dc.descriptioneng: The literature on tropical forest-cover change observes a set of drivers responsible for transitions toward reforestation – the so-called 'forest transition'. Uncertainty still exists over how the drivers behave in the transition and how trends in reforestation manifest in different contexts. Focusing on the Panamanian agricultural frontier of the Bayano-Darién, this thesis combines household surveys, remote sensing / GIS analysis and participant observation to describe nascent trends in reforestation for key actors and scales, and in relation to antecedent patterns pattern of land-cover change. Results indicate that the forest-transition is aligned with the patterns of previous land-cover change. In Eastern Panama, reforestation appears as a fringe event in the landscape. Though reforestation is popular with some large-scale actors, smallholders continue to convert forest to pasture, resulting in net deforestation.
dc.descriptionfre: La littérature concernant le changement de couvert forestier tropical observe qu'il y a une série de facteurs de changements occasionnant un phénomène de reforestation, dénommé la 'transition forestière'. Des incertitudes persistent quand aux comportements de ces facteurs de changements dans ces transitions forestières, ainsi que relatives à la manière dont se manifestent différentes tendances dans différents contextes. Cette thèse se focalise sur la frontière agricole dans la région de Bayano-Darien au Panama. Elle allie des enquêtes ménages, l'analyse d'images satellitaires/systèmes d'information géographique (SIG) et l'observation directe afin de décrire des tendances émergentes de reforestation chez des acteurs et à des échelles clés et mettre en relation des changements précédents d'occupation du sol. Les résultats indiquent que la transition forestière est liée avec des utilisations passées du territoire. Dans l'est du Panama, la reforestation apparaît comme un phénomène marginal dans le paysage. Malgré le fait que la reforestation soit populaire avec certains grands acteurs, les petits propriétaires terriens continuent a convertir forets en pâturages, ce qui résulte en une déforestation nette.
