Key Points

To evaluate long-term forest cover change trajectories across humid tropical regions using continuous satellite observation data from 1990 to 2019.
Analyzed satellite observations spanning a 30-year observation window (1990–2019) across the humid tropics.
Characterized multi-decadal trajectories of tropical forest change across the humid tropics using 30 years of satellite observations.
Provided continuous, long-term observational monitoring records of tropical forest dynamics.
