Résumé : International audience
Develop tourism as a tool in the fight against poverty requires first to agree on the meaning of the word poverty and to clarify the political intentions of the project. Reflection on the reduction of poverty through the tourism can be synthesized in three steps: first, the beneficial effects of runoff from tourist revenues in host societies, then the collateral damage resulting from tourism and, finally, to define the conditions necessary to integrate positively tourism project in the host territories.In the end, it is indispensable to develop a proactive policy, because the poorest will not benefit from famous income runoff. Taking into account complex and contradictory impact of international tourism (including inflation, revenue leakage, deconstruction accelerated of local societies), it is necessary to include it in a sustained and coherent territorial project by local communities to identify real benefits.
Concevoir le tourisme comme un outil de lutte contre la pauvreté nécessite en premier lieu de s’entendre sur le sens du mot pauvreté et de clarifier les intentions politiques d’un tel projet. La réflexion sur la réduction de la pauvreté grâce au tourisme peut être synthétisée en trois temps : tout d’abord, les effets bénéfiques du ruissellement des revenus touristiques dans les sociétés d’accueil, ensuite les dommages collatéraux qui résultent du tourisme et, finalement, définir les conditions nécessaires pour intégrer favorablement le projet touristique dans les territoires hôtes. Au final, il apparaît indispensable de développer une politique volontariste, car le fameux ruissellement de revenus ne va pas naturellement profiter aux plus démunis. Compte tenu des impacts complexes et contradictoires du tourisme international (notamment en matière d’inflation, de fuites des revenus, de déstructuration accélérée des sociétés locales), il faut l’inscrire dans un projet d’un territorial cohérent et soutenu par les communautés locales afin de dégager de réels bénéfices.

Résumé : À travers les expositions universelles récentes et passées et plus particulièrement les expositions de Milan 2015 et de Port-au-Prince 1949, nous rappelons que cette pratique touristique du voyage d’agrément dans une grande ville remonte au xixe siècle, elle accompagne les origines de notre tourisme moderne, tout en devenant un instrument de géopolitique et de marketing touristique de première importance pour les villes et les pays hôtes. Les expositions peuvent être considérées comme un levier urbanistique, mais aussi un moyen de faire voyager et de comprendre notre monde à travers un système de représentation des identités locales et mondiales proposant toujours une mise en valeur de la découverte scientifique et de l’expérience culturelle à travers les pavillons nationaux. Ces manifestations géantes reposent sur une mise en scène et en récit à partir d’un thème universel questionnant généralement le concept du développement durable et de l’attractivité touristique renouvelée de la destination. Notre analyse porte sur la plus récente des expositions universelles et une exposition oubliée appartenant à l’aire culturelle des caraïbes permettant de dégager trois dynamiques associant le tourisme de méga-événement et l’utopie des voyages initiatiques, à savoir : les expositions universelles se réinventent et retrouvent un certain succès de fréquentation impliquant une redéfinition des champs et des usages d’une utopie contrariée. Faire voyager est un acte à la fois scénographique et symbolique à travers le pavillon impliquant des artifices et des déclinaisons de plus en plus numériques, la quête de cette pratique durable du voyage se confronte à son héritage et à son souvenir à différentes échelles et temporalités.  
Through the recent and past universal exhibitions and more particularly the world’s fair of Milan 2015 and Port-au-Prince 1949, we recall that this tourist practice of the pleasure trip in a large city dates back to the xixth century, it accompanies the origins of Our modern tourism, while becoming an instrument of geopolitics and tourist marketing of prime importance to cities and host countries. Exhibitions can be seen as an urban lever, but also a way to make travel and understand our world through a system of representation of local and global identities that always emphasizes scientific discovery and cultural experience through the national pavilion. These giant events are based on a staging and narrative based on a universal theme generally questioning the concept of sustainable development and the renewed attractiveness of the destination. Our analysis focuses on the most recent of the universal exhibitions and a forgotten exhibition belonging to the cultural area of the Caribbean, which reveals three dynamics associating mega-event tourism with the utopia of initiatory journeys, namely: reinvent and regain a certain success of frequentation implying a redefinition of the fields and uses of a disrupted utopia; to make travel is an act both scenographic and symbolic through the pavilion involving artifices and more and more digital declensions, the quest for this sustainable practice of travel is confronted with its heritage and its memory at different scales and temporalities.
A través de las exposiciones universales recientes y pasados y, especialmente, la Feria de Milán en 2015 y Puerto Príncipe en 1949, recordamos que esta práctica de turismo de viaje de placer a una gran ciudad se remonta al siglo xix, que acompaña a los orígenes de turismo moderno, mientras que convertirse en un instrumento geopolítico y comercialización del turismo de las principales ciudades y países anfitriones. Las exposiciones pueden considerarse una palanca urbana, sino también una manera de viajar y entender nuestro mundo a través de un sistema de representación de las identidades locales y globales que todavía ofrece el desarrollo de los descubrimientos científicos y la experiencia cultural a través pabellones nacionales. Estas manifestaciones gigantes basados en una puesta en escena y la narrativa de un tema universal en general, cuestionando el concepto de desarrollo sostenible y renovada atractivos turísticos del destino. Nuestro análisis se centra en las últimas exposiciones universales y una exposición olvidado que pertenecen a la zona cultural del Caribe para identificar tres dinámico entre el turismo mega-evento y la utopía de los viajes iniciáticos, a saber: las exposiciones universales reinventar y encontrar un cierto éxito de asistencia que implica una redefinición de campos y utiliza una utopía alterada, para viajar es un acto tanto teatral y simbólico a través del pabellón y declinaciones cada vez más digitales, las la búsqueda de este viaje práctica sostenible se enfrenta a su artificialidad y su memoria en diferentes escalas y marcos de tiempo.

