Taylor Madison on 20 Jan 12anyqs How has the tree distribution has changed since 2002? It would be valuable to see areas of recent over-logging in red and areas of new growth in a lighter green.

zachary sanicola on 22 Jan 12anyqs This visualization is pretty interesting however I feel its lacking something to compare it to. I wonder how this tree distribution differs from the pre-industrial revolution distribution? Is today's tree distribution worse than before because of pollution and over-foresting? I also agree with Taylor, I think a different color like red to show recent over-logging would be very valuable to the viewer. anyqs

Peter McNally on 22 Jan 12anyqs I wonder how the distribution of trees in the North West would change if we counted trees, not Biomass in tonnes, since so many of the trees there are large Redwoods which are considerably heavier trees due to their size.
