Résumé : International audience
The formation age of the Siberian cratonic mantle is not well established as yet. Re–Os data on various mantle-derived materials have shown that it contains Archaean components, but the reported Re-depletion ages show a broad variation range (3.4 to 1 Ga) and are commonly ≤ 2 Ga for peridotite xenoliths. We report Hf and Nd isotope data for cpx and garnet separated from nine refractory spinel and garnet peridotite xenoliths from the Udachnaya kimberlite. The cpx from low-opx spinel harzburgites show extremely high εHf values, from + 607 to + 2084, which testify to long-term evolution of these rocks with high Lu/Hf ratios, consistent with their residual origin and near absence of post-melting enrichments in the Lu–Hf system. Such high εHf values are unusual for cpx from other cratonic peridotites and are higher than those reported for depleted cpx in off-cratonic peridotites. The clinopyroxenes from low-opx spinel harzburgites yield Hf model ages from 1.9 to 1.7 Ga while the cpx from high-opx spinel harzburgites yield Hf model ages from 3.0 to 1.9 Ga. When plotted together, they define a Lu/Hf isochron with an age of 1.80 Ga, which we consider as a robust estimate of the formation age (melt extraction event) because it is obtained on residual rocks that show no evidence for HREE and Hf enrichments and because the model ages for three out of four individual samples are similar to each other. The cpx have high εNd of + 94 to + 123, which are inconsistent with their low Sm/NdPM of < 1 and yield no meaningful age estimates. The consistently high, positive εNd in these cpxs can be interpreted in terms of long-term evolution of refractory peridotites with high Sm/Nd, followed by relatively recent LREE enrichments.We infer that a significant part of the lithospheric mantle in the central Siberian craton may have been formed during a major event (or a series of events) at around 1.8 Ga. Older ages reported for the central Siberian craton may refer to less common materials from cratonic or other domains formed in the Archaean that were later incorporated into the cratonic roots. The transition from the “Archaean” to “modern” tectonic regimes in Siberia and possibly elsewhere may have taken place at 1.8–1.9 Ga rather than at ~ 2.5 Ga, i.e. in the second half of the Paleoproterozoic rather than at the Archaean–Proterozoic boundary, at which time the asthenospheric mantle became generally too cold to experience high-degree melting on a large scale. The ~ 1.8 Ga formation age of the Siberian cratonic mantle is coeval with that for a major part of the ancient continental crust in the central Siberian craton. The temporal crust–mantle links may be explained either by the generation of the initial source materials for continental crust in the same melting event that formed the residual peridotites or, alternatively, by subduction and melting of pre-existing proto-lithosphere destabilized by a major mantle upwelling that formed the residual mantle.

Résumé : A travers l'analyse comparée de deux sites archéologiques colombiens : Ciudad Perdida et San Agustín, il s’agit de faire ressortir les enjeux identitaires et territoriaux des processus de patrimonialisation et de mise en tourisme de ressources matérielles, naturelles et immatérielles du pays. En retraçant l'histoire patrimoniale de ces deux sites et leur émergence en tant que destinations touristiques il sera question de repérer les multiples acteurs impliqués dans ces processus : Etats, scientifiques, industrie touristique, populations et autorités locales et peuples indigènes. Cela permettra de comprendre que l'avenir touristique et patrimonial de ces sites engendre une série « d’épreuve de justifications » (Boltanski, Thévenot, 1991) au sein desquelles ces acteurs en tension mobilisent différentes valeurs et principes de justice afin de légitimer leurs positions. Dans cette étude, les logiques de désappropriation, d'appropriation et réappropriation territoriales seront particulièrement analysées afin d'expliquer comment la gestion patrimoniale et touristique des vestiges archéologiques apparaît comme un outil de revendication identitaire s'inscrivant autant dans les dynamiques juridiques des politiques multiculturelles colombiennes que dans l'épistémè postcoloniale de l'Amérique Latine en général.
Through the comparative analysis of two archaeological sites in Colombia: Ciudad Perdida and San Agustín this study aims to reveal the identity and territory issues linked with the material, intangible and natural heritage and the development of tourism. The history of the acknowledgment of heritage and the analysis of the emergence of those sites as touristic destinations allow to identify all actors involved in both processes: State, scientists, touristic industry, local populations and authorities and native peoples. Through this first analysis it is possible to understand that those patrimonial and touristic processes generate a series of “tests of justifications” (Boltanski, Thévenot, 1991) in which several values and principles of justice are mobilised by the different actors in order to legitimate their stances. In this article the logic of disappropriation, appropriation and re-appropriation of territories is highlighted to explain how the touristic and patrimonial management of the archaeological sites appears as a tool of identity claims integrated both in the legal dynamics of Colombian multicultural policies and the postcolonial episteme of Latin America in general.
A través un análisis comparativo sobre dos sitios arqueológicos de Colombia: Ciudad Perdida y San Agustín se propone poner en relieve las cuestiones de la identidad y del territorio a partir de los procesos de patrimonialización y de desarrollo turístico de los recursos materiales, intangibles y naturales del país. Al reconstituir la trayectoria patrimonial de los sitios y sus procesos de surgimiento como destino turístico es posible identificar los diversos actores involucrados en ambos procesos: Estado, científicos, industria turística, población y autoridades locales y pueblos indígenas. Eso permite entender que el futuro patrimonial y turístico de los sitios genera una serie de “pruebas de justificación” (Boltanski, Thévenot, 1991) en que los actores en tensión recurren a distintos valores y principios de justicia con el fin de legitimar sus posiciones. Este artículo subraya las lógicas de desapropiación, apropiación y de re-apropiación territoriales para explicar cómo la gestión patrimonial y turística de los vestigios arqueológicos se revela como una herramienta para las reivindicaciones identitarias que se integra tanto a las dinámicas jurídicas de las políticas multiculturales de Colombia como a la espísteme postcolonial de América latina en general.