Résumé : International audience
The 2 465 177 bp genome of Sulfolobus islandicus LAL14/1, host of the model rudivirus SIRV2, was sequenced. Exhaustive comparative genomic analysis of S. islandicus LAL14/1 and the nine other completely sequenced S. islandicus strains isolated from Iceland, Russia and USA revealed a highly syntenic common core genome of approximately 2 Mb and a long hyperplastic region containing most of the strain-specific genes. In LAL14/1, the latter region is enriched in insertion sequences, CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats), glycosyl transferase genes, toxin-antitoxin genes and MITE (miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements). The tRNA genes of LAL14/1 are preferential targets for the integration of mobile elements but clusters of atypical genes (CAG) are also integrated elsewhere in the genome. LAL14/1 carries five CRISPR loci with 10 per cent of spacers matching perfectly or imperfectly the genomes of archaeal viruses and plasmids found in the Icelandic hot springs. Strikingly, the CRISPR_2 region of LAL14/1 carries an unusually long 1.9 kb spacer interspersed between two repeat regions and displays a high similarity to pING1-like conjugative plasmids. Finally, we have developed a genetic system for S. islandicus LAL14/1 and created ΔpyrEF and ΔCRISPR_1 mutants using double cross-over and pop-in/pop-out approaches, respectively. Thus, LAL14/1 is a promising model to study virus-host interactions and the CRISPR/Cas defence mechanism in Archaea.

Résumé : International audience
This study investigates three-dimensional flow modes of orogenic plateaus by means of physical modeling. Experiments consist of shortening two contiguous lithospheres of contrasting strength, one being a weak plateau-type lithosphere and the other a strong craton-type lithosphere. The lateral boundaries are either totally confined or allow escape toward a lateral foreland on one side. Two synconvergence flow regimes are distinguished, which are governed by the balance between the gravity potential and the strength of the plateau crust and the resistance of its lateral foreland. The first regime implies transversal (orogen-normal) injection of plateau lower crust into the collision zone as a result of confinement of the plateau by an increasingly stiffer lateral boundary. As a precursor mechanism to channel flow, transversal injection responds to downward thickening of the plateau crust that is forcedly extruded into the orogenic wedge. The second regime is that of collapse-driven lateral escape of the plateau. This regime is established after a threshold is attained in the interplate coupling in the collision zone, which allows the gravity potential of the plateau to overcome the resistance of its lateral boundary. Under the collapse-driven escape regime (orogen parallel), such as that governing Tibet during the last 13 Ma, most of the convergence in the plateau and the top and rear of the collisional wedge is transformed into lateral flow and extension.

Résumé : International audience
We investigate flexural geometry and rheology of the India plate beneath the eastern Himalaya from a new gravity data set acquired in Bhutan. Compared to the well‒studied Nepal Himalaya, the obtained Bouguer anomaly profiles across the range show shorter wavelength flexure of the lithosphere with a narrower and shallower foreland basin. This new data set and seismic Moho constraints are interpreted together in terms of lithospheric flexure using a 2‒D thermomechanical model. Our results suggest that the strongest layer of the continental lithosphere beneath Bhutan is the upper mantle, as it is beneath Nepal. The observed west‒to‒east decrease in flexural wavelength is associated with weakening mantle rheology. The simulations show that this decrease can be related to ductile mantle behavior: either hydrated wet dunite or dry and hot olivine rheology. Both models display decoupled lithospheric layers leading to an eastward decrease of flexural rigidity from ∼1024 to ∼5*1022 N m in Nepal and Bhutan, respectively.

