Résumé : International audience
Apatite fission track analysis (AFTA) data are used to bring new light on the long-term and recent history of the Baikal rift region (Siberia). We describe the evolution of the topography along a NW-SE profile from the Siberian platform to the Barguzin range across the Baikal-southern Patom range and the northern termination of Lake Baikal. Our results show that the Baikal-Patom range started to form in the Early Carboniferous and was reactivated in Middle Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous times during the orogenic collapse of the Mongol-Okhotsk belt. Samples located in the Siberian platform recorded a continuous sedimentation up to the early Carboniferous but remain unaffected by later tectonic episodes. The Barguzin basin probably started to form as early as Late Cretaceous, suggesting a continuum of deformation between the postorogenic collapse and the opening of the Baikal Rift System (BRS). The initial driving mechanism for the opening of the BRS is thus independent from the India-Asia collision. AFTA show a late Miocene-early Pliocene increase in tectonic extension in the BRS that confirms previous thoughts and might reflect the first significant effect of the stress field generated by the India-Asia collision.

Résumé : In atoll lagoons of French Polynesia, growth and reproduction of pearl oysters are mainly driven by plankton concentration. However, the actual diet of black-lip pearl oysters P. margaritifera in these lagoons is poorly known. To fill this gap, we used the flow through chamber method to measure clearance rates of P. margaritifera in Ahe atoll lagoon (Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia). We found : (i) that pearl oysters cleared plankton at a rate that was positively related to plankton biovolume, (ii) that nanoflagellates were the main source of carbon for the pearl oysters, (iii) that the quantity and origin of carbon filtrated by pearl oysters was highly dependent on the concentration and composition of plankton. These results provide essential elements for the comprehension of growth and reproduction variability of pearl oysters in atoll lagoons of French Polynesia.
