Abstract
Abstract: Estimates of forest area vary according to source and definition. How forest is defined can influence how deforestation, reforestation and afforestation can be interpreted. This paper illustrates some of the difference for estimates of forest land in Turkey and how changes in €˜forest' may be interpreted. I also provide some suggestions for developing clearer definitions.
Keywords: Forest, deforestation, reforestation, afforestation, Turkey.

Abstract
Orman alanına ilişkin tahminler çeşitli kaynaklarda değişik tanımlara göre farklılık arzeder. Ormanın nasıl
tanımlandığı ormansızlaşma, tekrar ormanlaştırma ve ormanlaştırmanın nasıl yorumlanabileceğini de etkileyebilir.
İşte bu makale, Türkiye’de orman sahalarına ilişkin tahminlerin FAO’dan farklılıklarını ve ormanın farklı tanımlarının
ormansızlaşma, tekrar ormanlaştırma ve ormanlaştırma açısından nasıl yorumlanabileceğini örneklendirmektedir.
Ardından, daha açık tanımlar geliştirmeye yönelik bazı öneriler ortaya koyuyorum.