Résumé : International audience
The frequently observed parallelism between rifts and the pre­ existing orogenic fabric of continents suggests that the inherited tectonic fabric of the lithosphere influences the rupture of continents. We propose that the existence of a pervasive fabric in the lithospheric mantle induces an anisotropie strength in the lithosphere, that guides the propagation of continental rifts. Subcrustal mantle mechanical anisotropy is supported by (i) the anisotropie strength of olivine, (ii) an ubiquitous tectonic fabric in exposed mantle rocks, and (iii) measurements of seismic and electrical anisotropy. During major episodes of continent Rifting parallel to orogenic belts Ocean-opening through rifting and continent break-up is frequently related to the occurrence ofhotspots. There is, howevcr, a discrepancy between hot­ spots acting as pin point sources of heat and the linear extent of rifts over thou­ sands ofkilometres. Moreover rifts tend to parallel pre-existing orogenic fab­

Résumé : Le fluide chaud produit par les forages de la centrale géothermique de Bouillante (Guadeloupe) est enrichi en espèces dissoutes telles que la silice qui peuvent précipiter sous forme de dépôts solides lors de son refroidissement et gêner fortement la production électrique. L’un des principaux objectifs de ce travail de thèse a donc été d’améliorer l’état des connaissances sur les conditions physiques, chimiques et cinétiques de la précipitation de la silice amorphe à Bouillante. Après une étude des caractéristiques physico-chimiques des fluides et des dépôts associés au champ de Bouillante, des expériences sur la cinétique de précipitation de la silice, sur site, pour une large gamme de température (25 - 90°C) et de pH (4 - 12) ont été menées et analysées en détail.Pour l’ensemble de ces expériences, seule la polymérisation (réversible) de la silice dissoute, sous forme de suspensions colloïdales très stables en solution, a été observée. La modélisation des données expérimentales de cinétique montre que la vitesse de polymérisation de la silice suit une loi d’ordre 2 vis-à-vis de la silice dissoute jusqu’à l’équilibre en accord avec une dimérisation de la silice. Par contre, durant l’étape initiale de la réaction, une loi d’ordre 4 semble mieux adaptée, suggérant des réactions de polymérisation plus complexes avec formation de tétramères. La température a un effet limité sur la cinétique de polymérisation de la silice comparé à l’effet du pH qui est beaucoup plus important. L’énergie d’activation de la réaction globale est de 41 - 54 kJ pour des pH compris entre 5 et 8.La caractérisation de la silice précipitée a mis en évidence des différences notables entre la structure poreuse de la silice solide prélevée sur les installations de surface et celle de la silice colloïdale obtenue par polymérisation lors des expériences de cinétique, ce qui semble indiquer que des mécanismes différents interviennent dans ces deux contextes de précipitation de la silice dissoute.Le deuxième objectif de cette thèse était d’évaluer la possibilité de valoriser la silice extraite de l’eau géothermale de Bouillante dans un procédé de traitement des eaux naturelles par adsorption. Pour cela, les propriétés d’adsorption de la silice géothermale brute et fonctionnalisée par le poly(ethylèneimine) (ou PEI) ont été étudiées pour deux polluants : un colorant, le bleu de méthylène et un métal lourd, le plomb. Les résultats obtenus montrent que la silice brute possède une grande capacité d’adsorption vis-à-vis du bleu de méthylène. En outre, la fonctionnalisation de la silice par le PEI permet d’améliorer sa capacité d’adsorption vis-à-vis du plomb en solution, en accord avec un modèle cinétique du pseudo-second ordre suggérant une chimisorption. Le modèle d’isotherme de Redlich-Peterson est également en très bon accord avec les données expérimentales.
The hot geothermal fluid produced by the geothermal power plant of Bouillante (Guadeloupe) contains various dissolved components such as silica that can precipitate as solid deposits during their cooling and cause serious problems on the electricity generation. One of the aim of this study is to improve the understanding on the physical, chemical and kinetics conditions of the amorphous silica precipitation in the Bouillante geothermal field. After a study on the physical and chemical characteristics of the Bouillante fluids and deposits which can form during their exploitation, experiments on the kinetics of silica precipitation, on site, under a large range of temperature (25 – 90°C) and pH (4 – 12) have been carried out and analyzed in detail.During on site kinetics experimentations only dissolved silica polymerization (reversible) as colloidal gel, very stable in solution, was observed. Modeling of the experimental data showed that the kinetics polymerization is characterized by a 2-order kinetic law relative to dissolved silica until the equilibrium that is consistent with silica dimerization. On the other side, the initial stage of the reaction is better characterized by a 4-order kinetic law that suggested more complex polymerization reactions with tetramers formation.Temperature has a little effect on the polymerization kinetics compared with the pH which has an effect more important. The activation energy of silica precipitation calculated between 25 and 90°C, is about 41 - 54 kJ for pH ranging to 5 - 8.The characterization of the silica precipitate reveals significant differences in the porous structure of the silica collected on the surface installations and the one obtained from kinetic experiments that suggests different precipitation mechanisms. The second objective of this thesis was to evaluate the possibility to promote geothermal silica for the treatment of natural waters containing contaminants by adsorption. Adsorption properties of the untreated and functionalized by poly(ethylèneimine) (ou PEI) geothermal silica have been investigated for two pollutants: a colorant, the methylene blue and a heavy metal, the lead.Results showed that untreated silica has a great adsorption capacity concerning the methylene blue. Besides, silica functionalization by the PEI allows improving the adsorption capacity for lead in solution. The adsorption kinetics curves followed a pseudo-second order model consistent with a chimisorption. The isotherm model of Redlich-Peterson fitted well the experimental data.

