Spatial Variability and Disincentives to Harvest: Deforestation and Fuelwood Collection in South Asia
研究了印度通过建立人工林减少家庭薪柴采集对天然林压力的效果，发现人工林确实降低了天然林的采集压力，但质疑了紧邻天然林的缓冲区人工林的作用。
<i>A major strategy to combat deforestation caused by household fuel collection has been the establishment of plantations, especially in India. A household model is specified with a number of collection possibilities and analyzed empirically using household, vegetation, and GIS data, and the potential decrease in collection from the natural forest is estimated. The results show reduced pressure on the natural forest due to the establishment of plantations. It also questions buffer zone plantations very close to natural forests.</i>
