Résumé : Since the beginning of 1980, the Martinique fishermen have suffered a deep crisis. The traditional ways of fishing, based on benthic fish exploitation, have seen the decreasing of their profitability due to the over-fishing of the narrow continental shelf offering few resources. The pelagic fishery had become the professional main source of income. This fishery equally encounter difficulties: denied rights of access in the EEZ of Caribbean islands, expensive costs of exploitation. The disposal of FADs offers new ways to the Martinique fishermen. In 1999, it was decided the disposal of a onetworko of 30 permanent FADs around Martinique. The mooring of these FADs must be followed by legal and economic adapted measures to reach the desired aim: the development of local fishery economy through a sustainable fishing practice. Therefore, the French authorities have decided to make the regional fishermen committee responsible for the management of FADs.This committee is the only one to be entitled to moor and to deliver licences to FADs. This committee, gathering all the fishing industry representatives, has regarding the french law the right of mooring and delivering licences to the FADs access, collecting fishery statistics. These data should fund research to improve the management of the fishery, care and replace FADs. This programas realisation, as well as durability, need adequate financial planning. It has been included in the European commission financing program. This plans success will ensure the increase of the fishermen income, maintain and develop employment.Original Abstract: Apres une periode d'experimentation lancee localement au debut des annees quatre-vingt, les premiers resultats ont ete suffisamment probants pour conduire les professionnels a souhaiter l'implantation de dispositifs de concentration de poissons (dcp) en Martinique ou a les implanter eux-memes pour la capture des dorades coryphenes, des thons noirs, de l'albacore ou du listao. Le colloque international sur la peche thoniere et les dispositifs de concentration de poissons organise du 15 au 19 octobre 1999 en Martinique donne l'occasion de revenir sur le contexte, l'interet et les modalites de developpement de la technique des dcp en Martinique.

Résumé : International audience
A multiproxy analysis of lacustrine sediments cored in Grand-Case Pond at Saint-Martin, north of the Lesser Antilles archipelago, reveals three distinct climatic periods for the last 3700 years. From 3700 to ~2500 yr cal. BP and from 1150 yr cal. BP to the present, carbonate mud deposition occurred in connection with pond lowstands. These periods were also punctuated by severe drought events, marked by gypsum laminae, and hurricane landfalls, leading to marine sand inputs into the pond. The intermediate time interval, from 2500 to 1150 yr cal. BP, is typified by black organic mud deposition, suggesting that hypoxic to anoxic conditions prevailed at the pond bottom. These were probably linked with a perennial pond highstand and reflect more uniform and wetter climatic conditions than today. The carbon isotopic composition of the ostracod Perissocytheridea bisulcata shows that the lowest δ13C values are recorded during the hypoxic periods, as a consequence of bacterial recycling of isotopically depleted organic matter. Such a climatic history agrees closely with that documented from other records in the Caribbean area, such as the Cariaco Basin, central coast of Belize or Barbados. By constrast, discrepancies seem to emerge from the comparison between hurricane activity recorded at Saint-Martin on the one hand and Vieques (Puerto Rico) on the other hand. We explain this apparent contradiction by a balance between two distinct storm paths in response to latitudinal shifts of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Stronger storm activity over the Gulf coast and the inner Caribbean Sea is favoured by a southern position of the ITCZ in connection with dry climatic conditions. Plausible links with the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) are also suggested.

Résumé : International audience
Suriname is the smallest country in South America. However, in regional academic literature, it has been repeatedly considered one of the largest Caribbean territories for many years (Best 1967; Granger 2008). This territory is generally included in the socio-historical group of the three Guianas (Lézy 2000), or the bio-geographical group of the Guiana Plateau. Additionally, Suriname is frequently considered part of the insular Caribbean (Girvan 2005). The latter consideration implies a geographical paradox that is twofold. In fact, Suriname, French Guiana and Guyana are not directly bordered by the Caribbean Sea. Moreover, like Belize, which is also commonly included in the Caribbean island group, Suriname is not an island in the strict sense of the word, i.e. land surrounded by water, based on the restricted definition of the term. Nevertheless, the Caribbean cannot be defined today on the sole basis of a deterministic relationship with the sea bearing the same name. Further, research conducted on insularity increasingly demonstrates the limitations of the physical nature of the island, in favour of feelings of belonging, alienation, etc. (Taglioni 2003).

