Résumé : International audience
This paper shows how the notion of “local site of a question” helps the teacher to get into this question in order to teach it. We discuss the relationship between the description of what has to be deeply known to answer the difficulties or the obstacles which arise for the pupils during the study of a question, and what Shulman, and his successors, model under the name of pedagogical content knowledge. A survey, conducted among current French teachers, shows how they are powerless when facing the difficulties of their pupils and a study of some old teaching books shows how this problem was addressed in former teaching practices. Based on these results, we open the discussion of the training of the teachers.
L’article montre l’usage possible de la notion de « site local d’une question » dans le travail du professeur se préparant à enseigner cette question. On discute à cette occasion les proximités entre la description de ce qu’il y a à savoir profondément, pour répondre aux difficultés ou obstacles que rencontreront les élèves au cours de l’étude d’une question, et ce que Shulman et ses successeurs modélisent sous le terme de « pedagogical content knowledge ». Une enquête auprès de professeurs actuels montre comment ils sont démunis face aux difficultés des élèves, et une enquête dans des ouvrages d’enseignement anciens montre comment le problème soulevé a été traité en pratique par l’enseignement traditionnel. L’article discute alors le problème de la formation que les professeurs seraient en droit d’attendre.

Résumé : International audience
Background: Heterogeneous patterns of malaria transmission are thought to be driven by factors including host genetics, distance to mosquito breeding sites, housing construction, and socio-behavioural characteristics. Evaluation of local transmission epidemiology to characterize malaria risk is essential for planning malaria control and elimination programmes. The use of geographical information systems (GIS) techniques has been a major asset to this approach. To assess time and space distribution of malaria disease in Bandiagara, Mali, within a transmission season, data were used from an ongoing malaria incidence study that enrolled 300 participants aged under six years old ". Methods: Children's households were georeferenced using a handheld global position system. Clinical malaria was defined as a positive blood slide for Plasmodium falciparum asexual stages associated with at least one of the following signs: headache, body aches, fever, chills and weakness. Daily rainfall was measured at the local weather station. Landscape features of Bandiagara were obtained from satellite images and field survey. QGIS™ software was used to map malaria cases, affected and non-affected children, and the number of malaria episodes per child in each block of Bandiagara. Clusters of high or low risk were identified under SaTScan W software according to a Bernoulli model. Results: From June 2009 to May 2010, 296 clinical malaria cases were recorded. Though clearly temporally related to the rains, Plasmodium falciparum occurrence persisted late in the dry season. Two " hot spots " of malaria transmission also found, notably along the Yamé River, characterized by higher than expected numbers of malaria cases, and high numbers of clinical episodes per child. Conversely, the northeastern sector of the town had fewer cases despite its proximity to a large body of standing water which was mosquito habitat. Conclusion: These results confirm the existence of a marked spatial heterogeneity of malaria transmission in Bandiagara, providing support for implementation of targeted interventions. Background Malaria is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the world, with an estimated 3.3 billion people at risk of malaria [1]. The incidence of malaria worldwide is estimated to be 216 million cases per year, with 81% of these cases occurring in sub-Saharan Africa. Malaria kills approximately 655,000 people per year; 91% of deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa [1], mostly in children under five years of age. In Mali, West Africa, malaria represents 36.5% of consultation motives in health center, it is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality children of less than five years of age and the first reason of anaemia in pregnant women [2]. Malaria transmission is seasonal. Malaria parasite transmission and clinical disease are characterized by important microgeographic variation, often between adjacent villages, households or families [3-8]. This local heterogeneity is driven by a variety of factors including human genetics [9,10], distance to potential breeding sites [11,12], housing construction

