This map was created by overlaying the data from Mountains of the World - 2002 with a global data set on percent tree cover. The percent tree cover data are taken from MODIS 1-km resolution percent tree cover data set, courtesy of University of Maryland Global Land Cover Facility.
Mountain forests provide a range of services to mountain communities and to people outside mountain areas, and have a key role in the maintenance of global
biodiversity. Species richness, density and forest height tend to reduce with increasing altitude; the boundary between forest vegetation and more open ground cover at higher elevation 'the treeline' is an ecological marker signifying the transition to more extreme climatic conditions.
