Résumé : International audience
Overfishing and habitat destruction due to local and global threats are undermining fisheries, biodiversity, and the long-term sustainability of tropical marine ecosystems worldwide, including in the Coral Triangle. Well-designed and effectively managed marine reserve networks can reduce local threats, and contribute to achieving multiple objectives regarding fisheries management, biodiversity conservation and adaptation to changes in climate and ocean chemistry. Previous studies provided advice regarding ecological guidelines for designing marine reserves to achieve one or two of these objectives. While there are many similarities in these guidelines, there are key differences that provide conflicting advice. Thus, there is a need to provide integrated guidelines for practitioners who wish to design marine reserves to achieve all three objectives simultaneously. Scientific advances regarding fish connectivity and recovery rates, and climate and ocean change vulnerability, also necessitate refining advice for marine reserve design. Here we review ecological considerations for marine reserve design, and provide guidelines to achieve all three objectives simultaneously regarding: habitat representation; risk spreading; protecting critical, special and unique areas; reserve size, spacing, location, and duration; protecting climate resilient areas; and minimizing and avoiding threats. In addition to applying ecological guidelines, reserves must be designed to address social and governance considerations, and be integrated within broader fisheries and coastal management regimes.

Résumé : Chacun peut observer dans le monde réel l’omniprésence de systèmes complexes constitués de nombreux éléments en interaction et dont les caractéristiques globales ne peuvent se réduire à celles de leurs composants : ce sont par exemple les cellules d’un organisme vivant, les colonies de fourmis, les écosystèmes, ou encore les systèmes économiques, l’Internet et les réseaux sociaux. Dans le futur, nos sociétés devront relever l’immense défi scientifique et technologique qui consiste à comprendre ces systèmes pour les adapter, les contrôler et les modéliser. Au travers d’exemples choisis sans complication inutile, les auteurs proposent une introduction par la pratique aux systèmes complexes. Leur méthode repose sur la conviction que toute compréhension suppose un acte d’expérience; l’ouvrage est composé d’ateliers où il s’agit de simuler une dynamique collective à partir de sa modélisation orientée-agent. Les étudiants, les enseignants, les créateurs et plus largement toute personne avide de développer sa culture et d’actualiser ses connaissances tireront parti de cet ouvrage pluridisciplinaire accessible à un large public.

Résumé : Carbon isotopic signature has been measured at the different stages of the soil CO2 efflux production in trenched and control plots to improve the knowledge about the physical and biochemical processes of the soil respiration. All the measurements of _13C have been performed using a mass-spectrometer.We have compared the isotopic signatures of the CO2 going out of the soil, the CO2 of the soil atmosphere, the organic carbon in the material that could be considered as the main soil respiration sources (live and dead roots, soil organic matter, aerial litter) and the CO2 produced by these sources in incubation jars. The aims of this study were to evaluate the possibilities to combine these different data sets to estimate the partitioning of soil respiration between its autotrophic and heterotrophic components, and to get more insight into potential fractionation during biochemical or diffusion processes. Measurements were conducted in a beech forest located at Hesse in the North East of France (site equipped with a flux tower and belonging to the CarboEurope network) and in a neotropical primary rainforest located at Paracou (French Guiana). Preliminary results show first a very tenuous difference between CO2 isotopic signatures of efflux coming from the trenched and control plots and, secondly, _13C significant divergences between bulk organic material and CO2 produced in the corresponding incubation jars. Our ability to use this kind of data for partitioning soil respiration into its main components will be discussed.
