TFFF Estimated Payouts by Country Considering CN3.0 Criteria
Sources of Data
- JRC TMF — Annual deforestation and degradation, available in GEE:
ee.ImageCollection('projects/JRC/TMF/v1_2025/AnnualChanges')
- Hansen GFC — Annual tree cover loss, available in GEE:
ee.Image('UMD/hansen/global_forest_change_2025_v1_13')
- Hansen GFC — Annual tree cover loss due to fire, available in GEE:
users/sashatyu/2001-2025_fire_forest_loss_annual
- MODIS — Data on fires, available in GEE:
ee.ImageCollection('MODIS/061/MCD64A1')
Issues to Consider
- Hansen GFC data is masked using the Tropical and Subtropical Moist Forest ecoregion. JRC TMF is not masked by ecoregion but maintains the original data geographical scope.
- Hansen GFC considers forests with a canopy cover higher than 30%.
- All tree cover loss due to fire under Hansen GFC is considered as degraded forests. MODIS data is used as a proxy for degradation in JRC TMF estimates.
- Plantations are excluded as estimated by the JRC TMF land cover dataset in 2020.
- This analysis does not consider the condition of decreasing deforestation, as it excludes countries with rates below 0.5% in the previous year.