Résumé : International audience
Pliocene and Pleistocene deposits from Grande-Terre (Guadeloupe archipelago, French Lesser Antilles) provide a remarkable example of an isolated carbonate system built in an active margin setting, with sedimentation both controlled by rapid sea-level changes and tectonic movements. Based on new field, sedimentological and palaeontological analyses, these deposits have been organized into four sedimentary sequences (S1 to S4) separated by three subaerial erosion surfaces (SB0, SB1 and SB2). Sequences S1 and S2 ('Calcaires inférieurs à rhodolithes') deposited during the late Zanclean to early Gelasian (planktonic foraminiferal Zones PL2 to PL5) in low subsidence conditions, on a distally steepened ramp dipping eastward. Red algal-rich deposits, which dominate the western part of Grande-Terre, change to planktonic foraminifer-rich deposits eastward. Vertical movements of tens of metres were responsible for the formation of SB0 and SB1. Sequence S3 ('Formation volcano-sédimentaire', 'Calcaires supérieurs à rhodolithes' and 'Calcaires à Agaricia') was deposited during the late Piacenzian to early Calabrian (Zones PL5 to PT1a) on a distally steepened, red algal-dominated ramp that changes upward into a homoclinal, coral-dominated ramp. Deposition of Sequence S3 occurred during a eustatic cycle in quiet tectonic conditions. Its uppermost boundary, the major erosion surface SB2, is related to the Cala1 eustatic sea-level fall. Finally, Sequence S4 ('Calcaires à Acropora') probably formed during the Calabrian, developing as a coral-dominated platform during a eustatic cycle in quiet tectonic conditions. The final emergence of the island could then have occurred in late Calabrian times.

Résumé : International audience
Cruise tourism is a sector that is rapidly expanding (16 million passengers in 2011). Today, cruising remains an essentially American affair, dominated by North American clients whose preferred destination is the Caribbean Sea. American cruise circuits continue to extend and diversify from the Panama Canal to the edge of Alaska. Meanwhile, cruises strengthen their position on the Mediterranean and Baltic Seas and has launched in East Asia from shores of the South China Sea to major rivers. Between continuity and recomposition, the cruise industry faces several challenges such as the limits of overcapacity (more than 6,000 passengers on board), its relationship with the host territories (ports of call), and the renewal of the “cruise” products.
Le tourisme de croisière est un secteur d’activité en pleine expansion (16 millions de passagers en 2011). De nos jours, la croisière reste encore une affaire essentiellement américaine, dominée par les clientèles nord-américaines, et dont le champ spatial privilégié est la mer des Caraïbes. Les circuits américains de la croisière s’étendent et se diversifient, du canal du Panama aux confins de l’Alaska. Parallèlement, la croisière conforte sa position sur les mers méditerranéenne et baltique et se déploie en Asie orientale, des rivages de la mer de Chine aux grands fleuves. Entre permanences et recompositions, l’industrie de la croisière doit relever plusieurs défis tels que les limites du gigantisme (plus de 6 000 passagers à bord), ses relations avec les territoires d’accueil (les ports d’escales), le renouvellement du produit « croisière ».

Description : Pour la formalisation du lexique et de la grammaire de dialectes étroitement apparentés, il peut se révéler utile de factoriser une partie du travail de modélisation. Les soussystèmes linguistiques isomorphes dans les différents dialectes peuvent alors faire l'objet d'une description commune, les différences étant spécifiées par ailleurs. Cette démarche aboutit à un modèle de grammaire à couches : le noyau est commun à la famille de dialectes, et une couche superficielle détermine les caractéristiques de chacun. Nous appliquons ce procédé à la famille des langues créoles à base lexicale française de l'aire américano-caraïbe.

Résumé : During the years 1972-1993, kepone a persistent pesticide has been used in the banana fields of the French West Indies (Martinique and Guadeloupe) to content a weevil. A slow desorption of the molecule from soil induces its transfer to the sea through the rivers from leaching and erosion. This study intended to take stock on the contamination by kepone of the fishery species around the islands fifteen years after the kepone ban. Furthermore other chemical pollutants were sought in fish and shellfish around the Martinique island. The results confirmed persistence of marine fauna contamination by kepone, mainly in the alluvium areas in front of polluted rivers. They shown also that this contamination may spread more widely but with fast decreasing through the marine food webs. For the other pollutants sought, the results were in general lower than the statutory values. Within these substances, only mercury gave a signal close to the prescribed threshold for top predator samples. Finally, on the whole the observed systems appeared preserved from human chemical pollutants, apart from kepone.
Pendant les années 1972-1993 un pesticide persistant, la chlordécone, a été utilisé dans les bananeraies des Antilles françaises (Martinique et Guadeloupe) pour lutter contre un charançon. Une désorption lente de la molécule fixée dans les sols conduit à son transfert progressif dans les milieux aquatiques puis vers le domaine marin au gré du lessivage et de l'érosion des sols contaminés. La présente étude visait à faire le point sur la contamination de la faune halieutique côtière des Antilles françaises quinze ans après l'interdiction d'usage de la molécule. En parallèle, une recherche systématique d'autres polluants chimiques a été effectuée sur des poissons et des crustacés ainsi que dans des sédiments autour de la Martinique. Les résultats confirment la persistance d'une contamination de la faune par la chlordécone, particulièrement dans les zones alluvionnaires des cours d'eau contaminés. Ils montrent également que cette contamination diffuse plus largement en s'atténuant, à travers les réseaux trophiques marins. Parmi les autres substances recherchées, les résultats dans les espèces d'intérêt halieutique se situent en général sous les concentrations maximales admissibles fixées par la réglementation. Parmi ces molécules, seul le mercure donne un signal de contamination proche de ce seuil chez des grands prédateurs. Ce constat souligne l'état de préservation des milieux observés vis-à-vis de la contamination chimique environnementale, hormis bien évidemment le cas de la chlordécone.

