Initially, the inventory methods, in particular the problems of data collection and data evaluation, are described in the Report. Of natural conditions the climate of Liberia is discussed in detail, as it has a major influence on the distribution of tree species, and certain climatic regions are defined. Vegetation zones, forest types, the influence of human settlement and of the animal world on the structure of the closed forest are described to the extent possible on the basis of our inventory results, and a calculation of the total area of closed forest has been derived from these data.

    Assessment of forest data availability and related technical capacity needs in West Africa 2023
    Also available in:
    This forest data assessment was conducted as part of the five-year Global Transformation of Forests for People and Climate: a focus on West Africa project, funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida). This document aims to provide quality data to support decision-making and sustainable management of forest and land resources at both national and subregional levels. It also seeks to develop processes that could be replicated in other subregions within Africa and outside the region. This document is one of the outputs of the project and provides information on existing forest data in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) countries, critical information gaps on forest condition and land use and land cover dynamics, and capacity development needs.

    Forest assessment and monitoring 2002
    Also available in:
    The Global Forest Resources Assessment 2000 (FRA 2000) is now completed, but work has already begun on the next global assessment. The expert consultation "Global Forest Resources Assessments - Linking National and International Efforts", known as Kotka IV, brought together international experts in July 2002 to address future concepts and strategies. The articles in this issue of Unasylva are adapted for a wider audience from papers prepared for the meeting. Without going into technical detail, they explore links among assessment and monitoring, national and international information needs, criteria and indicators for sustainable forest management, and reporting of forest-related information to international instruments. The technical details can be found on the FAO Web site (www.fao.org/forestry) and will be published in the Kotka IV proceedings.
