- W94189235 abstract "The greatest challenge to theory in human ecology has been how to define the unit of study so that it can be reasonably well studied, while at the same time not losing sight of the larger whole or ecosystem within which human beings interact with their biophysical surroundings. Some relevant theoretical approaches used to address particular questions include those aiming at explaining patterns of agriculture intensification (e.g., Boserupian and Von-Thunenian models), and household development cycles (e.g., Chaianovian models). In this project we ask what the role of household demographic structure on observed rates of deforestation might be. The study of human impacts on land cover can follow any number of approaches. What we have found most useful is to take a multi-scaled approach that examines at each level of aggregation both biophysical and socioeconomic variables. We have used a variety of methods of data collection and mined a variety of data sources: time-series Landsat satellite data; survey research; stratified random sampling of properties; registering property boundaries onto satellite image time series in a geographic information system; carried out soil and vegetation stand sampling with precise coordinates using GPS; examined the reproductive histories of women and their decisions using survey research at the household level; and obtained time series price data and other economic statistical time-series. A key goal of this study was to understand whether trajectories of deforestation could be better understood knowing the age and general structure of households through time, rather than just in aggregate number. We think that our study does show the technical feasibility of examining land use and land cover change at the level of households and properties — and that the insights are worth the effort and investment required to achieve it." @default.
