Lithosphere rigidity by adjoint-based inversion of interseismic GPS data, application to the Western United States Auteur(s) : Furst, Severine PEYRET, Michel CHERY, Jean MOHAMMADI, Bijan Auteurs secondaires : Géosciences Montpellier ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) - Institut national des sciences de l'Univers (INSU - CNRS) - Université de Montpellier (UM) - Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) Institut Montpelliérain Alexander Grothendieck (IMAG) ; Université de Montpellier (UM) - Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD Elsevier Résumé : International audience While vertical motion induced by long-term geological loads is often used to estimate the flexural rigidity of the lithosphere, we intend to evaluate the shear rigidity of the lithosphere using horizontal motion. Our approach considers that the rigidity of the lithosphere may be defined as its resistance to horizontal tectonic lateral forces. In this case, a spatial distribution of an effective shear rigidity can be estimated from the analysis of the interseismic velocity fields. We consider the Western United States zone where weakly strained areas (e.g., the Sierra Nevada) are connected with areas of large strain rate (e.g. San Andreas Fault system). By inverting interseismic strain distribution measured by geodetic methods, we infer the effective shear rigidity of the lithosphere. The forward problem is defined using the equations of linear elasticity. The inversion relies on the minimization of the sum of a quadratic measure of the differences between measured and modelled velocity fields. The functional also includes regularization terms for the parameters of the model. The gradient of the functional with respect to the minimization parameters is computed using an adjoint formulation. This permits the treatment of large dimensional minimization problems. Finally, a measure of the uncertainty of our inversion is illustrated through the covariance matrix of the parameters at the optimum. The optimization chart is validated on two synthetic velocity distributions. Then, the effective shear rigidity variations of the Western United States are estimated using the CMM3 interseismic velocities. The inversion displays low effective rigidities along the San Andreas Fault system, the Mojave Desert and in the Eastern California Shear Zone, while rigid areas are found in the Sierra Nevada and in the South Basin and Range. Finally, we discuss the differences between our strain rate and rigidity maps with previously published results for the Western United States.

Management of the coastal biophysical environment in tropical Queensland under conditions of heavy developmental pressure: the case of tourist resorts and acid sulphate soils Auteur(s) : Erfurt-Haupt, Patricia Cooper, Malcolm Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : The tropical coast of Queensland, Australia is experiencing rapid population and tourism growth. Heavy development pressure is being placed on the biophysical environment, which includes the largest sand island in the world (World Heritage listed), Fraser Island. Despite the existence of State planning legislation oriented towards environmental sustainability, it is apparent that little, if any, regard is being paid to the long-term effects of resort and canal-estate development on the underlying biophysical environment of the coast and islands. While the remarkable surface features of the tropical coastal environment such as the surf beaches, the unique dune lakes, and the coastal vegetation, as well as the prolific wildlife, are used as selling points for new settlement and above all tourism, little is known or apparently of major concern with respect to the long term environmental impact of coastal development. While the crowding effect of large numbers of visitors and their impact on the natural environment - through significant degradation, site hardening or lack of proper on-site management – has been identified as a particular problem in certain areas, there is little knowledge of impacts on the underlying coastal geomorphology. In particular, developmental choices are often made in ignorance of, or disregard of, the widespread existence of tropical acid sulfate soils in that coastal environment. Reactive soils such as these can, and do, greatly affect the biophysical outcomes of a development if they are exposed. This paper documents such impacts in the form of a case study of the acid sulfate soil problem in relation to the development of tourist resorts, and suggests that part of the solution is for the State Government to insist on enforceable standards relating to their development for tourism in the coastal zone. These would reduce the use by many resort owners of fancy golf course developments as an environmental cover up to make it look as if they put a lot of effort into protecting the environment…. La côte tropicale du Queensland est confrontée à un accroissement rapide de la population. Les fortes pressions anthropiques pèsent sur le milieu biophysique, qui comprend notamment a plus grande île de sable du monde, un site classé Patrimoine de l’Humanité, Port Hinchinbrook et Fraser Island. Malgré l’existence d’une législation nationale orientée vers la préservation de l’environnement, il est manifeste que peu d’attention est accordée aux effets à long terme des sites touristiques et du développement de l’urbanisation sur ces franges côtières sensibles. L’aspect massif des flux de visiteurs et leurs impacts sur le milieu naturel a été identifié comme un sujet d’inquiétude particulier dans certaines régions. La connaissance des impacts sur la géomorphologie côtière souterraine est très réduite et les choix de développement sont souvent faits dans l’ignorance ou au mépris de la présence répandue de terrains de sulfate d’acide dans ce milieu côtier. Des sols réactifs comme ceux-là peuvent affecter, et affectent, grandement les résultats géophysiques d’un développement lorsqu’ils sont connus. Des études de cas sur le problème des sols de sulfate d’acide suggèrent qu’une partie de la solution pour le gouvernement de l’Etat du Queensland est d’imposer des normes obligatoires pour le développement du tourisme dans la zone côtière.

