Résumé : For a decade, distance-based methods have been widely employed and constantly improved in the field of spatial economics. These methods are a very useful tool for accurately evaluating the spatial distribution of plants or retail stores, for example (Duranton and Overman, 2008). In this paper, we introduce a new distance-based statistical measure for evaluating the spatial concentration of economic activities. To our knowledge, the m function is the first relative density function to be proposed in the economics literature. This tool supplements the typology of distance-based methods recently drawn up by Marcon and Puech (2012). By considering several theoretical and empirical examples, we show the advantages and the limits of the m function for detecting spatial structures in economics.

Résumé : We unify the definitions of phylogenetic and functional entropy and diversity as a generalization of HCDT entropy when an ultrametric tree is considered. We derive the decomposition of phylodiversity and its estimation bias correction to allow its estimation from real, often undersampled data. Phyloentropy can be transformed into phylodiversity to provide a measure of true diversity, i.e. an effective number of species or communities.

Résumé : Over the last decade, distance-based methods have been introduced and then improved in the field of spatial economics to gauge the geographic concentration of activities. There is a growing literature on this theme including new tools, discussions on their specific properties and various applications. However, there is currently no typology of distance-based methods. This paper fills that gap. The proposed classification helps understand all the properties of distance-based methods and proves that they are variations on the same framework.

Résumé : International audience
We generalize Ripley's K function to get a new function, M, to characterize the spatial structure of a point pattern relatively to another one. We show that this new approach is pertinent in ecology when space is not homogenous and the size of objects matters. We present how to use the function and test the data against the null hypothesis of independence between points. In a tropical tree data set we detect intraspecific aggregation and interspecific competition.

Résumé :  
The expansion of selective logging in tropical forests may be an important source of global carbon emissions. However, the effects of logging practices on the carbon cycle have never been quantified over long periods of time. We followed the fate of more than 60 000 tropical trees over 23 years to assess changes in aboveground carbon stocks in 48 1.56-ha plots in French Guiana that represent a gradient of timber harvest intensities, with and without intensive timber stand improvement (TSI) treatments to stimulate timber tree growth. Conventional selective logging led to emissions equivalent to more than a third of aboveground carbon stocks in plots without TSI (85 Mg C/ha), while plots with TSI lost more than one-half of aboveground carbon stocks (142 Mg C/ha). Within 20 years of logging, plots without TSI sequestered aboveground carbon equivalent to more than 80% of aboveground carbon lost to logging (-70.7 Mg C/ha), and our simulations predicted an equilibrium aboveground carbon balance within 45 years of logging. In contrast, plots with intensive TSI are predicted to require more than 100 years to sequester aboveground carbon lost to emissions. These results indicate that in some tropical forests aboveground carbon storage can be recovered within half a century after conventional logging at moderate harvest intensities.

Résumé : International audience
We present a plant trait database covering autecology for rain forest trees of French Guiana. The database comprises more than thirty traits including autecology (e.g., habitat associations and reproductive phenology), wood structure (e.g., density and tension characteristics) and physiology at the whole plant (e.g., carbon and nitrogen isotopes) and leaf level (e.g., specific leaf area, photosynthetic capacity). The current database describes traits for about nine hundred species from three hundred genera in one hundred families. For more than sixty species, data on twelve morphological and ecophysiological traits are provided for individual plants under different environmental conditions and at different ontogenetic stages. The database is thus unique in permitting intraspecific analyses, such as the effects of ontogenetic stages or environmental conditions on trait values and their relationships.

Résumé : Similarity-based diversity (Leinster and Cobbold 2012) encompasses classical measures of diversity, including the number of species, Shannon and Simpson diversity, and also phylogenetic and functional diversity. We derive two estimators to allow applying it to real, often under-sampled data, and its decomposition into alpha, beta and gamma diversity when an assemblage of communities is considered.

Résumé : Master
La biodiversité peut être mesurée de nombreuses façons. La dualité entropie-diversité fournit un cadre clair et rigoureux pour le faire. L’entropie est la surprise moyenne fournie par les individus d’une communauté. Le choix de la fonction d’information qui mesure cette surprise à partir des probabilités d’occurence des espèces (ou d’autres catégories) permet de définir les mesures de diversités neutres, fonctionnelles ou phylogénétique présentées ici. L’entropie est transformée en diversité au sens strict par une fonction croissante (l’exponentielle déformée), ce qui simplifie son interprétation en tant que nombre équivalent d’espèces.L’entropie phylogénétique généralise les indices de diversité classique, intègre si nécessaire la distance entre espèces, peut être écomposée et corrigée des biais d’estimation. Sa transformation en diversité au sens strict permet d’interpréter les valeurs sous une forme unique : un nombre équivalent d’espèces et un nombre équivalent de communautés. La diversité de Leinster et Cobbold généralise à son tour la diversité phylogénétique et permet d’autres définitions de la distance entre espèces. Le paramétrage des mesures (l’ordre de la diversité) permet de donner plus ou moins d’importance aux espèces rares et de tracer des profils de diversité.La construction de ce cadre méthodologique est présentée en détail ainsi que plusieurs approches différentes, qui constituent l'état de l'art de la mesure de la biodiversité.

Résumé : Modern measures of diversity satisfy reasonable axioms, are parameterized to produce diversity profiles, come with an effective number of species to simplify their interpretation, and estimators to apply them to real data. Generalized Simpson's entropy has all of these features and can be used as a measure of biodiversity. Moreover, unlike most commonly used diversity indices, it has unbiased estimator, which allows for robust estimation of the diversity of poorly sampled, rich communities.

Résumé : Mes travaux de recherche portent sur la caractérisation de l’hétérogénéité, précisément des structures spatiales et de la diversité. J’ai développé de nouvelles mesures de la structure spatiale appliquées principalement en économie géographique et des mesures de diversité appliquées principalement à la biodiversité des arbres. Le fil directeur de ces travaux méthodologiques est de construire des mesures correspondant à une réalité physique, facilement compréhensible, pouvant être utilisées ensuite pour comprendre sans ambiguïté les processus économiques ou écologiques concernés.Mon projet de recherche à moyen terme consiste à combiner les deux approches pour caractériser la diversité explicitement dans l’espace et dans le temps, et à étendre mes méthodes à d’autres objets (diversité microbienne par exemple) plus complexes. Au-delà de ces travaux méthodologiques, mon objectif à plus long terme est d’aller vers la modélisation des processus générant les patrons de diversité.

Résumé : JEL : C40 ; C60 ; R12 ; L60
This study introduces two new measures of spatial concentration. The proposed M functions constitute an extension to Ripley's functions (Ripley, 1976, 1977). They allow the evaluation of the relative geographic concentration and co-location of industries in a non-homogeneous spatial framework. Some rigorous comparisons with similar recently developed tools prove the relevance of the M functions in the field of spatial economics.
