Resumen
Descripción
In this paper, it is argued that adequately assessing the implications of the current patterns of woodfuel production and use and the sustainable potentials of woodfuel resources, particularly within developing countries, requires a holistic view and a better knowledge of the spatial patterns of woodfuel supply and demand. There is a need to conduct multi-scale spatially-explicit analyses of woodfuel supply and demand that are able to articulate the local heterogeneity into the regional and nati onal levels. Studies that provide full-country coverage and are based on a consistent integration of data at lower geographical scales are critically lacking. These studies should be based on a spatial representation of woodfuel use and production patterns in order to identify priority areas and hot spots for intervention.