On the difference on two maximal monotone operators: Regularization and algorithmic approaches Auteur(s) : Moudafi, Abdellatif Auteurs secondaires : Groupe de Recherche en Informatique et Mathématiques Appliquées Antilles-Guyane (GRIMAAG) ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD Elsevier Résumé : International audience Relying on the Yosida approximate, we investigate the problem of finding zeroes for a difference of two maximal monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. These zeroes are compared to those of the corresponding regularized and dual problems. The behavior of the regularized operator is also studied and a splitting algorithm involving the resolvents of both operators is suggested via a fixed-point formulation of the regularized problem. A particular attention is given to the DC programming case. ISSN: 0096-3003 hal-00779986 https://hal.univ-antilles.fr/hal-00779986 DOI : 10.1016/j.amc.2008.01.024 | Partager |
Assessment of tropical shrimp aquaculture impact on the environment in tropical countries, using hydrobiology, ecology and remote sensing as helping tools for diagnosis Auteur(s) : Fuchs, Jacques Martin, Jean-louis M. Populus, Jacques Résumé : After a period of rapid development of the sites (an increase in both reared surface area and production), tropical shrimp aquaculture is currently being faced with critical problems due to economical and ecological constraints. In many countries with favourable conditions for shrimp aquaculture such as indonesia or Vietnam, sites are often badly selected and/or over-exploited. This conducts to sorne extent to decreases or collapses in the production due to the difficulty in predicting the maximum production capacity of the sites. Furthermore, it appears that production sustainability depends on many factors among which socio-economy and ecolo gy are of prime importance.
The STD3 project titled « Assessment of tropical shrimp aquaculture impact on the environment in tropical countries using hydrobiology, ecology and remote sensing as helping tools for diagnosis )) was initiated in 1994, with the aim to study the sustainability of marine shrimp aquaculture in tropical areas, main! y Indonesia and Vietnam, through the following tasks: (i) improve site selection and study the impact of aquaculture on marine environments presenting a variable sensitivity to organic sewage, (ii) analyse the socio-economical aspects and profitability of the aquaculture industry and of common resources (iii) use remote sensing and geographical data bases for diagnosis and monitoring of site degradation (iv) reinforce the capacity of Asian
scientists through training.
Severa! aquaculture sites have been investigated in the Lampung region (South Sumatra, Indonesia), the Mekong delta (Vietnam) and on the West coast of New-Caledonia, providing a large range of typical ecosystems encountered in Asia and in the Pacifie, from coralline sites to coastal plains with mangrove and deltaic areas. The study concerned the spatial structure and seasonal influence of these ecosystems, the temporal variation during the course of the project (3 years) and the relation between the ecological structure and farm productions.
Remote sensing provides a synoptic vision over large land expanses. Severa! scenes were processed for landuse mapping using conventional classification techniques. Concerning water quality assessment, a general relation for the Java sea was found between image and field data in terms of total suspended matter. Applying this relation to a new site in Sumatra has provided an initial approach to water type and, together with land use mapping, a preliminary assessment of the suitability of the area to shrimp aquaculture development.
Socio-economic research has been focused on the identification ofneeds for collective action, including public policy, in the perspective of shrimp farming sustainability. The main concern is in the regulation of shrimp farming intensification and extensification at the scale of coastal ecosystemic entities in a common property resource management perspective. The common considered here is coastal water quality. Comparing the local development profiles and the institutional grounds for the design and implementation of collective management rules shows that variables such as land tenure system, farm owner socio-economic profile, social homogeneity or heterogeneity of the farmers are key factors to analyse the potential for sustainability. The defmition of
water quality and the possible means to ensure its collective management are discussed. The main conclusion is that the economie incentives to farming development are strong but there is no significant difference among traditional, semi-intensive and intensive systems in terms of economie efficiency or wealth distribution.
The description of the functioning of the different kinds of ecosystems make it possible to give an advice concerning the positioning of the activity inside the ecosystem, and furthermore to have a reference state in order to determine the impact of the activity on the coastal environnement. This impact can be summarized as an increase in the concentration of total suspended matt€?r, of particulate organic matter and of sulfate reducing bacterias. This organic ma~.er is either issued from rearing activities or from telluric origine, due to mangrove eradication when building the ponds.
An evaluation of the relationship existing between productivity and characteristics of each ecosystem bas been conducted by correlating ecological indicators data (concentration of total suspended matter, particulate organic matter, chlorophyll, percentage of pheopigments in total pigments and cyanobacteria and sulfatereducing bacteria in water and sediments) with the average production of the farms. This comparison lead to the compilation of a scale of observed production integrating the range of these environmental parameters with shrimp production levels, bound to facilitate the positioning of shrimp farming in relation with the confmement leve! of each ecosystem.
Lastly, ali geographie data originated from the various compartments of the study have been geo-referenced and loaded into a geographical information system. This allows to display any query made on spatial variables and their related statistical data, including the ir variations over the last few years and to reveal patterns and phenomena otherwise not obvious. Le programme mis en oeuvre par la DRV (Paris, CREMA-L'Houmeau, DELIAO Brest, COP Tahiti, GIE/RA Nouvelle Calédonie), dans le cadre d'un projet européen STD3 «(Sciences et Technique au Service du Développement», en collaboration avec l'Université de Montpellier II, l'Ecole Nationale d'Agronomie de Rennes, l'ITC (Hollande), l'Institut Océanographique de Nha Trang (Vietnam), le BADC de Jepara et le BPPT de Jakarta (Indonésie), avait pour but la mise au point de méthodes permettant d'améliorer la sélection des sites ainsi que le suivi du développement et de l'impact de l'aquaculture des crevettes Péneides en milieu tropical pour éviter la surexploitation. Quatre axes de recherche ont été défmis : a) identifier la nature et quantifier les rejets de déchets issus de ce type d'aquaculture, b) définir les caractéristiques écologiques des écosystèmes susceptibles d'accueillir l'activité aquacole et suivre leur évolution sous l'influence des rejets, c) déterminer l'influence de la gestion des fermes et des ressources (aspects économiques) sur les performances de productivité, d) déterminer la capacité de la télédétection comme outil de diagnostic d'impact à l'échelle de la région, e) mener un programme de formation d'étudiants et jeunes chercheurs Vietnamiens et Indonésiens.

