Universidad de Zaragoza Continuity, change, and geographical differences in Spain's firewood consumption: A new estimation (1860-2010) 2019 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Although firewood was the main energy source until recently in most parts of the world, our understanding of its consumption levels is still quite limited, even in regard to recent periods. The powerful impact of fossil energy carriers and their major effects on global ecology, economy and society have led us to underestimate the role firewood has continued to play during the energy transition. This article offers a new reconstruction of long-ter m firewood consumption in Spain, taking into consideration variables related to supply and demand, which are then used to reconstruct the production, appropriation and energy uses of firewood biomass. This new series distinguishes also between the origins (forest or crop firewood), and between different regional behaviors. The main findings indicate that total and per-inhabitant consumption has been greater than traditionally assumed; that there was major regional divergence, with consumption varying significantly from one area to another; that the decline in firewood consumption was gradual and later than previously thought; and that it increased or declined over time in a non-linear fashion. Moreover, the traditionally neglected estimation of the role of woody crops was found to be very significant in this process, as it represented between 20% and 70% of total consumption for the whole data series. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/Historia de la economía Agroalimentaria siglos XIX y XX info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/ECO2015-65582-P info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/SustainableFarm Systems info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 0.634 2019 0.18 2019 HISTORY 31 / 100 = 0.31 2019 Q2 T1 History 2019 Q2 Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous) 2019 Q3 Multidisciplinary 2019 Q3 Agricultural and Biological Sciences (miscellaneous) 2019 Q3 Geography, Planning and Development 2019 Q3 info:eu-repo/semantics/review info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Infante-Amate, J. 4008 480 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
