Abstract:

Succession following shifting cultivation was studied in secondary forests (5 to 40 years old) and a primary forest in Bragantina region, Para, Brazil. Secondary forests covered 62% of the study area (89 km² ) and crops and pasture 18%. Soil analyses showed an increase in pH, exchangeable calcium, magnesium and potassium and a decrease of organic matter and exchangeable aluminium, immediately after burning. Organic matter and extractable phosphorus increased with forest age, exchangeable aluminium and potassium were the same in both secondary and primary forests and exchangeable calcium and ma

Abstract:

Despite the long history of anxiety about shifting cultivation practices by small-scale farmers in Central African forests causing deforestation, this is the first study that examines the temporal and spatial dynamics of shifting cultivation landscapes and the influence of landscape configuration on secondary vegetation regrowth in fallows. This is important not least because, within the landscape matrix, fallow vegetation is crucial to alleviate effects of losses of forest vegetation, and biodiversity as well as negative impacts on carbon balance. Moreover, fallows provide food, beverage, fue

Abstract:

This thesis explores how Katuic-speaking indigenous groups in the Central Annamitic Cordillera of Vietnam and Laos understand their environment – hills, streams and forest. Katuic eco-cosmology assumes that the natural landscape is imbued with spirit agents, with whom people must continuously communicate lest misfortune will strike and their livelihoods fail. The thesis posits the hypothesis that these spirit beliefs, and a variety of taboo notions accompanying them, can be interpreted as expressions of a complex socio-environmental adaptation. Today, the indigenous groups in the study region

Abstract:

Shifting cultivation is considered to be a key cause of deforestation in the tropics as agriculturalists transform the rain forest into cropland and later allow for its regeneration through fallowing. Forest fallows strongly influence the ecological and economic potential of shifting cultivation, yet, secondary forest management among shifting cultivators remains poorly understood. This study focuses on secondary forest management among peasant households in a land-abundant ejido, near the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve of Mexico. Data were gathered through in-depth household interviews and field

Abstract:

"Slash-and-burn" agriculture, or shifting cultivation, is perceived by many to be the leading cause of land degradation in tropical forests. Performed mainly by resource-poor farmers, shifting cultivation is the most widespread form of agriculture in the tropics. Concern over its environmental impacts has led to calls throughout the twentieth century for alternatives by policy-makers and development planners. This study employs a constructivist framework, post-colonial perspectives, and rhetorical methods to understand the images which support such assertions regarding shifting cultivation, pr

Abstract:

Researchers recognize the need to better understand the factors influencing indigenous land use in order to design sustainable tropical forest management programs. A key relationship that has been long overlooked in peasant societies is the one between communal labor access through social networks and land acquisition/accumulation. This study examines land distribution and labor patterns in traditional agriculture of a lowland and a upland community on the Maranon River near Iquitos, Peru. Data were gathered through household interviews (n=76) and field visits (n=396) between June and November

Abstract:

Wild plant resources are harvested and managed by people in a variety of land-uses but few studies examine the interactions of landscape dynamics and the use and availability of wild plant resources. I address this question using a case study of common property lands with a history of community forestry and traditional shifting cultivation. Specifically I ask: What is the perceived importance of plant resources obtained in agricultural and forest environments? Have forest and agricultural land-use/land covers changed? How do landscape changes, and in particular shorter fallow times, influence

Abstract:

Increasing human populations, declining crop yields and reductions in per capita arable land area suggest that shifting cultivation as traditionally practiced in much of the humid tropics is no longer a sustainable farming practice. The use of nitrogen-fixing trees such as Leucaena leucocephala (Lam. de Wit) (leucaena) as a fallow species may be an important strategy to maintain or improve crop yields in shifting cultivation where natural resources are rapidly declining. A series of experiments comparing leucaena and non-leucaena fallows was conducted on sites with fallows established b

Abstract:

La degradación del bosque tropical causada por la agricultura indigena tradicional y la explotación forestal comercial fue evaluada, en el sector central de la Reserva Forestal Imataca en la Guayana venezolana.El enfoque conceptual de paisajes permitió combinar dos niveles de análisis, local y paisajes, con el objeto de detectar las relaciones espaciales que forman patrones, gradientes y estructuras, útiles para el seguimiento y control de los usos del bosque tropical y su estado de conservación.

Abstract:

Fires are the primary method of deforestation and agricultural management in the tropics, but associated emissions such as aerosols, ozone, and carbon monoxide can have negative impacts on ecosystems, climate, and public health. Recent advances in satellite monitoring of fire activity, including using thermal anomalies for active fire detections and burn scar mapping of post-fire effects, have offered an unprecedented level of detail in understanding the magnitude and extent of fire activity. This dissertation aims to quantify the human health impact across populations in tropical regions by d