The Euler Method for Linear Control Systems Revisited Auteur(s) : Pietrus, Alain Veliov, Vladimir Haunschmied, Josef Auteurs secondaires : Laboratoire de Mathématiques Informatique et Applications (LAMIA) ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD springer Résumé : International audience Although optimal control problems for linear systems have been profoundly investigated in the past 50-60 years, the issue of numerical approximations and precise error analyses remains challenging due the bang-bang structure of the optimal controls. Based on a recent paper by M. Quincampoix and V.M. Veliov on metric regularity of the optimality conditions for control problems of linear systems the paper presents new error estimates for the Euler discretization scheme applied to such problems. It turns out that the accuracy of the Euler method depends on the "controllability index" associated with the optimal solution, and a sharp error estimate is given in terms of this index. The result extends and strengthens in several directions some recently published ones.

Participatory approaches and reef fisheries monitoring ; Approches participatives : une solution pour le suivi des pêcheries récifales ? Auteur(s) : Brenier, Ambroise Mahafina, Jamal Galzin, René Ferraris, Jocelyne Auteurs secondaires : Centre de recherches insulaires et observatoire de l'environnement (CRIOBE) ; Université de Perpignan Via Domitia (UPVD) - École pratique des hautes études (EPHE) - Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) Institut Halieutique et des Sciences Marines ; Université de Toliara Laboratoire d'Excellence CORAIL (LabEX CORAIL) ; Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD) - Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) - École des hautes études en sciences sociales (EHESS) - École pratique des hautes études (EPHE) - Institut Français de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la Mer (IFREMER) - Université de la Réunion (UR) - Université de la Polynésie Française (UPF) - Université de Nouvelle Calédonie - Institut d'écologie et environnement UR227 COREUS ; Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD EDP Sciences Résumé : International audience In order to ensure a sustainable management of reef fisheries, data need to be collected regularly on the effect of these fisheries on both fish resources and the ecosystems that sustain them. Habitat and resources monitoring programs can provide such information, but are difficult to implement as they involve a range of technical, financial and human resources. Regarding these problems, the involvement of the local population in monitoring programs, called participatory monitoring, seems to offer solutions. Indeed, participatory monitoring has the potential of increasing the number of data collected at low cost, while taking advantage of the traditional ecological knowledge available locally. Some questions need clarifying, however: which methods can bring relevant information for the monitoring of reef fisheries while being appropriate to the motivations and skills of the local population? Is the degree of participation of the local population sufficient to make the monitoring program work, particularly over the long term? To answer these questions, participatory monitoring methods commonly used for coral reef ecosystems have been implemented to assess reef fisheries at three different sites: Moorea island and Tikehau atoll in French Polynesia, and the Bay of Tulear in Madagascar. While highlighting the relevance of some participatory monitoring programs for snapshot and large-scale surveys, the results of this study also show their lesser interest for regular data gathering on long-time scales. In any case, strong coordination and supervision by scientists are considered essential. La gestion durable des écosystèmes coralliens nécessite de disposer d’informations régulières concernant l’impact des pêcheries sur les ressources récifales et sur les écosystèmes dont elles dépendent. Les suivis intégrés des ressources, des habitats et des espèces associées qui visent à fournir ce type d’informations sont difficiles à mettre en œuvre, car ils impliquent de nombreuses ressources humaines, techniques et financières. Face à ces problèmes, la participation de la société civile dans les programmes de suivi semble en mesure d’apporter des solutions. Dans le but de tester cette hypothèse, des méthodes de suivi participatif ont été mises en œuvre afin de caractériser des pêcheries récifales sur trois socio-écosystèmes contrastés : l’île de Moorea et l’atoll de Tikehau en Polynésie française, et le littoral de Tuléar à Madagascar. Les résultats de cette étude soulignent la pertinence de certains suivis participatifs pour fournir une vision écosystémique dans le cas de collecte de données ponctuelles et de large envergure, et leur intérêt moindre pour la collecte continue de données sur de longues échelles de temps. Dans tous les cas, une structure de coordination et l’implication de scientifiques s’avèrent primordiales pour assurer pérennité et fiabilité au système de suivi.

