Abstract

This dataset represents the opportunity area for implementing the forest management restoration intervention as modeled for the National Forest Landscape Restoration Assessment. Forest management interventions include three types: 1) Regeneration of recently degraded or deforested areas through managed natural regeneration and plantings; 2) Improved management of existing plantations; and 3) Protection of existing natural forests inside and outside forest reserves and other protected areas.
