Mapping the world's dry forests The extent of forest area in dryland habitats, which occupy more than 40% Earth's land surface, is uncertain compared with that other biomes. Bastin et al. provide a global estimate drylands, calculated from high-resolution satellite images covering 200,000 plots. Forests drylands are much extensive previously reported and cover total similar to tropical rainforests or boreal forests. This increases estimates by at least 9%, finding will be important...
