Résumé : The relation between primary and secondary growth has been traditionally studied in terms of growth units and has always being assumed as closely correlated. Pluviometric variation directly affects growth patterns in the neotropical pioneer species Jacaranda copaia. In French Guiana this species produces annual growth rings in the dry season that can be seen with the naked eye.The morphological and anatomical description of three monocaulous individuals was made node by node. The trees where felled at a roadside locality close to the city of Kourou, French Guiana. The comparison of intermodal distance, pith transversal area and wood ring area variation within an individual elucidates the origin of well-known problems in dendrochronological analysis of tropical trees.The wood found close to the pith, known as young wood, always has false wood rings; the production of these rings is correlated with short intermodal distances and small pith transversal area. This phenomenon seems to be caused by minor intrannual pluviometric variation that affects both primary and secondary growth. This new methodological approach helps morphologists and anatomists interpret growth patterns in tropical trees in a more holistic way.

Résumé : International audience
Cyanobacteria are a component of public health hazards in freshwater environments because of their potential as toxin producers. Eutrophication has long been considered the main cause of cyanobacteria outbreak and proliferation, whereas many studies emphasized the effect of abiotic parameters (mainly temperature and light) on cell growth rate or toxin production. In view of the growing concerns of global change consequences on public health parameters, this study attempts to enlighten climate influence on cyanobacteria at regional scale in Brittany (NW France). The results show that homogeneous cyanobacteria groups are associated with climatic domains related to temperature, global radiation and pluviometry, whereas microcystins (MCs) occurrences are only correlated to local cyanobacteria species composition. As the regional climatic gradient amplitude is similar to the projected climate evolution on a 30-year timespan, a comparison between the present NW and SE situations was used to extrapolate the evolution of geographical cyanobacteria distribution in Brittany. Cyanobacteria composition should shift toward species associated with more frequent Microcystins occurrences along a NW/SE axis whereas lakes situated along a SW/NE axis should transition to species (mainly Nostocales) associated with lower MCs detection frequencies.

Résumé : International audience
Le premier volet du projet Cyprim vise à mieux identifier les précurseurs des cyclogenèses et des précipitations intenses en région méditerranéenne. Cet article en présente les principaux résultats. Il est question des ingrédients météorologiques à l'origine de ces systèmes, de la grande à la mésoéchelle, des causes des fortes intensités, localisations et parfois stationnarité des récipitations associées. Le coeur de l'article présente des méthodes d'identification des anomalies de tourbillon potentiel liées à l'occurrence d'événements précipitants intenses et dresse une climatologie de ces anomalies. Les perspectives d'exploitation de cette information pour améliorer la qualité des prévisions sont évoquées. ENGLISH VERSION: The first part of the CYPRIM project (Cyclogenesis and intense precipitations in the Mediterranean region) aims at a better identification of the precursor structures of cyclogenesis and heavy precipitation in the Mediterranean region. This article presents the main results. It mentions the meteorological ingredients from which these systems originate from the large to themesoscale, the reasons for large intensities, the localization and sometimes stationarity of the associated precipitations. The heart of the article shows methods for identifiying potential vorticity anomalies involved in the occurrence of heavy precipitation events and sets up a climatology of these anomalies.The perspectives of the usefulness of this information for improving forecast quality are discussed.

Résumé : This synthesis report assesses the current state of the marine hydrobiological knowledge acquired in the surroundings of the Flamanville electronuclear site (north-west of Cotentin), in the framework of the various project and monitoring programs in the pelagic, benthic and halieutic domains carried out on this site since 1976. Each domain is divided, as much as necessary, into different study areas such as hydrobiology, phytoplankton, microbiology, crustacean larvae or macrophyte algae. For each area, a series of parameters, considered as representative of the evolution of this area, is studied. In this way, for the hydrological area, the sea water temperature and salinity, the mineral nutriment concentrations, the holagen compounds and the boron are monitored. The evolution of each of these parameters enabled us to draw the following conclusions. The vegetal and animal species' physiology is conditioned by climate changes. The study of the pluviometry and air temperature parameters shows that the 1986/2005 period is slightly less humid and warmer than the 1949/2005 period. This reflects also on the sea water temperature whose average values increase on a regular basis.
Ce rapport de synthèse fait le point sur l'état des connaissances hydrobiologiques marines acquises aux abords du site électronucléaire de Flamanville (nord-ouest Cotentin), dans le cadre des différents programmes de projet et de surveillance des domaines pélagique, benthique et halieutique, menés sur ce site depuis 1976. Chaque domaine est divisé, autant que nécessaire, en compartiments d'étude, tels que l'hydrologie, le phytoplancton, la microbiologie, les larves de crustacés ou les algues macrophytes. Pour chaque compartiment, une série de paramètres, jugés représentatifs de l'évolution de ce compartiment, est étudié. Ainsi, pour le compartiment hydrologique, sont suivis la température et la salinité de l'eau de mer, les concentrations en nutriments minéraux, les composés halogénés et le bore. Les évolutions de ces différents paramètres ont permis d'élaborer les conclusions suivantes. La physiologie des espèces animales et végétales est conditionnée par les changements climatiques. L'examen des paramètres pluviométrie et température de l'air montre que la période 1986/2005 est sensiblement plus humide et plus chaude que la période 1949/2005. Cela se répercute également sur la température de l'eau de mer dont les valeurs moyennes croissent régulièrement.

Résumé : International audience
A geographic information system (GIS) was developed in Martinique, to perform soil zoning for the revival of the production of Coffea arabica var. typica.Pioneer in the cultivation of coffee in the Caribbean since 1720, today Martinique plays no role in the coffee industry. In addition, due to its rarity on the island, the edapho-climatic requirements of Coffea arabica had to be defined based on the world literature. The digital data (isohyets, isotherm, geomorphology) was obtained from Martinique’s institutions with expertise in the production of environmental data (IRD, IGN, Météo- France, DEAL Martinique, CTM)1. These data have been processed with a SIG software: QGIS version 2.8.1. During the investigations, the rainfall represented a factor limiting any possibility of production of Coffea arabica var. typica in the future. By removing the pluviometry from the set of parameters, we can visualize the areas that might be acceptable to this culture. With the forecast of the National Meteorological services for the 2071-2100 period under the new climate requirements, we carried out an agroclimatic zoning which also showed us the impossibility of producing this coffee in the future.
