The AHEAD project explores the historical use of fuelwood in South American deserts, examining how it influenced human survival strategies. By analyzing charcoal and environmental data, it aims to provide insights into past resource management and its implications for climate models.
Fuel availability can constrain human occupation of desert environments – fuel availability is as important as water, food and building materials.
The aim of AHEAD is to reveal the use of fuelwood resources in negotiating human survival in three contrasting desert areas in South America over the long-term; from foraging subsistence societies to colonial mining exploitation.
The three study sites cover a range of altitudinal zones, allowing comparison between inland (hyperarid) vs coast (arid) de…
