A climate change atlas for Africa of tree species prioritized for forest landscape restoration in Ethiopia

Our Climate Change Atlas for African trees shows how alterations in environmental conditions caused by human-caused climate change are likely to affect the locations where tree species can grow in Africa. This is important for planning tree-based forest landscape restoration and other tree planting activities into the future, to ensure that the right species are chosen for particular locations.
