Forest transition phase

Countries are grouped into four forest transition phases which tend to represent a sequence of development. (1) Pre-transition: high forest cover and low deforestation rates; (2) Early-transition: forests lost at an increasingly rapid rate; (3) Late-transition: small fraction of remaining forest but slowing of deforestation; (4) Post-transition: forest cover increases through reforestation.