Résumé : International audience
New estimates of trench migration rates allow us to address the dynamics of trench migration and back-arc strain. We show that trench migration is primarily controlled by the subducting plate velocity V-sub, which largely depends on its age at the trench. Using the hot and weak arc to back-arc region as a strain sensor, we define neutral arcs characterized by the absence of significant strain, meaning places where the forces (slab pull, bending, and anchoring) almost balance along the interface between the plates. We show that neutral subduction zones satisfy the kinematic relation between trench and subducting plate absolute motions: V-t = 0.5V(sub) - 2.3 (in cm a(-1)) in the HS3 reference frame. Deformation occurs when the velocity combination deviates from kinematic equilibrium. Balancing the torque components of the forces acting at the trench indicates that stiff (old) subducting plates facilitate trench advance by resisting bending.

Résumé : International audience
We tested whether the silicone swim caps (SC) worn by young swimmers in a tropical climate negatively influence aerobic performance. Nine trained pre-adolescents [11.8 (± 0.8) years] swam randomized 800-m trials (water: 32.9°C, outdoors: shade, 29.2 ± 0.2 °C, 74 ± 0.3 % rh) with a SC or a nude head (NH). Performance times and heart rate (HR) were monitored continuously. Rectal temperature (T rec) was measured before and after trials. The rating of perceived exertion (RPE) was assessed. Stroke frequency (SF), stroke length (SL) and stroke index (SI) were measured every 50-m. The SC trial was significantly longer than NH (799 ± 16 and 781 ± 16 seconds, respectively). Mean delta T rec was significantly greater in SC (0.2 ± 0.1°C vs.-0.1 ± 0.1°C in SC vs. NH), mean SI was significantly different in SC versus NH (1.83 ± 0.07 vs 1.73 ± 0.06); but RPE and mean HR, SF and SL showed no change. We conclude that a silicone swim cap worn in tropical environment significantly decreased 800-m crawl performance without affecting HR or RPE. Silicone swim caps worn by young swimmers in a tropical environment may also have negative effects on training capacity.

Résumé : International audience
An increasing number of field examples in mountain belts show that the formation of passive margins during extreme continent thinning may occur under conditions of high to very high thermal gradient beneath a thin cover of syn-rift sediments. Orogenic belts resulting from the tectonic inversion of distal margins and regions of exhumed continental mantle may exhibit high-temperature, low-pressure (HT-LP) metamorphism and coeval syn-extensional, ductile deformation. Recent studies have shown that the northern flank of the Pyrenean belt, especially the North Pyrenean Zone, is one of the best examples of such inverted hot, passive margin. In this study, we provide a map of HT-LP metamorphism based on a data set of more than 100 peak-temperature estimates obtained using Raman spectroscopy of the carbona-ceous material (RSCM). This data set is completed by previous PT (pressure and temperature) estimates based on mineral assemblages, and new 40 Ar– 39 Ar (amphibole, micas) and U–Pb (titanite) ages from metamorphic and magmatic rocks of the North Pyrenean Zone. The implications on the geological evolution of the Cretaceous Pyrenean paleomar-gins are discussed. Ages range mainly from 110 to 90 Ma, and no westward or eastward propagation of the metamor-phism and magmatism can be clearly identified. In contrast, the new data reveal a progressive propagation of the thermal anomaly from the base to the surface of the continental crust. Focusing on the key localities of the Mauléon basin, Arguenos–Moncaup, Lherz, Boucheville and the Bas-Agly, we analyze the thermal conditions prevailing during the Cre-taceous crustal thinning. The results are synthetized into a series of three regional thematic maps and into two detailed maps of the Arguenos–Moncaup and Lherz areas. The results indicate a first-order control of the thermal gradient by the intensity of crustal thinning. The highest grades of metamor-phism are intimately associated with the areas where subcon-tinental mantle rocks have been unroofed or exhumed.

