More than one quarter of Africa's tree cover is found outside areas previously classified as forest

F. Reiner, M. Brandt, et al.

This groundbreaking research by Florian Reiner and colleagues utilizes PlanetScope nanosatellite imagery to unveil that a staggering 29% of tree cover in Africa exists outside previously defined forest areas. This high-resolution mapping could change the way we assess land use impacts and formulate natural climate solutions.
