How much forest has Xinmin lost?

There was almost no forest around Xinmin 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
+402 hamore forest than in 2000

Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Xinmin grew from about 252 hectares to 654 hectares, a net gain of about 402 hectares (+160%). New forest grew on about 416 hectares, while 14 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.

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

There was almost no forest around Xinmin 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 416 hectares, while 14 hectares were lost.

What is the tree count in Xinmin?

Xinmin has an estimated 36,757 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 11.7% tree cover, 28 percentage points short of the 40% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Xinmin need?

Xinmin needs roughly 88,907 more trees to close a 28-point shortfall against its 40% tree-cover target — about 1,956 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.

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