He extended Roman territory to the sea, founding the port of Ostia, establishing salt-works around the port, and taking the Silva Maesia, an area of coastal forest north of the Tiber, from the Veientes.

The area is 14, 662. 8 hectares, which includes 42. 2 % ( 6, 186. 2 hectares ) agriculturally used area and 37. 7 % ( 5, 534. 9 hectares ) of forest.

The majority of Southeast Alaska's area is part of the Tongass National Forest, the United States ' largest national forest.

In addition to the expected kinds of wildlife to be found in a European forest area, the following types of animals may be observed in the Black Forest.

This area of tropical forest has been categorised by the World Wildlife Fund as the Cameroonian Highlands forests ecoregion with Mount Cameroon considered separately because as an active volcano it has a distinct environment from the other mountains.

The native laurel forest species are in wet area only in mountainous areas.

There are 22. 9 million hectares ( 56. 5 million acres ) of forest ( 37 percent of the total land area ), but only 3. 4 million hectares ( 8. 4 million acres ) of dense forest, all in the south in the regions bordering the DRC.

The forest area change may follow a pattern suggested by the forest transition ( FT ) theory, whereby at early stages in its development a country is characterized by high forest cover and low deforestation rates ( HFLD countries ).

A 2005 report by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization ( FAO ) estimates that although the Earth's total forest area continues to decrease at about 13 million hectares per year, the global rate of deforestation has recently been slowing.

The London-based Rainforest Foundation notes that " the UN figure is based on a definition of forest as being an area with as little as 10 % actual tree cover, which would therefore include areas that are actually savannah-like ecosystems and badly damaged forests.

For example, while burning an area of fairly thick forest and thus turning it into a more open, grassy environment might reduce the viability of a large browser ( an animal that eats leaves and shoots rather than grasses ), the reverse could also be true: removing the browsing animals ( by eating them, or by any other means ) within a few years produces a very thick undergrowth which, when a fire eventually starts through natural causes ( as fires tend to do every few hundred years ), burns with greater than usual ferocity.

Of this area 10 % is water, 69 % forest, 8 % cultivated land and 13 % other.