Tourisme et ressources naturelles Auteur(s) : Anfuso, Giorgio Augier, Dominique Avilés-Maldonado, Giselle Binet, Thomas Borot de Battisti, Adeline D. Den Haring, Sander Dehoorne, Olivier Ergin, Aysen Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : Ce numéro de la Revue Études Caribéennes s’intéresse aux liens qui unissent et opposent l’activité touristique et les ressources naturelles, particulièrement dans les pays du Sud. Dans un contexte de médiatisation accrue des enjeux liés à la biodiversité et aux menaces qui pèsent sur elle, le tourisme – et particulièrement l’écotourisme – est souvent présenté comme un moyen de concilier la conservation et le développement. Les autorités locales, malgré l’existence d’un cadre réglementaire propre à l’environnement, ne disposent souvent pas de moyens suffisants (humains, matériels et financiers) pour gérer la croissance de la fréquentation des aires protégées et ses effets potentiels sur l’environnement naturel et humain. En réponse à cette problématique, les institutions financières internationales et les organismes associés proposent aux pays du Sud de trouver un équilibre entre une fréquentation de masse et une fréquentation de bas volume afin de développer « un tourisme de haute qualité ». Même si cela était possible, quels critères peuvent être utilisés pour « cesser » le développement d’un pôle ou d’une région touristique ? L’évolution géographique « naturelle » du tourisme – c’est-à-dire essentiellement basée sur la mise en tourisme de la nature et sur l’accessibilité de ces ressources – pose déjà des problèmes politiques et économiques importants. Les gouvernements (central, régional ou local) sont difficilement en mesure de réaliser un arbitrage de long terme dans ce contexte qui permettrait l’adéquation entre le développement touristique et la préservation des espaces naturels. La relation entre le tourisme et les ressources naturelles s’articule souvent autour de deux objectifs spécifiques, soient : développer un produit à moindre impact, mais aux dépenses élevées et viser un volume de visiteurs qui contribue aux profits économiques, mais qui amène le moins de dégradation écologique/sociale possible. Cette position résume à elle seule à la fois la complexité et les multiples paradoxes dans lesquels s’insère la mise en tourisme de la nature. Les dynamiques sociales et l’extension de l’appropriation privative des espaces naturels et agricoles posent la problématique des modes de gestion des ressources communes et de leur pérennité, particulièrement dans les pays du Sud. Dans ce contexte, les objectifs, les ressources et les stratégies des principaux acteurs concernés sont difficilement conciliables et le système de relation qu’il induit n’est pas nécessairement en phase avec les finalités poursuivies. This edition of Revue Etudes Caribéennes focuses on the links that unite and oppose tourism and natural resources, specifically in southern countries. In a context of increased media coverage of issues related to biodiversity (including threats to it), tourism – particularly ecotourism – is often presented as a mean to reconcile conservation and development. Local authorities, despite the existence of a specific environmental regulatory framework, often have insufficient resources (human, material, financial) to manage the increase of visits to protected areas, and the potential impact of these visits on natural and human environments. In response to this problem, international financial institutions and associated organizations offer to try to find a balance between mass attendance and low volume attendance in order to develop "high quality tourism" in southern countries. Even if this were possible, what criteria can be used to "stop" the development of a tourist site or region for environmental reasons? The “natural” geographic evolution of tourism – in other words, essentially based on the development of nature tourism and accessibility of these resources – already causes huge political and economic problems. Governments (central, regional or local) are hardly able to arbitrate over the long term in a context that would allow finding a balance between tourism development and preservation of natural areas. The relationship between tourism and natural resources often revolves around two specific objectives: to develop a product with less impact, but at high cost and a target volume of visitors that contributes to economic profits, but that causes the least ecological / social degradation possible. This position epitomizes both the complexity and the many paradoxes of nature tourism development. Social interactions and the expansion of private appropriation of natural and agricultural areas highlight the challenges of managing common resources and their sustainability, especially in the southern countries. In this context, development objectives, natural resources and the strategies of key stakeholders are difficult to reconcile, and the relationship between leading actors do not always correspond with these objectives. Esta edición de “Revue Études Caribéennes” se interesa a los lazos que unen y separan la actividad turística y los recursos naturales, particularmente en los países del sur. En un contexto de mediatización en alza sobre los objetivos ligados a la biodiversidad y a las amenazas que pesan sobre ella, el turismo – y particularmente el ecoturismo – está a menudo presentado como un medio de conciliar la conservación y el desarrollo. Las autoridades locales, pese a la existencia de un cuadro propio de reglamentación al medio ambiente, no disponen habitualmente de suficientes medios (humanos, materiales y financieros) para controlar el aumento de visitas en las áreas protegidas y sus efectos potenciales sobre el ambiente natural y humano. En respuesta a esta problemática, las instituciones financieras internacionales y los organismos asociados proponen a los países del sur encontrar un equilibrio entre la frecuentación de masas y una frecuentación de bajo volumen con el objetivo de desarrollar “un turismo de alta calidad”. Incluso si fuese posible, ¿qué criterios podrían ser utilizados para “cesar” el desarrollo de un centro o una región turística? La evolución geográfica “natural” del turismo – esencialmente basada en el desarrollo del turismo de la naturaleza y el acceso de sus recursos – crean problemas políticos y económicos enormes. Los gobiernos (central, regional o local) tienen dificultades para realizar un arbitraje a largo plazo en este contexto que permitiría la adecuación entre el desarrollo turístico y la preservación de los espacios naturales. La relación entre el turismo y los recursos naturales se articula a menudo alrededor de dos objetivos específicos, sean: desarrollar un producto con mínimo impacto, pero con gastos elevados y aspirar a un volumen de visitantes que contribuya a las ganancias económicas, pero que traiga la menor degradación ecológica/social posible. Esta posición resume la complejidad y las múltiples paradojas en las cuales se encaja la puesta del turismo en la naturaleza. Las dinámicas sociales y la extensión de la apropiación privativa de los espacios naturales y agrícolas plantean una problemática en los modos de gestión de los recursos comunes y de su perennidad, particularmente en los países del sur. En este contexto, los objetivos, los recursos y las estrategias de los principales actores concernidos son difícilmente conciliables y el sistema de relación que induce no es necesariamente en la misma fase con los objetivos perseguidos.