Résumé : Aquafarming in Guyana (Macrobrachium Rosenbergii) finds itself confronted today with a serious economic problem linked to a concurrence of factors of differing origins. - The absence of markets (an apparently cyclical phenomenon) has hindered many operations and calls into question the producing sector in its current form (See table 5: stock SICA 1987). But behind this difficulty, other deeper and longer-lasting ones call for questions to be asked. During analysis of the sector, structural blockages appear from the first years of operations, which, combined with the prolonged absence of revenue, accelerates a process of decline (see the spiral of recession in the text). These other factors are: - 1) An environment that hinders the creation of new farms (difficulties and delay of basin construction sites, wavering about the chosen farming techniques, changes while engaged in operations...) - 2) A complete unawareness of the true capabilities of markets and competitors. - 3) An overestimation of possible yields in the first years. - 4) Underestimating cash flow needs and the consequences of taking out a large loan (see appendix 5, corporate earnings). - 5) Difficulty with implementing a solid and sustainable business structure. - 6) A serious and rapid deterioration of relations among the people involved in this production sector caused by a great deal of confusion about the role, attributions and sphere of expertise of each one of them (confusion in particular among IFREMER, France Aquaculture, and Guyane Aquaculture). Taken all together, these factors mean that we must consider today that the solutions proposed in response to the problem of marketing (See appendix 8 on the DDA proposal and appendix 9 on the GEM report), cannot suffice either to revive discontinued farms or to go ahead with planned projects.
(OCR non controlé) L'aquaculture en Guyane (Macrobrachium Rosenbergii) se trouve confrontée aujourd'hui à un grave problème économique lié à la conjonction de facteurs de natures distinctes. - L'absence de débouchés (phénomène en apparence conjoncturel) est venu bloquer bon nombre d'exploitations et remet en cause le secteur productif dans sa forme actuelle (Cf.tableau 5 : stock SICA 1987). Mais derrière cette difficulté, d'autres plus profondes et durables amènent à poser des questions. A l'analyse du secteur, des blocages structurels apparaissent, dès les premières années d'exploitation, qui combinés à l'absence prolongée de recettes, accélèrent un processus de déclin (cf dans le texte la spirale de la récession). Ces autres facteurs sont : - 1 ) Un environnement contraignant pour la création des fermes (difficultés et retard des chantiers de construction de bassins, hésitations sur les techniques d'élevage choisies, modifications en cours d'exploitation...) - 2 ) Une méconnaissance totale des capacités réelles des marchés et des concurrents. - 3 ) Une sur-estimation des rendements possibles les premières années. - 4 ) Une sous estimation des besoins de trésorerie et des conséquences d'un recours à l'emprunt important (cf annexe 5 résultats d'entreprises). - 5 ) Une difficulté à mettre en place une structure professionnelle solide et pérenne. - 6 ) Une grave et rapide dégradation des relations entre les acteurs de ce secteur de production causée par de sérieuses confusions sur le rôle, les attributions et les domaines de compétences de chacun d'eux (confusion notamment entre IFREMER, FRANCE AQUACULTURE, GUYANE AQUACULTURE). L'ensemble de ces facteurs fait que l'on doit considérer aujourd'hui que les solutions proposées en réponse au problème de commercialisation (Cf annexe 8 sur proposition DDA et annexe 9 sur rapport GEM), ne peuvent suffire ni pour relancer les fermes arrêtées ni pour réaliser les projets envisagés). Celles ci ne tiennent pas compte de la dégradation des relations entre les différents partenaires et reposent uniquement sur une intégration accrue des producteurs dans un environnement que pourtant la plupart ont déjà rejeté (ceci est caractéristique de la proposition de Mr FINET, DDA GUYANE ; cf annexe 8). - Il convient de plus de réviser sérieusement les seuils de rentabilité des entreprises en tenant compte d'un prix de revient qui intégre la totalité des charges imputables à ces productions et non plus seulement une partie comme cela a trop souvent été le cas. Le calcul du prix de revient sur la base des données comptables d'une exploitation (cf annexe 5) donne comme résultat la valeur de 90 Frs/Kg si on tient compte d'une estimation des charges imputables à une partie de production non pêchée, stockée en bassin. Si on ne prend pas en compte cette estimation, le prix s'établit au niveau de 130 Frs. Dans les deux cas les prix de vente actuels ne laissent entrevoir un quelconque bénéfice. Ceci résume bien le problème majeur de cette activité. Si on prévoit la remise en activité des fermes aujourd'hui stoppées, on doit prendre en considération que cela va inévitablement accroître leurs charges financières par un recours supplémentaire au crédit. Le prix de revient s'alourdira d'autant. Cette hypothèse n'étant réalisable qu'aprés une confiance retrouvée auprés des banquiers, ce qui en l'état actuel est loin d'être gagné. - C'est l'ensemble de ces contraintes qu'il convient de prendre en compte aujourd'hui si on souhaite tirer un bilan sérieux et objectif sur cette expérience dont les effets escomptés sont loin d'être obtenus (effet sur la balance commerciale déficitaire en crevettes, effet sur le développement de la Guyane...). Ce n'est qu'au terme d'un travail d'analyse technique mais aussi économique qu'un réajustement des prévisions de base pourra être effectué. Mais parallèlement à cette démarche, une re-définition de l'organisation du secteur doit être recherchée. Ceci passe entre autre par une re-définition claire de la place et du rôle de chacun des organismes qui sont amenés à intervenir dans cette activité. Sans cela toute proposition d'action risque d'aboutir à trés court terme à un nouvel échec.