Résumé : L’élevage des crevettes pénéides a connu un développement spectaculaire à l’échelle mondiale depuis les années soixante-dix, en particulier grâce à la maîtrise de l’ensemble du cycle biologique en captivité de plusieurs espèces d’intérêt aquacole (Aquacop, 1979). Elle a en effet permis de s’affranchir de l’approvisionnement aléatoire en juvéniles de pêche et en géniteurs sauvages, et par voie de conséquence de domestiquer ces espèces, c'est-à-dire de les sélectionner spontanément pour de meilleures aptitudes à l’élevage. Cette évolution est similaire à celle de filières piscicoles. Cependant les pathologies infectieuses représentent un frein important au développement ultérieur de ces activités. De manière générale, une pathologie infectieuse est la conséquence d’une rupture d’équilibre entre un hôte, son environnement et un ou plusieurs pathogènes (Lightner & Redman, 1998). Toute tentative de lutte contre une pathologie nécessite une meilleure connaissance de ces 3 compartiments ainsi que leurs interactions. Le présent rapport vise à synthétiser les informations scientifiques essentielles utiles à la mise au point de stratégies de lutte contre ces pathologies en pénéiculture. Un premier point sur les pathogènes sera développé avant d’évoquer les principaux descripteurs de la santé de la crevette. Enfin, les différentes possibilités de gestion des pathologies en crevetticulture, dont l’une est la sélection génétique, seront passées en revue.

Résumé : International audience
Background: Everyone is subject to environmental exposures from various sources, with negative health impacts (air, water and soil contamination, noise...) or with positive effects (e.g. green space). Studies considering such complex environmental settings in a global manner are rare.Aims: We propose to use data mining techniques to create a composite exposure index with a data-driven approach, in view to assess the environmental burden experienced by populations. We illustrate this approach on a large French metropolitan area.Methods: The study was carried out in the Great Lyon area (France, 1,260,348 inhabitants in 2007, 527 km²) at the census block group (BG) scale. Indicators on NO2 annual concentrations, noise levels, proximity to green spaces and to industrial plants, and road traffic were synthetized using Multiple Factor Analysis (MFA), which allows to explore the relations between exposures and BGs without a priori knowledge, and to synthetize indicators of different types. Hierarchical clustering was then used to create BG classes. Results: The four first components of the MFA explained respectively 23, 14, 13 and 12% of the total variance. Clustering in 3 classes group: 1) BGs far from industries, greener and with less noise and air pollution than the average; 2) BGs close to industries with less green spaces and air pollution than the average; and 3)BGs far from industries but with higher levels of noise, air pollution and traffic. Greater numbers of classes were tested in order to assess a variety of clustering.Conclusions: We present a data driven approach using data mining techniques, which seem overlooked for cumulative exposure assessment in complex environmental settings. Although it cannot be applied directly for risk or health effect assessment, the resulting index can help to identify hot spots of cumulative exposure, to prioritize urban policies or to compare the environmental burden across study areas in an epidemiological framework.

The pre-rift Mesozoic sequences of the Cretaceous passive margins fossilized in the North Pyrenean Zone (NPZ) are characterized by high temperature deformation in relation with thinning of the continental basement. Our compilation of chronological and geological data confirms a clear correlation between the distribution of the highest paleotemperatures in the pre-rift sedimentary cover and the loci of extreme crustal stretching. Geological evidences such as the occurrence of peridotite bodies directly underlying metamorphic pre-rift sediments indicate an early attenuation of the rifted continental crust. This leads us to propose a mechanism of rifting involving boudinage of the continental crust. The lateral extraction of the Paleozoic basement occurred under the pre-rift cover that is decoupled on the Triassic clays and evaporates. The thermal conditions allowing coeval ductile deformation of the crust and of the pre-rift sediments leaded to the widening of basins devoid of large faulted blocks. We discuss the implications on the origin and significance of the granulites and the relations between flysch deposition and high temperature metamorphism of the pre-rift sediments. In the NPZ, Albian-Cenomanian flysch sequences were deposited synchronously with the syn-metamorphic ductile deformation of the pre-rift sequences. Since the base of the flysch deposits also recorded locally the high-temperature tectonic event, we propose an original mechanism for the evolution of the basins involving continuous deformation of the pre-rift metamorphic sediments. At the scale of the Pyrenean domain, our results suggest a strong lateral variability in the tectonic style of passive margins, in direct link with their thermic pattern

