Description
Satellite image showing radial patterns of deforestation in Bolivia, where Chiquitano dry forests in Tierras Bajas region, east of Santa Cruz have been cleared for agricultural use. Since the 1980s, this region has been rapidly deforested due to the relatively flat lowlands and abundant rainfall that make it suitable for farming. Image obtained by the Operation Land Imager (OLI) on the Landsat 8 satellite on the 22nd of August 2022.
