Fig. 7: Treated and untreated grid cells.
From: Evidence on scaling forest restoration from the Atlantic Forest Restoration Pact in Brazil

PACTO parcels are shown in yellow, and part of the 5 km untreated buffer area in pink. Units of analysis are defined by a grid of 2 ha cells. Units that have any overlap with a PACTO parcel are considered treated for the purposes of matching and the binary treatment analysis. The percent covered by a PACTO parcel is also calculated and used for the continuous treatment analysis. Parcel shapes vary, with some more centrally-condensed as in (a) and others more snakelike as in (b). The latter leads to a larger proportion of partially-treated units.