ON THE CONTROL OF ILL-POSED DISTRIBUTED PARAMETER SYSTEMS Auteur(s) : Dorville, René Nakoulima, O Omrane, A Auteurs secondaires : UMR EcoFoG, Laboratoire Matériaux et Molécules en Milieu Amazonien (L3MA) ; Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (CNAM) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD EDP Sciences Résumé : International audience We show that the so-called low-regret (or least-regret) control by J. L. Lions [8] fits on the control of ill-posed problems. At each time, we give the characterization of the so-called no-regret control by means of singular optimality systems. For the backward heat ill-posed problem, no Slater hypothesis is assumed on the admissible set of controls U ad. This work is two pieces, and two methods are considered : the regularization method and the null-controllability method. For the first method, a zero order corrector is used, while for the second method, the passage to the limit is easy.

Synthesis on moored FADs in the North West Pacific region Auteur(s) : Kakuma, S Éditeur(s) : Pêche thonière et dispositifs de concentration de poissons, Caribbean-Martinique, 15-19 Oct 1999 Résumé : In early 1980s, fad fisheries were introduced from the Philippines to Japan, mainly to Okinawa. The fisheries have well developed becoming one of the main fisheries in Okinawa where 210 fads are approved to deploy in 1999. The annual catch by roughly 1 000 boats (most of them are small) is 2500-4000 mt; average catch from one fad is about 20 mt; average catch by one boat on one day is 73 kilogrammes. fads are also important for easing the fishing pressures on bottom fish stocks. Most of the fads were deployed and managed by local fishermen's groups that have improved the structures of the system to withstand typhoons. The catches are strongly depending on the sites, usually the farther offshore, the better the catches. A variety of fishing methods are devised targeting each species and the size of the fish. Being most abundant and having relatively higher prices, yellowfin tuna is the most important and consists 68% of the total production. There have been conflicts among fishermen on the use of fads since the early stage of the fisheries development. Now, the number of fads is regulated by a management committee. Conflicts between fishermen and sport fishermen have become problems; on the other hand, the sport fishing could lead to further development of the fisheries. Degraded fish meat caused by high meat temperature and occasional oversupply have been major marketing problems since prices are strongly related to the meat quality and the fish supply.

From Frequent Features to Frequent Social Links Auteur(s) : Stattner, Erick Collard, Martine Auteurs secondaires : Laboratoire de Mathématiques Informatique et Applications (LAMIA) ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD IGI Global Résumé : International audience Standard data mining techniques have been applied and adapted for eliciting knowledge from social networks, by achieving classical tasks such as classification, search for frequent patterns or link prediction. Most works have exploited only the network topological structure, and therefore cannot be used to answer questions involving nodes features. For instance, the frequent pattern discovery task generally refers to the search for sub-networks frequently found in a single network or in a set of networks. In the same area, this paper focuses on the concept of frequent link that stands as a regularity found in a network on links between node groups that share common characteristics. The extraction of such links from a social network is a particularly challenging and computationally intensive problem, since it is much dependent on the number of links and attributes. In this study, we propose a solution for reducing the search space of frequent links, by filtering the nodes features on a criterion of frequency. We make the assumption that frequent links occur between sets of features that are themselves frequent. This property is used to reduce the search space and speed up the extraction process. We empirically show that it is well founded. We discuss the efficiency of the solution in terms of computation time and number of frequent patterns found depending on several frequency thresholds.

Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD Elsevier Résumé : International audience The increased use of pesticides has caused concern over the possible direct association of exposure to combinations of these compounds with bee health problems. There is growing proof that bees are regularly exposed to mixtures of agrochemicals, but most research has been focused on managed bees living in farmland, whereas little is known about exposure of wild bees, both in farmland and urban habitats. To determine exposure of wild bumblebees to pesticides in agricultural and urban environments through the season, specimens of five different species were collected from farms and ornamental urban gardens in three sampling periods. Five neonicotinoid insecticides, thirteen fungicides and a pesticide synergist were analysed in each of the specimens collected. In total, 61% of the 150 individuals tested had detectable levels of at least one of the compounds, with boscalid being the most frequently detected (35%), followed by tebuconazole (27%), spiroxamine (19%), carbendazim (11%), epoxiconazole (8%), imidacloprid (7%), metconazole (7%) and thiamethoxam (6%). Quantifiable concentrations ranged from 0.17 to 54.4 ng/g (bee body weight) for individual pesticides. From all the bees where pesticides were detected, the majority (71%) had more than one compound, with a maximum of seven pesticides detected in one specimen. Concentrations and detection frequencies were higher in bees collected from farmland compared to urban sites, and pesticide concentrations decreased through the season. Overall, our results show that wild bumblebees are exposed to multiple pesticides when foraging in agricultural and urban landscapes. Such mixtures are detected in bee tissues not just during the crop flowering period, but also later in the season. Therefore, contact with these combinations of active compounds might be more prolonged in time and widespread in the environment than previously assumed. These findings may help to direct future research and pesticide regulation strategies to promote the conservation of wild bee populations.