Résumé : International audience
Over the last decades, numerous studies have emphasized the role of serpentinites in the subduction zone geodynamics. Their presence and role in subduction environments are recognized through geophysical, geochemical and field observations of modern and ancient subduction zones and large amounts of geochemical database of serpentinites have been created. Here, we present a review of the geochemistry of serpentinites, based on the compilation of ~ 900 geochemical data of abyssal, mantle wedge and exhumed serpentinites after subduction. The aim was to better understand the geochemical evolution of these rocks during their subduction as well as their impact in the global geochemical cycle. When studying serpentinites, it is essential to determine their protoliths and their geological history before serpentinization. The geochemical data of serpentinites shows little mobility of compatible and rare earth elements (REE) at the scale of hand-specimen during their serpentinization. Thus, REE abundance can be used to identify the protolith for serpentinites, as well as magmatic processes such as melt/rock interactions before serpentinization. In the case of subducted serpentinites, the interpretation of trace element data is difficult due to the enrichments of light REE, independent of the nature of the protolith. We propose that enrichments are probably not related to serpentinization itself, but mostly due to (sedimentary-derived) fluid/rock interactions within the subduction channel after the serpentinization. It is also possible that the enrichment reflects the geochemical signature of the mantle protolith itself which could derive from the less refractory continental lithosphere exhumed at the ocean-continent transition. Additionally, during the last ten years, numerous analyses have been carried out, notably using in situ approaches, to better constrain the behavior of fluid-mobile elements (FME; e.g. B, Li, Cl, As, Sb, U, Th, Sr) incorporated in serpentine phases. The abundance of these elements provides information related to the fluid/rock interactions during serpentinization and the behavior of FME, from their incorporation to their gradual release during subduction. Serpentinites are considered as a reservoir of the FME in subduction zones and their role, notably on arc magma composition, is underestimated presently in the global geochemical cycle.

Description : Anaïs STAMPFLI, doctorante à Université de Grenoble, étudie la transposition effectuée par Roland Monpierre dans le cadre d'un roman graphique (en 2015) de Diab'-la de Joseph Zobel. L'auteur-illustrateur guadeloupéen démontre la force de l'oeuvre de Zobel qui peut se lire sur de multiples supports. Cette transposition ainsi que les judicieux partis pris graphiques de l'illustrateur confèrent une valeur ajoutée au texte de Zobel. Roland Monpierre prend la liberté d'adapter le texte en introduisant par exemple des commentaires humoristiques d'Aimé Césaire. Cette adaptation facilite l'accès au texte : le roman graphique pourrait ainsi devenir un outil pédagogique permettant de faire re-découvrir autrement le parcours émancipateur à portée universelle de Diab'-la.

