abstract   bibtex   
This document is one of three main publications of the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2015 (FRA 2015). It contains data for most of the quantitative and Boolean variables collected through FRA 2015. For a set of summary analyses the reader is encouraged to see the publication How are the world ́s forests changing? It provides a picture of the current state of the world's forest resources and of the main changes that have occurred over the last 25 years. The third publication is a special issue of the journal Forest Ecology and Management. The peer-reviewed papers that form this special issue contain a more detailed set of analyses, based on both FRA 2015 data and other data sources. In addition to these publications, country reports containing the source data used in this document can be downloaded and analysed, together with a wide range of additional data sources and output formats, through the Forest Land Use Data Explorer (FLUDE). The Forest Land Use Data Explorer is an active analytical tool designed to provide easy access and analyses of FRA and other land use data. The main reference documents used for the desk reference are: [::] Country reports and desk studies: the reports contain detailed information on the sources of data and documentation on calculations. [::] Guide for country reporting for FRA 2015: the guide explains both the general reporting methodology and provides specific guidance for preparing Country Reports. [::] Terms and Definitions document: the document provides definitions for all terms and categories reported in the country reports. Most definitions are complemented by explanatory notes. [\n] For more on FRA 2015, see the article by MacDicken on '' Global Forest Resources Assessment 2015: What, why and how?'' or the FRA website.