Une étude mathématique des équations aux dérivées partielles non linéaires présentant des solutions irrégulières ; A mathematical study of nonlinear partial differential equations exibiting irregular solutions Auteur(s) : Colombeau, Mathilde Auteurs secondaires : Antilles-Guyane Valmorin, Vincent Meril, Alex Résumé : Cette thèse à pour objet l'étude théorique et numérique de solutions dans les équations aux dérivées partielles non linéaires de la physique, en particulier en dynamique des fluides. La présence de discontinuités dans les solutions de ces équations complique la compréhension mathématique des phénomènes mis enjeu et leur traitement numérique, notamment en vue de simulations informatiques . Nous étudions ces équations par une méthode de régularisation dans un espace fonctionnel approprié. Lorsque des schémas numériques construits par des méthodes différentes conduisent à des résultats identiques, ceci jusque dans leurs moindres détails, il semble alors naturel de s'interroger dans quelle mesure ces suites de solutions numériques constituent une approximation d'une solution des équations étudiées. Nous construisons des suites de solutions approchées à partir d'un schéma numérique original,stable et suffisamment simple pour démontrer que ses suites constituent une méthode asymptotique de Maslov au sens des distributions en dimension trois d'espèce. La technique de régularisation employée consiste à étendre les variables réelles du problème ne des variables complexes, ce qui nous permet de construire des familles de solutions particulières que l'on ramène au cas réel en faisant tendre un petit paramètre vers O. Les solutions physiques recherchées apparaissent alors comme valeurs au bord de fonction holomorphes. Nous illustrons les résultats obtenus par des applications en cosmologie dans les cadres Newtoniens et relativistes pour des systèmes sans pression, puis avec pression et auto-gravitation, ainsi que pour le système des gaz parfaits. This thesis is devoted to the theoretical and numerical study of singular solutions appearing in nonlinear partial differential complicates the mathematical understanding of the phenomena under concem as well as their numerical treatment, in particular in view of computation. These equations are studied by a regularization method in an appropriate functional space. When completely different numerical methods give the same results up to the smallest details one can reasonably expect that these numerical results suggest the existence of a mathematical solution of theses equations. We construct sequences of approximate solutions from an original numerical scheme, which is stable and simple enough to prove that these sequences constitute a Maslov asymptotic method in three space dimension. The regularization technique in use consits in extending the real variables of the problem into complex ones, which perrnits to construct families of particular equations that we bring back to the real case by letting a small paramater tend to zero. The expected physical solutions appear as boundary values of holomorphie functions . Illustrations are given by applications to cosmology in the Newtorian and re1ativistic settings for pressure1ess fluid dynamics, then in presence of self-gravitation and pressure as weil as for the systemof ideal gases http://www.theses.fr/2011AGUY0478/document | Partager |
Problems of Development of Tourism and Yachting on the Coast of Gdansk Pomerania (Poland) Auteur(s) : A. Wendt, Jan Wiskulski, Tomasz Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : Region Gdansk Pomerania is an excellent geographic area for the development of yachting. Gdansk Bay and the Vistula Lagoon is characterized by very good weather conditions. Numerous advantages of anthropogenic and tourist resorts strengthen the attractiveness of the coast. The marina recently ended in Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia create very good conditions for the development of yachting. The combination of the Gulf of Gdansk by the river network and channels Żuławy of the Great Masurian Lakes promotes the development of yachting in both the Gulf of Gdansk and Masurian Lake region. However, new infrastructure investments, realized with funding from the EU, like ‘Loop Żuławska’ and the new marina, leading to an increase in tourist traffic and threats to existing reserves and landscape parks. Another problem is the lack of regulation of the right on the crossing of the Strait of Baltiysk, leading from the Vistula Lagoon on the Baltic Sea, which is located in the territorial waters of Russia. The concentration of investments in the region of Żuławy contrasts with too little spending on development of tourist infrastructure in the Hel Peninsula. There are large disparities in tourist traffic. Tourism in Hel Peninsula significantly exceeded the absorption of tourism in the region and leads to the degradation of the local environment. In addition, the seasonality of tourism on the coast favours the trend of maximizing profit tourism enterprises. New, designed ditch the Vistula Spit, which connects directly to the Vistula Lagoon from the Baltic Sea, bypassing the Russian territorial waters, can lead to serious ecological changes. La région de Gdansk en Poméranie est une excellente zone géographique pour le développement du yachting. La baie de Gdansk et la lagune de la Vistule se caractérisent par de très bonnes conditions climatiques. Divers avantages anthropiques et stations touristiques renforcent l’attractivité de la côte.Les marinas nouvellement terminées à Gdansk, Sopot et Gdynia, créent de très bonnes conditions pour le développement du yachting. La combinaison du golfe de Gdansk, du réseau fluvial et des canaux Żuławy qui relient les Grands Lacs de Mazuries, favorise le développement du yachting dans le golfe de Gdansk et la région des lacs. Les nouveaux investissements dans les infrastructures, réalisés grâce à des financements de l’Union européenne, tels "Loop Żuławska" et la nouvelle marina, conduisent à une augmentation de l’activité touristique qui menace les réserves existantes et les parcs naturels. L’autre problème est l’absence de réglementation relative au droit de passage dans le détroit de Baltiysk, menant de la lagune de la Vistule, qui est située dans les eaux territoriales de la Russie. Entre la concentration des investissements dans la région de Żuławy et les faibles dépenses pour le développement de l’infrastructure touristique dans la péninsule d’Hel, il existe de grandes disparités dans le trafic touristique. Les infrastructures touristiques de la péninsule d’Hel ne sont pas en mesure d’absorber les flux touristiques de la région et la situation conduit inéluctablement à la dégradation de l’environnement. La situation de la lagune de la Vistule, dont les eaux sont partagées entre la Russie et la Pologne, peut entraîner de graves changements écologiques.