Résumé : The hydrothermal vent shrimp genus Mirocaris is reviewed. Morphological comparison between the two nominal species in the genus, M. fortunata and M. keldyshi, was made based on the re-examination of the holotype and paratypes of Mirocarisfortunata and the paratypes of M. keldyshi. Samples newly collected from various sites on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge were also examined. The validity of the genus Mirocaris has been confirmed. However, our study has revealed that the supposed morphological characters distinguishing M. fortunata and M. keldyshi do not provide significant taxonomic differences and further comparison failed to detect morphological differences between the two taxa. Thus M. keldyshi is synonymized with M. fortunata, and so there is only one single species in the genus Mirocaris. This supports the suggestion by Shank et al. (1999), based on a molecular study, that the two taxa might be conspecific. A redescription of M. fortunata is provided to better establish the morphology of the species. The clarification led us to improve the morphological descriptions of the caridean species associated with vent or seep environments and to reassess the relationships among Mirocaris and the other shrimp taxa in the superfamily Bresilioidea. The generic diagnosis of Mirocaris is emended. Because a number of presumably apomorphic characters are shared by Mirocaris and other alvinocaridid genera, the genus Mirocaris is now assigned to the family Alvinocarididae. The family Mirocarididae is synonymized with the Alvinocarididae and the diagnosis of this family is emended.
Révision du genre Mirocaris, crevette des sources hydrothermales océaniques, redescription de M. fortunata et réexamen du statut de la famille des Alvinocarididae. Le genre Mirocaris, créé pour des crevettes hydrothermales, est révisé. Une étude morphologique comparative des deux espèces Mirocaris fortunata et M. keldyshi, basée sur le réexamen des holo-types et paratypes et sur l'étude de nombreux échantillons provenant de divers sites hydrothermaux de la dorsale médio-atlantique, a été effectuée. La validité du genre Mirocaris est confirmée. Il apparaît que les caractères qui distinguent M. keldyshi et M.fortunata ne sont pas des critères taxonomiques suffisants et une étude morphologique plus poussée n'a pas révélé de différences morphologiques entre les deux taxa. Ceci est en accord avec l'interprétation de Shank et al. (1999) qui, à la suite d'une étude moléculaire, suggèrent la synonymie des deux espèces. Une redescription détaillée de M. fortunata est donnée et les relations entre Mirocaris et les autres genres de la superfamille des Bresilioidea sont discutées. La diagnose générique de Mirocaris est modifiée. Comme plusieurs caractères apomorphes sont partagés par Mirocaris et les autres genres de la famille des Alvinocarididae, le genre Mirocaris est maintenant affecté à cette famille. La famille des Mirocarididae est mise en synonymie avec celle des Alvinocarididae dont la diagnose est modifiée.

Résumé : Large populations of the living benthic foraminifera Quinqueloculina carinatastriata (Wiesner, 1923) are reported for the first time from intertidal mudflats of the French Atlantic coast (Marennes-Oléron Bay and Ile de Ré). Maximum abundance of living specimens was recorded in early autumn. The species was previously described from the Adriatic and Tyrrhenian Seas (central Mediterranean Sea) and reported from the Eastern Mediterranean and Red Seas, as well as tropical and subtropical regions. A survey of available literature to trace records of the species in muddy shallow habitats along the western coasts of Europe and Africa reveals that the species is unrecorded from the Western Mediterranean Sea and is unknown in the eastern Atlantic Ocean from the Ivory Coast to Denmark, including the British Isles. This supports the hypothesis that the species has been accidentally introduced outside its natural range as a probable result of mariculture trade and/or shipping activities. This is the first report of a successful introduction of a non-indigenous benthic foraminifera to the Atlantic coast of Europe.

Résumé : Homosexuality stands at the center of the last two centuries’ struggle to understand human sexuality; the HIV epidemic among gay men has cemented that in place. And the era of HIV/AIDS finally brought the inherent uncertainties and conflicts in our understanding of human sexuality to the surface and opened the way to re-think sex, identity, and sexual health. I discuss these re-conceptualizations, providing a way around the analytic dichotomies by embracing our embodiment in ecological contexts. In concluding, I suggest how to get out of our “heads” where linguistic binaries dominate our thinking with the superior/inferior evaluations endemic to self-other comparisons. Through our thick, sensuous experience, we can live in the present moment as one embodied person among other interconnected bodies without psychological games of one-up and one-down.
L’homosexualité se trouve au centre de la mobilisation pour comprendre la sexualité humaine, vieille maintenant de deux siècles. L’épidémie du SIDA a endurci cette mobilisation et a remis sur le devant de la scène les incertitudes et les conflits qui entourent notre approche de la sexualité humaine, offrant une nouvelle manière de penser la sexualité, l’identité et la santé sexuelle. J’analyse cette re-conceptualisation dans un contexte écologique qui contourne les dichotomies analytiques. En conclusion, je suggère une manière de nous libérer des binarismes linguistiques qui nous emprisonnent dans le besoin endémique de s’évaluer par rapport aux autres en termes de supériorité et d’infériorité. En reconnaissant la signifiance de notre expérience sensuelle, nous pouvons vivre le moment présent et établir des connexions avec les autres sans sombrer mentalement dans un rapport de supériorité ou d’infériorité.

Résumé : After the January 12, 2010, Haiti earthquake, we deployed a mainly offshore temporary network of seismologic stations around the damaged area. The distribution of the recorded aftershocks, together with morphotectonic observations and mainshock analysis, allow us to constrain a complex fault pattern in the area. Almost all of the aftershocks have a N-S compressive mechanism, and not the expected left-lateral strike-slip mechanism. A first-order slip model of the mainshock shows a N264 degrees E north-dipping plane, with a major left-lateral component and a strong reverse component. As the aftershock distribution is sub-parallel and close to the Enriquillo fault, we assume that although the cause of the catastrophe was not a rupture along the Enriquillo fault, this fault had an important role as a mechanical boundary. The azimuth of the focal planes of the aftershocks are parallel to the north-dipping faults of the Transhaitian Belt, which suggests a triggering of failure on these discontinuities. In the western part, the aftershock distribution reflects the triggering of slip on similar faults, and/or, alternatively, of the south-dipping faults, such the Trois-Baies submarine fault. These observations are in agreement with a model of an oblique collision of an indenter of the oceanic crust of the Southern Peninsula and the sedimentary wedge of the Transhaitian Belt: the rupture occurred on a wrench fault at the rheologic boundary on top of the under-thrusting rigid oceanic block, whereas the aftershocks were the result of the relaxation on the hanging wall along pre-existing discontinuities in the frontal part of the Transhaitian Belt.

