Abstract

Assessing the impacts of forest harvesting activities on Aboriginal people and incorporating these considerations into forest management plans is one of the challenges facing Canadian forest managers. In this study, we model hunting behavior using stated and revealed preference data on subsistence use of wildlife resources. We use this framework to assess the impacts of forest management changes on Aboriginal people in northwestern Saskatchewan. Innovative approaches to data collection are employed to address challenges in obtaining data in these contexts. The econometric analysis combines the stated and revealed preference information to account for limitations in the revealed preference data. Monetary measures of welfare are examined, but we also assess resource compensation and zoning as mechanisms for addressing the impact of forest harvesting on subsistence wildlife use. The results also demonstrate the use of geographic information system information in linking forest management and Aboriginal resource use. FOR. SCI. 50(2):139–152.

森林管理对原住民狩猎者影响的评估：来自声明和揭示偏好数据的证据

评估森林采伐活动对原住民的影响并将这些考虑因素纳入森林管理计划是加拿大森林管理者面临的挑战之一。在本研究中，我们利用有关野生动植物资源自给性使用的陈述偏好和揭示偏好数据来模拟狩猎行为。我们利用这一框架来评估森林管理变化对萨斯喀彻温省西北部原住民的影响。我们采用了创新的数据收集方法，以应对在这些情况下获取数据所面临的挑战。计量经济学分析结合了陈述偏好和揭示偏好信息，以考虑揭示偏好数据的局限性。我们对福利的货币衡量标准进行了研究，同时还对资源补偿和分区机制进行了评估，以解决森林采伐对自给性野生动物利用的影响。研究结果还证明了地理信息系统信息在将森林管理和原住民资源使用联系起来方面的用途。FOR.SCI.50(2):139-152.
