Abstract: Deforestation is an increasingly visible and heatedly debated issue in Romania. This PhD thesis aims to join the argument and accurately determine forest dynamics in two counties by comparing satellite data recorded roughly 20 years apart. Additionally, it will attempt to establish a correlation between changes in forest cover and the occurrence of extreme events. If successful, the analysis will subsequently be conducted nationally.
Keywords: deforestation, land use, satellite imagery, extreme events.
