right now?

The latest reading for Paseh shows an AQI of 72 (Moderate), observed Nov 11, 14:00 local time via Open-Meteo / CAMS, corrected with 7 ground-station cities within 145 km, US EPA index. The main pollutant is PM2.5. Unusually sensitive people should consider limiting long outdoor exertion.

Is it safe to exercise outside in Paseh today?

At AQI 72 (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 Paseh been like this week?

Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Paseh's daily AQI at 87 on average, from 73 on Nov 9 to an hourly peak of 157 on Nov 6. On 2 of those days the average was above 100, unhealthy for sensitive groups.

Is Paseh'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 Paseh lost since 2001?

Since 2001, the area within 10 km of Paseh has lost about 245 hectares of forest (about 340 football pitches): 1.6% of the forest it had in 2000. Most of it (77%) was deforestation, forest cleared for good, mainly for farms, pasture and plantations. Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Paseh stayed about the same size, at about 16,000 hectares: new forest grew on about 192 hectares, and about 259 hectares were lost.

What is the tree count in Paseh?

Paseh has an estimated 193,522 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 61.6% tree cover, already past the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Paseh need?

Paseh has already reached its tree-cover target, so no additional trees are needed to close the gap.

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