IFLs have high conservation value and are critical for stabilizing terrestrial carbon storage, harboring biodiversity, regulating hydrological regimes, and providing other ecosystem functions.
  • -  Dataset includes shapefiles for intact forest landscapes for the years 2000, 2013, 2016, and 2020, as well as forest zone extent.
