About this data
This dataset traces net changes in terms of volume in the growing stock of standing wood on forest land. Forest depletion and growth describe balances or imbalances in different types of forests. The intensity of use of forest resources reflects various forest management methods and their sustainability. These data should be read in connection with other indicators, in particular land use changes and forest quality (species diversity, forest degradation), and be complemented with data on forest management practices and protection measures. Please bear in mind that definitions and estimation methods vary for some countries. For details see: Data source(s): OECD Annual Quality Assurance (AQA) questionnaire.