Résumé : International audience
The tourist activity, by its international character and as a constantly expanding economic sector emerges as a means of obtaining international recognition being meanwhile an important economic sector of the national economy. In Romania case it appears as an "air breath" for an economic system in crisis and an extremely rolonged period of transition. By the dynamics, human and financial flow which it triggers, through the multiple forms which it covers, through the ability by which some thresholds (i.e. ideological or political) can impose an evolving path, tourism represents an economic sector for the countries in transition which can re-lauch or re-direct the subsequent evolution of a national economy. In ordeur to reach to these parameters a re-definition and a re-discovery of the real tourist potential is required in Romania case.

Résumé : International audience
At Cima di Gagnone, garnet peridotite and chlorite harzburgite lenses within pelitic schists and gneisses correspond to eclogite-facies breakdown products of hydrated peridotites and are suitable for studying dehydration of serpentinized mantle. Thermobarometry and pseudosection modelling yield peak temperatures of 750-850°C and pressures <3 GPa. The minimum temperature recorded by the garnet peridotite corresponds to the maximum conditions experienced by the chlorite harzburgite, suggesting that these rocks recrystallized cofacially at ∼800°C. Alternatively, they might have decoupled during subduction, as achieved in tectonically active plate interface boundaries. The major and rare earth element (REE) variability of the peridotites was mostly acquired during pre-subduction mantle evolution as a result of partial melting and reactive melt flow. The ultramafic suite is also characterized by fluid-mobile element enrichments (B, Pb, As, Sb, Cs, Li, U, Be), which confirm derivation from variably serpentinized protoliths. Similarity in the U, Pb, B, Li and Sr contents of the Gagnone peridotites to present-day oceanic serpentinites suggests that these elements were partly taken up during initial serpentinization by seawater-derived fluids. Positive Be, As and Sb anomalies suggest involvement of fluids equilibrated with crustal (metasedimentary) reservoirs during subsequent subduction metamorphism and peridotite entrainment in (meta)sediments. Fluid-mobile element enrichment characterizes all peak eclogitic minerals, implying that multiple hydration events and element influx pre-dated the eclogite-facies dehydration. Peak anhydrous minerals retain B, Li, As and Sb concentrations exceeding primitive mantle values and may introduce geochemical anomalies into the Earth's mantle. The relatively low contents of large ion lithophile elements and light REE in the Gagnone peridotites with respect to much higher enrichments shown by metasomatized garnet peridotite pods hosted in migmatites (Ulten Zone, Eastern Alps) suggest that the crustal rocks at Gagnone did not experience partial melting. The Gagnone garnet peridotite, despite showing evidence for chlorite dehydration, retains significant amounts of fluid-mobile elements documenting that no partial melting occurred upon chlorite breakdown. We propose that the Gagnone ultramafic rocks represent a prime example of multi-stage peridotite hydration and subsequent dehydration in a plate interface setting.

Résumé : International audience
The New Caledonia ophiolite (Peridotite Nappe) is dominated by mantle lithologies, composed of forearc-related refractory harzburgites and minor lherzolites in both the spinel and plagioclase facies.In this study, a comprehensive geochemical data set (major, trace elements and Sr–Nd isotopes) is used to constrain the mantle evolution of the lherzolites and their relationships with the basalts from the Poya Terrane, which tectonically underlies the mantle rocks. The majority of the lherzolites are low-strain porphyroclastic tectonites. They likely record an asthenospheric origin followed by re-equilibration at lithospheric conditions, as supported by geothermometric estimates (T = 1100–940 °C and 920–890 °C for porphyroclastic and neoblastic spinel-facies assemblages, respectively). Olivine composition (Fo = 88.5–90.0 mol%), spinel Cr# ([molar 100 • Cr/(Cr + Al)] = 13–17) and relatively high amounts (7–8 vol%) of Al2O3- and Na2O-rich clinopyroxene (up to 0.5 and 6.5 wt.%, respectively) indicate a moderately depleted geochemical signature for the spinel lherzolites. Bulk rock and clinopyroxene rare earth elements (REE) patterns display a typical abyssal-type signature, i.e. steeply plunging LREE accompanied by nearly flat HREE to MREE. Clinopyroxene REE compositions of the spinel lherzolites may be reproduced by small amounts of fractional melting of a garnet lherzolite precursor (~ 4%), followed by 4%–5% melting in the spinel peridotite field. The plagioclase lherzolites show melt impregnation microstructures, Cr- and Ti-rich spinels and incompatible trace element enrichments (REE, Ti, Y, and Zr) in bulk rocks and clinopyroxenes. Impregnation modelling for these elements suggests that the plagioclase lherzolites originated from residual spinel lherzolites by entrapment of highly depleted (non-aggregated) MORB melt fractions in the shallow oceanic lithosphere. Nd isotope compositions of the investigated peridotites are consistent with derivation from an asthenospheric mantle source that experienced a recent MORB-producing depletion event. This evolution was most likely accomplished in a spreading ridge. However, geochemical trace element modelling and Nd isotopes do not support a genetic mantle–crust link between the lherzolites and enriched-MOR-type basalts from the Poya Terrane.

