Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Sukawati shrank from about 8,320 hectares to 7,980 hectares, a net loss of about 334 hectares (−4%). New forest grew on about 292 hectares, but 625 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.

What has the air quality in Sukawati been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Sukawati's daily AQI at 64 on average, from 59 on Nov 9 to an hourly peak of 89 on Nov 6. No day averaged above 100, the level where the air turns unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Sukawati'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 Sukawati lost since 2001?
Since 2001, the area within 10 km of Sukawati has lost about 263 hectares of forest (about 370 football pitches): 5.2% of the forest it had in 2000.

Air quality is measured by ground monitoring stations near Sukawati, via OpenAQ; the 7-day trend is the Open-Meteo / CAMS model's estimate. 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 Sukawati; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