Description : The Creole pig has always been part of the rural and suburban landscape of Martinique. Currently, this breed is not integrated into a research and conservation program. The Natural Park of Martinique Region (PNRM) has the objective to maintain and valorize the genetic heritage of Martinique?s Creole pig and develop a niche business. Based on PNRM knowledge, some Creole pigs live freely in the mountains in the North, in the South coast and in a few disparate traditional breeders located in the countryside. It is essential to carry out an inventory of the local pig population to propose a scheme for conservation and economic development. In order to favour the appropriation of the Creole pig niche, the PNRM, as a decision maker, acts in a systemic and holistic way by considering the whole Martinican territory and the pig sub-sector: producers involved in the COOPMAR pig farmers? cooperative, researchers of INRA (FWI), the food chain and at least (in a second phase) the consumers and the Martinican society. First of all, the pig farmers are involved (private family farms and specialised pig producers). Researchers and technicians from PNRM and INRA- URZ (Animal production research unit) and INRA-PTEA (Tropical platform in animal experimentation) are performing experimental studies both in controlled conditions and in farms, in order to: i) determine phenotypic and genetic characteristics of Martinique?s Creole pigs in comparison with other pig breeds from the Caribbean area; ii) help at designing genetic management to maintain the population and avoiding inbreeding; iii) help at defining feeding management by a) establishing, at the whole territorial food chain, an inventory of co or by-products available for pig feeding; b) implementing experimental studies in technology for conservation; c) implementing feeding and growing experiments and finally iv) help at defining eco-friendly production systems a) aiming at generate an adequate revenue and b) focusing on ecosystem services such as meat quality, socio-cultural services and circular economy. Le porc créole a toujours fait partie du paysage rural et suburbain de la Martinique. Actuellement, cette race n'est pas intégrée dans un programme de recherches et de conservation. Le parc naturel de la région de la Martinique (PNRM) a l'objectif pour maintenir et valoriser l'héritage génétique du porc créole de la Martinique et pour développer des créneaux. Basé sur la connaissance de PNRM, quelques porcs créoles vivent librement dans les montagnes dans le nord, dans la côte sud et chez quelques éleveurs traditionnels disparates situés dans la campagne. Il est essentiel d'effectuer un inventaire de la population locale de porc pour proposer un plan pour la conservation et le développement économique. Afin de favoriser l'appropriation du créneau créole de porc, le PNRM, comme décideur, agit d'une manière systémique et holistique en considérant tout le territoire de la Martinique et sous-secteur de porc : producteurs impliqués dans la coopérative d'agriculteurs de porc de COOPMAR, les chercheurs d'AICN (FWI), la chaîne alimentaire et au moins (dans une deuxième phase) les consommateurs et la société Martiniquaise. Tout d'abord, les agriculteurs de porc sont impliqués (les fermes privées de famille et les producteurs de porc spécialisés). Les chercheurs et les techniciens de PNRM et AICN URZ (unité de recherches de production animale) et INRA-PTEA (plate-forme tropicale chez l'expérimentation animale) réalisent des études expérimentales dans des conditions commandées et dans les fermes : i) déterminent des caractéristiques phénotypiques et génétiques des porcs créoles de la Martinique en comparaison d'autres races de porc à partir du secteur des Caraïbes ; ii) aide à concevoir la gestion génétique pour maintenir la population et à éviter l'endogamie ; iii) aide à définir la gestion de alimentation a) en établissant, à la chaîne alimentaire territoriale de totalité, à un inventaire de Co ou aux sous-produits disponibles pour l'alimentation de porc ; b) mise en oeuvre des études expérimentales en technologie pour la conservation ; c) mettant en application des expériences de alimentation et croissantes et finalement iv) aide à définir viser qui respecte l'environnement des systèmes de production a) produisent de à revenu approprié et b) se concentrant sur des services d'écosystème tels que la qualité de viande, des services socioculturels et l'économie circulaire.

Résumé : International audience
L'histoire des relations entre les Français et les Caraïbes s'inscrit dans ce cadre conceptuel construit par les Espagnols aux premiers moments du contact. Cependant, contrairement à ces derniers qui ne feront toujours qu'y passer, les autres nations européennes, au premier rang desquelles les royaumes de France et d'Angleterre, vont entreprendre la colonisation des Petites Antilles et ainsi établir un contact certes plus tardif mais surtout beaucoup plus étroits avec les Caraïbes. Or, dans ce jeu à trois auquel vont se livrer pendant plus de deux siècles, Anglais, Français et Caraïbes, les deux derniers acteurs semblent avoir développé une proximité dont pour l'essentiel les Anglais ont été exclus . Quelles en ont été les manifestations ? Et, surtout, quels en ont été les mécanismes ? Plutôt qu'un recours certes aisé mais ô combien dangereux à la notion difficilement objectivable de "l'esprit d'une nation", une approche chronologique fine des relations franco-caraïbes nous semble être la seule voie possible pour tenter de répondre à ces questions. Elle devrait nous permettre de dégager le caractère spécifique de ce contact et d'en cerner certaines des raisons.