Prevalence and predictive factors for renouncing medical care in poor populations of Cayenne, French Guiana Auteur(s) : Valmy, Larissa Gontier, Barbara Parriault, Marie Claire Van Melle, Astrid Basurko, Célia Pavlovsky, Thomas Grenier, Claire Douine, Maylis Auteurs secondaires : Centre d'Investigation Clinique Antilles-Guyane (CIC - Antilles Guyane) ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) - Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (INSERM) - CHU de Pointe-à-Pitre - Centre Hospitalier de Cayenne Andrée Rosemon - CHU de Fort de France Croix-rouge française Health Regional Agency (ARS) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD BioMed Central Résumé : International audience Background: Access to health care is a global public problem. In French Guiana, there exists social inequalities which are specially marked amongst immigrants who make up a third of the population. Health care inequalities are prevalent. The objective of this study was to determine factors associated with why health care amongst the poor population of Cayenne was renounced.Study design The study was cross sectional. It focused on knowledge, attitudes, practices and beliefs of the population living in poor neighborhoods of the Cayenne area. Methods: Populations coming at the Red Cross mobile screening unit in poor urban areas of Cayenne were surveyed from July 2013 to June 2014. Structured questionnaires consisted of 93 questions. Written informed consent was requested at the beginning of the questionnaire. The predictors for renouncing medical care were determined using logistic regression models and tree analysis. Results: Twenty percent of persons had renounced care. Logistic regression showed that renouncement of health care was negatively associated with having no regular physician Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR)=0.43 (95%CI=0.24-0.79) and positively associated with being embarrassed to ask certain questions AOR=6.81 (95%CI=3.98-11.65) and having been previously refused health care by a doctor AOR=3.08 (95%CI=1.43-6.65) . Tree analysis also showed that three of these variables were linked to renouncement, with feeling shy to ask certain questions as the first branching.Conclusion: Although most people felt it was easy to see a doctor, one in five had renounced health care. The variables identified by the models suggest vulnerable persons generally had previous negative encounters with the health system and felt unwanted or non eligible for healthcare. Health care mediation and welcoming staff may be simple solutions to the above problems which were underscored in our observations.

On the control of ill-posed distributed parameter systems Auteur(s) : Dorville, René Nakoulima, Ousseynou Omrane, Abdennebi Auteurs secondaires : Centre de Recherche en Economie, Gestion, Modélisation et Informatique Appliquée (CEREGMIA) ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) Analyse Optimisation Controle (AOC) ; Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD EDP Sciences Résumé : International audience We show that the so-called low-regret (or least-regret) control by J. L. Lions [8] fits on the control of ill-posed problems. At each time, we give the characterization of the so-called no-regret control by means of singular optimality systems. For the backward heat ill-posed problem, no Slater hypothesis is assumed on the admissible set of controls ${{cal U}_{mbox{ iny ad}}}$. This work is two pieces, and two methods are considered : the regularization method and the null-controllability method. For the first method, a zero order corrector is used, while for the second method, the passage to the limit is easy. The results presented here generalize the works in [2,3] to the no-regret control.

Les zones franches industrielles d’exportation dans la Caraïbe. Les causes économiques de leur émergence Auteur(s) : Buzenot, Laurence Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : Les zones franches sont des espaces de dérogations législative et sociale. Elles sont spécialisées dans des activités manufacturières où dominent majoritairement l’assemblage textile et minoritairement l’électronique et les services. Elles se développent dans la région Caraïbe, au cours des décennies 1980 et 1990, dans un contexte économique favorable. Dans cet article nous nous interrogeons sur les causes économiques de leur émergence. Ces espaces industriels sont difficiles à définir tant les activités présentes sont diverses et évolutives dans le temps. C’est pour cette raison que dans la première partie nous traitons de la complexité de cette notion. Ensuite, nous verrons les causes économiques de leur émergence. Le semi-échec des politiques d’industrialisation par substitution des importations oriente l’industrialisation vers l’extraversion. Les principes libéraux appliqués à Puerto-Rico servent à encadrer les industries exportatrices. Les plans d’ajustement du FMI pour réguler le problème de l’endettement ont servi de catalyseur aux exportations des biens manufacturés. Parallèlement, les accords commerciaux du Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) avec la puissance étasunienne ont encadré leur essor. Enfin, nous montrerons les modalités de leur implantation dans la Caraïbe, modalités qui induisent des différences géographiques entre des îles entièrement franches et celles où les zones franches sont des enclaves économiques. L’étude de ces dernières en République dominicaine permet de mettre en exergue leur expansion spatiale. The free zones are spaces of social and legislative exemptions. They are specialized in manufacturing activities dominated mainly by the textile assembly. They develop in the Caribbean during decades 1980s and 1990s, in a favourable economic environment. In this article we question the economic causes of their emergence. These industrial areas are difficult to define as these activities are diverse and evolving over time. For this reason in the first part we deal with the complexity of the concept. Then we will see the economic causes of their emergence. The semi-failed policies of industrialization by import substitution industrialization oriented toward the extrovert. The IMF adjustment plans to regulate the problem of indebtedness has been a catalyst for exports of manufactured goods. Meanwhile, the trade agreements of the Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) with the U.S.A. supervised their development. Finally, we show how their presence in the Caribbean, conditions that lead to geographical differences between completely free zone islands and those where the free zones are economic enclaves. The recent study in the Dominican Republic will highlight their spatial expansion.