Résumé : The brown shrimp Penaeus subtilis growth parameters has been studied by a lot of biologist since the fisheries of the three Guyana and Brazil has been created. The following through of the French Guyana’s fisheries had hallowed us to have an important database about shrimp boat lending. This atabase had permit us to fine the values used for predictive models helped by software like FISAT 2 in this case. This database had permit us to follow the evolution of the growth parameters along the fifteen last years. This study had given us different results which are interesting. First, the L∞ values used by the COPACO workshop (Isaac et al, 1992) are under evaluated and the K values aren’t. in a second time, the K values of the female brown shrimp are decreasing in a significant way since 1989, this case is not the male’s one. At last, we haven’t fond a link between meteorological variation in French Guyana (rainfall, river’s flow, sunshine) or biological data (biomass, density) and the K variations. A ecosystemic model feasibility study had been done for the French Guyana littoral. The data that are existing in the literature aren’t sufficient to build a model of this ecosystem. Future studies will perhaps provide the data that are missing to realize a first model
Les paramètres de croissance de la crevette Penaeus subtilis ont été étudiés par de nombreux auteurs depuis la création de la pêcherie sur le bouclier des Guyanes. Cependant le suivi permanent de cette pêcherie a permis d’avoir une base de données importante sur les débarquements des crevettiers et ainsi de chercher à affiner les estimations utilisées dans les modèles d’évaluation avec l’aide de logiciel prévus à cet effet comme FISAT 2 utilisé ici. Ces données peuvent permettre aussi de suivre l’évolution de ces paramètres au fil des années.Il ressort de cette étude plusieurs résultats intéressants. En premier lieu, les valeurs de L∞utilisées par le groupe de travail de la COPACO (Isaac et al, 1992) sont sous-évaluées et les valeurs de K ne le sont pas forcément. En second lieu, le K des femelles présente une tendance à la diminution sur les quinze dernières années (1989 – 2003), ce qui ne semble pas être le cas des mâles. Enfin, nous ne pouvons rattacher facilement les variations de K enregistrées à aucune donnée météorologique ne concernant que la Guyane (pluviosité, débit des fleuves, insolation), ni à certaines données biologiques (biomasse, densité). La faisabilité d’un modèle écosystémique du littoral a aussi été étudiée. Il en ressort que dans l’état actuel des connaissances sur l’écosystème du littoral guyanais la réalisation d’un modèle n’est pas possible. Mais des campagnes d’études à venir pourraient permettre de recueillir suffisamment de données pour pouvoir dresser un premier modèle.

Résumé : International audience
The equilibrium phase relations of a mafic durbachite (53 wt.% SiO2) from the TA (TM) ebi pluton, representative of the Variscan ultrapotassic magmatism of the Bohemian Massif (338-335 Ma), have been determined as a function of temperature (900-1,100A degrees C), pressure (100-200 MPa), and H2O activity (1.1-6.1 wt.% H2O in the melt). Two oxygen fugacity ranges were investigated: close to the Ni-NiO (NNO) buffer and 2.6 log unit above NNO buffer (a dagger NNO + 2.6). At 1,100A degrees C, olivine is the liquidus phase and co-crystallized with phlogopite and augite at 1,000A degrees C for the whole range of investigated pressure and water content in the melt. At 900A degrees C, the mineral assemblage consists of augite and phlogopite, whereas olivine is not stable. The stability field of both alkali feldspar and plagioclase is restricted to low pressure (100 MPa) at nearly water-saturated conditions (< 3-4 wt.% H2O) and T < 900A degrees C. A comparison between experimental products and natural minerals indicates that mafic durbachites have a near-liquidus assemblage of olivine, augite, Ti-rich phlogopite, apatite and zircon, followed by alkali feldspar and plagioclase, similar to the mineral assemblage of minette magma. Natural amphibole, diopside and orthopyroxene were not reproduced experimentally and probably result from sub-solidus reactions, whereas biotite re-equilibrated at low temperature. The crystallization sequence olivine followed by phlogopite and augite reproduces the sequence inferred in many mica-lamprophyre rocks. The similar fractionation trends observed for durbachites and minettes indicate that mafic durbachites are probably the plutonic equivalents of minettes and that K- and Mg-rich magmas in the Bohemian Massif may have been generated from partial melting of a phlogopite-clinopyroxene-bearing metasomatized peridotite. Experimental melt compositions also suggest that felsic durbachites can be generated by simple fractionation of a more mafic parent and mixing with mantle-derived components at mid crustal pressures.