Résumé : International audience
In the frame of the Africa-Europe convergence, the Mediterranean tectonic system presents a complex interaction between subduction rollback and upper-plate deformation during the Tertiary. The western Mediterranean is characterized by the exhumation of the largest subcontinental mantle massif worldwide (the Ronda Peridotite) and a narrow arcuate geometryacross the Gibraltar arc within the Betic-Rif belt (the internal part being called the Alboran domain), where the relationship between slab dynamics and surface tectonics is not well understood. New structural and geochronological data are used to argue for 1/ hyperstrechting of the continental lithosphere allowing extensional mantle exhumation to shallow depths, followed by 2/ lower miocene thrusting. Two Lower Miocene E-W-trending strike-slip corridors played a major role in the deformation pattern of the Alboran Domain, in which E-W dextral strike-slip faults, N60°-trending thrusts and N140°-trending normal faults developed simultaneously during dextral strike-slip simple shear. The inferred continuous westward translation of the Alboran Domain is accommodated by a major E-W-trending lateral ramp (strike-slip) and a N60°-trending frontal thrust. At lithosphere-scale, we interpret the observed deformation pattern as the upper-plate expression of a lateral slab tear and of its westward propagation since Lower Miocene. The crustal emplacement of the Ronda Peridotites occurred at the onset of this westward motion.The Miocene tectonics of the western Alboran is therefore marked by the inversion of a continental rift, triggered by shortening of the upper continental plate and accommodated by E-W dextral strike-slip corridors. During thrusting and westward displacement of the Alboran domain with respect to Iberia, the hot upper plate, which involved the previously exhumed sub-continental mantle, underwent fast cooling.

Résumé : International audience
We present the results of a paleomagnetic study of seven new volcanic sections (146 flows) from Kerguelen Archipelago. For two of these sections, preliminary (;40;Ar/;39;Ar) ages are reported to aid in the calibration of the paleomagnetic results. The primary contribution of this report, however, is a compilation of these new data with those already published in order to describe statistically the characteristics of the paleomagnetic field as recorded by the Kerguelen flood basalts. In total, 258 paleomagnetic directions sampled at 13 stratigraphic sections through the lava pile are available and span an approximately 5 Ma window: from 25 to 30 Ma. The composite section represents at least 11 polarity zones that are correlated to the reference geomagnetic polarity timescale. Our approach is to investigate the average normal and reversed polarity field directions over this 5 Ma window. We calculated a paleomagnetic pole found to be located at ;λ; = 85.5°N, = 189.3°E (A;95; = 2.3°, K = 16.5, N = 233). This pole is in close agreement with the coeval paleomagnetic poles obtained from different worldwide places when analyzed in the Indo-Atlantic hot spot reference frame. In the statistical analysis we tackle the specific question: Is the secular variation isotropic? This question is directly related to the occurrence of a longitudinal confinement of the virtual geomagnetic poles, which is still a matter of debate among paleomagnetists. By means of statistical tests we show that the paleomagnetic data from Kerguelen agree with an isotropic model for paleosecular variation. Finally, we present adjustments to Camps and Prévot's (1996) statistical model, developed for some Northern Hemisphere latitudes, to the Southern Hemisphere paleomagnetic data from Kerguelen.

