2. Ecosystem extent
The mismatch between the total area of the country and marzes derived from land cover data and the official figures is due to discrepancies in the boundaries of the digital maps used, as well as unaccounted variation in pixel area caused by terrain across Armenia. These discrepancies should be addressed in the development of a national ecosystem extent accounting in Armenia.