Résumé : The late Quaternary paleoceanography and paleoenvironment in the Okinawa Trough, East China Sea, have been well reconstructed over the last decade, while in contrast the provenance of terrigenous sediments that have accumulated there remains enigmatic. In this study, rare earth elements (REE) were used to investigate provenance changes in sediments from Core DGKS9604, taken from the middle Okinawa Trough. Discrimination plots based on REE fractionation parameters suggest that the cored sediments have variable provenances over the last 30 ka, with the lower part (ca. 31-8.2 ka) ultimately originating mostly from the Changjiang (Yangtze River) and the upper part (7.1-0 ka) primarily from Taiwan. During the Last Glacial Maximum and early deglacial period, sea level was low and the main stream of the Kuroshio Current was deflected to the east of the Ryukyu Islands. As a result the Changjiang-derived sediments might have dominated sedimentation of the middle Okinawa Trough. However, since about 7 ka the main stream of the Kuroshio Current strengthened in the area of the trough, as sea level approximated the modern position. This caused near-bottom transport of fine-grained sediments from the continental margin to the trough to become weak and instead, Taiwan-derived terrigenous sediments dominated in the middle trough. The changing provenances of terrigenous sediments into the middle Okinawa Trough are closely related to the evolution of oceanic circulation and sea level in the East China Sea. Two tephra layers in the core have distinct REE compositions and correlate well with two volcanic eruptions at 7.6 and 25.8 ka in southern Japan. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Résumé : This work addresses a study of geodynamics in Armenia, a country located in the central part of the zone of continental collision between the Arabian and Eurasian lithosphere plates. The work includes two main parts: study of recent deformations of the lithosphere by means of GPS and detailed paleoseismological and morphometric investigations in the zone of the Artanish-Tskhouk segment of the PSSF. We analyze and compare rates of deformation determined by the GPS data and the rates estimated by the paleoseismological and morphometric studies. The Armenian-French network of GPS observations was installed in Armenia in 1998. Three observation sessions were conducted in 1998, 2000 and 2003. Based on the evidence obtained, a detailed study of the velocity field was conducted to analyze lithosphere deformation in Central and Northern Armenia. Slip rates were estimated for the principal active faults in Armenia. Several field works, including paleoseismological, archaeo-seismological, archaeological, geodetic and morphological studies, had been implemented in the zone of the Artanish-Tskhouk segment of the PSSF in 2003-2005. The fault was mapped in detail; rates of main horizontal and vertical slip along the fault were estimated and re-estimated. Four (4) paleo- and archeo-earthquakes were studied and dated. Eventually, the obtained data allowed us to re-estimate slip rates, maximum possible magnitudes and recurrence intervals of strong earthquakes on the Artanish-Tskhouk segment of the PSSF. A technique enabling estimation of horizontal and vertical displacements along strike-slip faults during paleo-earthquakes by the evidence obtained from paleo-seismological trenching was developed.
Les travaux présentés dans ce mémoire sont consacrés à l'étude de la géodynamique du territoire de l'Arménie qui est situé dans la partie centrale de la zone de collision continentale entre les plaques Arabique et Eurasienne. Le mémoire comprend deux parties principales: 1/ l'étude des déformations actuelles par la géodésie GPS; 2/ l'étude paléosismologique et morphométrique détaillée de la zone du segment d'Artanish-Tskhuk de la faille de Pambak-Sevan-Syunik (PSSF). On présente l'analyse et la comparaison des vitesses de déformations estimées par les données de GPS et par les données paléosismologiques et morphométriques. Le réseau d'observations GPS Arméno - Français a été installé en Arménie en septembre 1998. Trois campagnes de mesure du réseau ont été réalisées en 1998, 2000 et 2003. L'analyse détaillée du champ de vitesse à partir des données GPS a permis d'étudier et de quantifier les déformations actuelles de l'Arménie centrale et septentrionale. On a pu estimer les vitesses des déplacements des failles actives principales du territoire de l'Arménie. Un ensemble de travaux sur le terrain comprenant des recherches paléosismologiques, archéosismologiques, archéologiques, géodésiques, et morphologiques a été réalisé entre 2003 et 2005 dans la zone du segment d'Artanish-Tskhuk de la faille de PSSF. La cartographie détaillée de la faille a été réalisée et l'on a estimé et/ou re-estimés les déplacements horizontaux et verticaux le long de la faille. Quatre paléo- et archéoséismes ont été étudiés et datés. À partir des données obtenues, pour le segment d'Artanish-Tskhuk de la faille de PSSF, on a réévalué les vitesses de déplacements, la magnitude maximale possible, et l'intervalle récurrence des séismes forts. Une méthode d'évaluation des déplacements horizontaux et verticaux a été proposée à partir des logs de tranchées sur les failles de décrochements associées à des paléoséismes.