Résumé : The ecological success of cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis mainly relies on nutrient recycling. Environmental changes, such as global warming or pollution, often result to symbiosis breakdown, also called cnidarian bleaching. The understanding of mechanisms regulating the symbiosis establishment, maintenance and breakdown is essential to prevent massive bleaching phenomena. In this respect, my PhD project focused on the characterization of chemical mediators expressed in the sea anemone Anemonia viridis, their localization and their modulation by stress conditions. A comparative study was first conducted to characterize the chemical mediators and analyze their distribution within the symbiotic sea anemone. We described a great abundance and diversity of lipids in A. viridis tissues. From these results, we proposed possible transfers of FAs between the symbiotic partners. A thermal stress and a chemical stress have also been applied in laboratory-controlled conditions in order to induce symbiosis breakdown and bleaching of the sea anemones, in order to correlate A. viridis metabolome to its symbiotic status. A mapping of these metabolites has been performed by MALDI-MSI of tentacle cross-sections, as well as their evolution following stress. Some betaine lipids have thus been proposed as short-term indicators of stress. A. viridis stress response has also been evaluated with a lipidomic approach, and allowed to identify 3 lipid indicators of early stress response based on membrane fluidity markers. Overall, this study provides insight on key chemical mediators that may regulate the symbiosis maintenance, and may contribute to the symbiosis breakdown.
Le succès évolutif des Cnidaires symbiotiques réside en grande partie dans leurs échanges trophiques établis avec les Dinoflagellés du genre Symbiodinium. Cependant, le réchauffement climatique global ainsi que les pollutions ont un impact fort sur les écosystèmes coralliens, notamment en conduisant à la rupture de la symbiose, phénomène appelé blanchissement. La compréhension des mécanismes qui régissent l’établissement, le maintien et la rupture de la symbiose est essentielle à la prévention des épisodes de blanchissement massif. Dans ce contexte, les objectifs de mon projet de thèse sont de caractériser les médiateurs chimiques de l’anémone de mer Anemonia viridis, de les localiser, et d’analyser leur réponse face à un stress. Parmi les composés caractérisés, les lipides et les bétaïnes sont les plus abondants et présentent une grande diversité. Certains sont transférés des symbiotes vers l’hôte. Des anémones de mer ont ensuite été traitées en laboratoire afin de provoquer la rupture de la symbiose et le blanchissement des individus. Une étude cinétique a été menée par une approche globale comparative identique à celle réalisée sur l’anémone symbiotique. Par ailleurs, une cartographie de l’évolution de composés clé a été réalisée par MALDI-MSI. La réponse au stress a été évaluée et a permis d’identifier des lipides de bétaïne et trois indicateurs lipidiques comme marqueurs de réponse précoce au stress. L’ensemble de ces résultats apporte de nouveaux éléments de réponse concernant le rôle des médiateurs chimiques clés dans le maintien de la symbiose, ainsi que leur influence sur sa rupture.

Résumé : International audience
The eastern part of the Cordillera Occidental of Ecuador comprises thick buoyant oceanic plateaus associated with island-arc tholeiites and subduction-related calc-alkaline series, accreted to the Ecuadorian Continental Margin from Late Cretaceous to Eocene times. One of these plateau sequences, the Guaranda Oceanic Plateau is considered as remnant of the Caribbean–Colombian Oceanic Province (CCOP) accreted to the Ecuadorian Margin in the Maastrichtien. Samples studied in this paper were taken from four cross-sections through two arc-sequences in the northern part of the Cordillera Occidental of Ecuador, dated as (Río Cala) or ascribed to (Macuchi) the Late Cretaceous and one arc-like sequence in the Chogòn-Colonche Cordillera (Las Orquídeas). These three island-arcs can clearly be identified and rest conformably on the CCOP. In all four localities, basalts with abundant large clinopyroxene phenocrysts can be found, mimicking a picritic or ankaramitic facies. This mineralogical particularity, although not uncommon in island arc lavas, hints at a contribution of the CCOP in the genesis of these island arc rocks. The complete petrological and geochemical study of these rocks reveals that some have a primitive island-arc nature (MgO values range from 6 to 11 wt.%). Studied samples display marked Nb, Ta and Ti negative anomalies relative to the adjacent elements in the spidergrams characteristic of subduction-related magmatism. These rocks are LREE-enriched and their clinopyroxenes show a tholeiitic affinity (FeOT–TiO2 enrichment and CaO depletion from core to rim within a single crystal). The four sampled cross-sections through the island-arc sequences display homogeneous initial Nd, and Pb isotope ratios that suggest a unique mantellic source for these rocks resulting from the mixing of three components: an East-Pacific MORB end-member, an enriched pelagic sediment component, and a HIMU component carried by the CCOP. Indeed, the ankaramite and Mg-basalt sequences that form part of the Caribbean-Colombian Oceanic Plateau are radiogenically enriched in 206Pb/204Pb and 207Pb/204Pb and contain a HIMU component similar to that observed in the Gorgona basalts and Galápagos lavas. The subduction zone that generated the Late Cretaceous arcs occurred far from the continental margin, in an oceanic environment. This implies that no terrigenous detrital sediments interacted with the source at this period. Thus, the enriched component can only result from the melting of subducted pelagic sediments. We have thus defined the East-Pacific MORB, enriched (cherts, pelagic sediments) and HIMU components in an attempt to constrain and model the genesis of the studied island-arc magmatism, using a compilation of carefully selected isotopic data from literature according to rock age and paleogeographic location at the time of arc edification. Tripolar mixing models reveal that proportions of 12–15 wt.% of the HIMU component, 7–15 wt.% of the pelagic sediment end-member and 70–75 wt.% of an East-pacific MORB end-member are needed to explain the measured isotope ratios. These surprisingly high proportions of the HIMU/CCOP component could be explained by the young age of the oceanic plateau (5–15 Ma) during the Late Cretaceous arc emplacement. The CCOP, basement of these arc sequences, was probably still hot and easily assimilated at the island-arc lava source.