New treatments of density fluctuations and recurrence times for re-estimating Zermelo's paradox Auteur(s) : Michel, Denis Auteurs secondaires : TREC : Transcription, Environment and Cancer ; Institut de recherche, santé, environnement et travail [Rennes] (Irset) ; INSERM - École Nationale de la Santé Publique - Université de Rennes 1 (UR1) - Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) - Structure Fédérative de Recherche en Biologie-Santé de Rennes (Biosit) ; Université de Rennes 1 (UR1) - INSERM - CNRS - INSERM - CNRS - INSERM - École Nationale de la Santé Publique - Université de Rennes 1 (UR1) - Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (UAG) - Structure Fédérative de Recherche en Biologie-Santé de Rennes (Biosit) ; Université de Rennes 1 (UR1) - INSERM - CNRS - INSERM - CNRS Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD Elsevier Résumé : Le titre a été changé Ancien titre: Roles for local crowding and pressure in counteracting density fluctuations at equilibrium International audience What is the probability that all the gas in a box accumulates in the same half of this box? Though amusing, this question underlies the fundamental problem of density fluctuations at equilibrium, which has profound implementations in many physical fields. The currently accepted solutions are derived from the studies of Brownian motion by Smoluchowski, but they are not appropriate for the directly colliding particles of gases. Two alternative theories are proposed here using self-regulatory Bernoulli distributions. A discretization of space is first introduced to develop a mechanism of matter congestion holding for high densities. In a second mechanism valid in ordinary conditions, the influence of local pressure on the location of every particle is examined using classical laws of ideal gases. This approach reveals that a negative feedback results from the reciprocal influences between individual particles and the population of particles, which strongly reduces the probability of atypical microstates. Finally, a thermodynamic quantum of time is defined to compare the recurrence times of improbable macrostates predicted through these different approaches.

The discursive and political use of sustainable development in the Caribbean. ; La mise en discours et en politique du développement durable dans l’espace caraïbe Auteur(s) : Daniel, Justin Auteurs secondaires : LC2S - Laboratoire Caribéen de Sciences Sociales ; Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) - Université des Antilles (Pôle Martinique) ; Université des Antilles (UA) - Université des Antilles (UA) Éditeur(s) : HAL CCSD EDP Sciences Résumé : International audience This paper reports the first outcomes of a research program “Environment and Sustainable Development in the Caribbean space” co-funded by the European Union, the Région Martinique and the Université des Antilles et de la Guyane under the European Union operational programme 2007-2013. Since the middle of the last century, the Caribbean countries, regardless of their great diversity and political fragmentation, are faced with the recurring problem of development. Having explored different paths, they are looking now for new development models. This challenge which becomes obsessive over the decades, is now a major concern: indeed, the Caribbean territories are per se vulnerable and highly exposed to natural risks due to climate change. In addition, this relates to areas where tensions between exploitation and conservation of a rich biodiversity are particularly strong. Based on the promotion of tourism and services as part of an “open regionalism” at the intersection of global and local scales of public action, the current development strategies give rise to a dual approach with, however, rather mixed results: on the one hand, a discursive use of sustainable development, apprehended through its environmental dimension, evidences a new way of looking at the region and a change in the way the region sees itself; on the other hand, a political use of sustainable development through cross-cutting policies, is hindered by the complexity of structures, the multiple levels of action and regulation, and the difficult appropriation of public-policy organization by local communities and people. Cet article rend compte des premiers résultats d’un programme de recherche « Environnement et développement durable dans l’espace caraïbe » cofinancé par l’Union européenne, la région Martinique et l’Université des Antilles et de la Guyane dans le cadre des programmes opérationnels européens 2007-2013. Il montre que les territoires de la Caraïbe, après avoir exploré plusieurs voies en matière de développement, privilégient désormais des stratégies axées sur le tourisme et les services. S’inscrivant dans un « régionalisme ouvert » au croisement des échelles globale et locale d’intervention en matière d’action publique, ces stratégies débouchent sur une double démarche aux résultats contrastés : d’un côté, une mise en discours du développement durable, appréhendé notamment à travers sa dimension environnementale, témoigne d’un changement de regard sur la région et de celle-ci sur elle-même ; de l’autre, une mise en politique du développement durable à travers des dispositifs à caractère transversal, se heurte à la complexité des structures, à la multiplicité des échelles d’intervention et de régulation ainsi qu’à la difficile appropriation desdits dispositifs par les populations locales.