Résumé : International audience
The western part of the Ronda peridotite massif (Southern Spain) consists mainly of highly foliated spinel-peridotite tectonites and undeformed granular peridotites that are separated by a recrystallization front. The spinel tectonites are interpreted as volumes of ancient subcontinental lithospheric mantle and the granular peridotites as a portion of subcontinental lithospheric mantle that underwent partial melting and pervasive percolation of basaltic melts induced by Cenozoic asthenospheric upwelling. The Re-Os isotopic signature of sulfides from the granular domain and the recrystallization front mostly coincides with that of grains in the spinel tectonites. This indicates that the Re-Os radiometric system in sulfides was highly resistant to partial melting and percolation of melts induced by Cenozoic lithospheric thermal erosion. The Re-Os isotopic systematics of sulfides in the Ronda peridotites thus mostly conserve the geochemical memory of ancient magmatic events in the subcontinental lithospheric mantle. Os model ages record two Proterozoic melting episodes at similar to 1.6 to 1.8 and 1.2-1.4 Ga, respectively. The emplacement of the massif into the subcontinental lithospheric mantle probably coincided with one of these depletion events. A later metasomatic episode caused the precipitation of a new generation of sulfides at similar to 0.7 to 0.9 Ga. These Proterozoic Os model ages are consistent with results obtained for several mantle suites in Central/Western Europe and Northern Africa as well as with the Nd model ages of the continental crust of these regions. This suggests that the events recorded in mantle sulfides of the Ronda peridotites reflect different stages of generation of the continental crust in the ancient Gondwana supercontinent.

Résumé : International audience
This paper shows how the notion of “local site of a question” helps the teacher to get into this question in order to teach it. We discuss the relationship between the description of what has to be deeply known to answer the difficulties or the obstacles which arise for the pupils during the study of a question, and what Shulman, and his successors, model under the name of pedagogical content knowledge. A survey, conducted among current French teachers, shows how they are powerless when facing the difficulties of their pupils and a study of some old teaching books shows how this problem was addressed in former teaching practices. Based on these results, we open the discussion of the training of the teachers.
L’article montre l’usage possible de la notion de « site local d’une question » dans le travail du professeur se préparant à enseigner cette question. On discute à cette occasion les proximités entre la description de ce qu’il y a à savoir profondément, pour répondre aux difficultés ou obstacles que rencontreront les élèves au cours de l’étude d’une question, et ce que Shulman et ses successeurs modélisent sous le terme de « pedagogical content knowledge ». Une enquête auprès de professeurs actuels montre comment ils sont démunis face aux difficultés des élèves, et une enquête dans des ouvrages d’enseignement anciens montre comment le problème soulevé a été traité en pratique par l’enseignement traditionnel. L’article discute alors le problème de la formation que les professeurs seraient en droit d’attendre.

Résumé : International audience
Diagnosis of toxoplasmic encephalitis (TE) in patients with AIDS is not straightforward because clinicians rely initially on an empiric diagnosis based on clinical and radiographic improvement to specific anti-Toxoplasma gondii therapy. There is therefore a need for biological tools to improve the diagnosis of TE, especially in tropical areas where this diagnosis is likely to be underestimated. The use of PCR testing in blood samples for the diagnosis of TE has been limited by its poor sensitivity in the studies conducted in Europe. In tropical South America, the results of PCR sensitivity in blood samples were controversial. Considering that T. gondii strains from tropical South America have substantial genetic and pathogenic differences with those from USA and Europe, it is therefore important to re-evaluate the performance of the PCR assay in blood samples for the diagnosis of TE in AIDS patients from this region. Our results showed that the only interest of PCR would be in the most severe forms of TE with altered consciousness because PCR is more likely to be positive. We also provided important genotyping data on T. gondii strains isolated in human cases of toxoplasmosis in the Caribbean and in South America.

Résumé : International audience
The Tso Morari serpentinites in the Ladakh area, northwest Himalaya, originated from the forearc mantle overlying the northward subducting Neo-Tethys lithosphere and the margin of the Indian continent. The serpentinites are characterized by high concentration of fluid-mobile elements (FME: As, Sb, B, Li, and U) compared to ophiolitic or abyssal serpentinites. The Pb isotopic compositions of serpentinites show influence of the subducted Indian continental lithosphere. Trace element concentrations of antigorite determined in situ with Laser Ablation High Resolution Inductively Coupled Mass Spectrometer (LA-HR-ICP-MS) show high contents of FME including Pb, in contrast to the spatially associated iron oxides. Rare earth elements (REE) and compatible elements, such as Sc and Co, remained immobile during the hydration, allowing the identification of the primary minerals (olivine or orthopyroxene) from which serpentine formed. Serpentinized olivine displays higher Sb and As concentrations (up to 1000 x PM) than serpentinized orthopyroxenes that are enriched in Pb, Cs and Li (2 to up to 10 x PM).;We propose that the observed FME distribution in two types of serpentine reflect the differential incorporation of FME during the downward movement of the serpentinite along the subduction plane. At temperature lower than 400 degrees C, at shallow depths, olivine is preferentially serpentinized and incorporates elements that are fluid soluble at low temperatures, such as Sb and As. Above 400 degrees C, orthopyroxene is hydrated and incorporates Pb, Cs, Li and possibly Ba. Boron and U are incorporated in both types of serpentine suggesting that they are released from slabs at temperatures around 300-400 degrees C. The serpentine acts as a sink for water, but also for FME and transports them to deeper and hotter levels in the mantle, down to the isotherm 600-650 degrees C where dehydration occurs.