Résumé : EGU2012-6377- Geophysical Research Abstracts vol. 14
The hot geothermal fluid produced by the wells of the Bouillante power station, in Guadeloupe, contains various dissolved species such as silica or some metals (Zn, Pb, etc). During the exploitation, the geothermal fluid is flashing and cooling (from 260 to 160°C for the high-pressure steam-liquid separation and down to 110°C for the low-pressure phase separation of a part of the separated liquid at 160°C). Consequently, the dissolved species can form scale deposits such as amorphous silica or poly-metallic sulphides, according to the exploitation conditions, and cause serious scaling problems on the production and the surface installations. These minerals could also precipitate during the partial underground re-injection of the production fluids which is being set up in the Bouillante power station. In this study, in order to predict and prevent the possible silica precipitation at temperature lower than 160°C, during the partial underground reinjection of the production fluids of Bouillante or their thermal valorization down to 110°C temperatures, we propose to investigate on site the kinetics of silica precipitation as a function of temperature and pH. The experiments presented here were carried out on site on samples of separated waters collected after the steam-water separator at 160°C, containing about 600 ppm of SiO2, at four cooling temperatures: 22, 50, 75 and 90°C, and for pH ranging from 4 to 9. These experiments showed that the silica deposition was always initiated by a polymerization mechanism characterized by an order 2 kinetic law and the formation of a white colloidal gel, which slowed down the silica precipitation under solid form. This latter was observed much later, after the polymerization stage, and only in particular conditions (long time of atmospheric exposure, water stagnation,. . . ). The results also confirmed that the silica precipitation kinetics is strongly dependent on pH. In acidic solution, a transition period is observed before the beginning to the silica polymerization. At neutral-basic pH, there is no transition period and the rate of polymerization is maximal for pH close to 8. The undergoing modeling of these experimental data and specific surface area measurements on the colloidal gel will allow us to determinate the kinetics parameters useful for the prediction and prevention of silica precipitation under the specific exploitation conditions of Bouillante power station.

Résumé : International audience
The geologic evolution of the South Armenian Block (SAB) in the Mesozoic is reconstructed from a structural, metamorphic, and geochronologic study including U–Pb and 40Ar/39Ar dating. The South Armenian Block Crystalline Basement (SABCB) outcrops solely in a narrow tectonic window, NW of Yerevan. The study of this zone provides key and unprecedented information concerning closing of the Northern Neotethys oceanic domain north of the Taurides-Anatolides platform from the Middle Jurassic to the Early Cretaceous. The basement comprises of presumed Proterozoic orthogneiss overlain by metamorphosed pelites as well as intrusions of granodiorite and leucogranite during the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous. Structural, geochronological and petrological observations show a multiphased evolution of the northern margin of the SAB during the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous. A south-dipping subduction under the East Anatolian Platform-South Armenian Block (EAP-SAB) is proposed in order to suit recent findings pertaining emplacement of relatively hot subduction related granodiorite as well as the metamorphic evolution of the crystalline basement in the Lesser Caucasus area. The metamorphism is interpreted as evidencing: (1) M1 Barrovian MP–MT conditions (staurolite–kyanite) at c. 157–160 Ma and intrusion of dioritic magmas at c. 150–156 Ma, (2) near-adiabatic decompression is featured by partial melting and production of leucogranites at c. 153 Ma, followed by M2 HT–LP conditions (andalusite–K-feldspar). A phase of shearing and recrystallization is ascribed to doming at c. 130–150 Ma and cooling at 400 °C by c. 123 Ma (M3). Structural observations show (1) top to the north shearing during M1 and (2) radial extension during M2. The extensional event ends by emplacement of a thick detrital series along radial S, E and W-dipping normal faults. Further, the crystalline basement is unconformably covered by Upper Cretaceous-Paleocene series dated by nannofossils, evolving from Maastrichtian marly sandstones to Paleocene limestones.
