The role of population in understanding Honduran land use patterns

Article Abstract:

A statistical analysis at 'supra-local' level was used to test whether biophysical, climatic, and socioeconomic factors need to be considered when distribution of land use is to be understood. It is suggested that for a specific window of temporal and spatial scale, land use patterns can be described with very simple relationships, with a strong contribution of population density.