Résumé : International audience
The French ministry of education introduced in 2005 the « organized returning of knowledge » (ROC) in the French baccalauréat as a tool to render more efficient the mathematical education at the end of secondary school. This article is based on an analysis of the ROC of the 2006 Antilles-Guyane baccalauréat, by the anthropological approach to didactics, which leads to the construction of its mathematical site. Through this analysis, some features of the ROC are discussed, such as its consistency (including from the view point of the institution) and the transparency of this evaluation.
L’introduction des restitutions organisées de connaissances (ROC) dans les épreuves du baccalauréat, à partir de 2005, est une réponse de l’institution à la volonté de rendre plus efficace l’enseignement en cycle terminal. Cet article s’appuie sur l’analyse de la ROC du sujet Antilles Guyane session 2006 par une approche anthropologique en proposant la construction de son site mathématique. Au travers de cet exemple sont interrogées certaines caractéristiques du concept ROC comme sa cohérence (notamment institutionnelle) et la transparence de cette évaluation.

Résumé : International audience
The mathematical site of an exercise or a theorem is a useful tool which helps to organize its study, by putting into a hierarchy the various elements (substratum, objects, techniques, technologies) relevant to describe its ecosystem. These characteristics of the mathematical site turn it into a help for the pupil or student (within the framework of an evaluation in mathematics), what we show by the analysis in term of site of a subject given in the competitive ex-amination for secondary school teaching (CAPES) in mathematics. Furthermore, by revealing the organization of a mathematical concept, we show that the site can be a tool for professional training of teachers of mathematics, on the example of the characterization of a constant function on an interval by its derivative.
Le site mathématique local d’un énoncé d’exercice ou d’un théorème de cours se compose d’un système d’êtres mathématiques (objets, techniques, technologies…) et de relations, enrichis par un substrat, formé d’éléments non mathématisables dans l’institution considérée, dévoilant l’organisation de la question. Ces caractéristiques font que le site local fonctionne comme un écosystème, permettant la compréhension d’activités mathématiques de classe, d’évaluation, ce que nous montrons par l’analyse d’un dossier d’oral 2 du CAPES externe de mathématiques. Ce faisant, il devient un outil du professeur pour guider les élèves dans l’étude d’une question. De plus, comme il révèle les organisations locales en mathématiques, le site peut être utilisé comme un outil de formation professionnelle d’enseignants. Par exemple, il permet de questionner les progressions scolaires ou universitaires reçues, ce que nous discutons sur le cas de la caractérisation d’une fonction constante sur un intervalle par sa dérivée.

Résumé : National audience
We study various proofs of the characterization of constant functions, more precisely of the theorem: a derivable function, defined on a real interval, is constant if, and only if, its derivative is null. Our aim is to study the relationships of these proofs with the mathematical curriculum of secondary schools and the beginning of undergraduate studies in France, from various points of views (epistemological, historical, and didactical). This study leads to the construction of the mathematical site of the studied theorem and can serve as a basis for training activities around the fundamental theorems of elementary analysis.
Nous étudions plusieurs démonstrations de la caractérisation suivante des fonctions constantes : une fonction, définie sur un intervalle, dérivable est constante si, et seulement si, sa dérivée est nulle. Le but est d'étudier les relations entre ces démonstrations et le curriculum en France à la jonction entre la fin des études secondaires et le début des études supérieures, avec des apports venant de différents points de vue (épistémologique, historique, didactique). Cette étude mène à la construction du site mathématique local du théorème étudié et peut servir de base à des activités de formation autour des théorèmes fondamentaux de l'analyse élémentaire.

Résumé : El Caribe colombiano ha experimentado un acelerado proceso de urbanización y desarrollo turístico en los últimos 50 años. Solo en una ciudad como Cartagena de Indias (la ciudad turística por excelencia de Colombia), datos referidos al periodo noviembre 2009 – enero 2015, mostraron un incremento en la llegada de turistas cercano al 20%. Después de un gran número de encuestas realizadas alrededor del mundo, se encontró que los parámetros en que se basan los turistas a la hora de preferir una playa son: i) la seguridad, ii) el paisaje, iii) calidad del agua, iv) basuras, v) instalaciones. El paisaje es uno de los recursos costeros y por lo tanto su evaluación es una herramienta importante para los gestores y planificadores del litoral a la hora de la realización de planes de conservación, protección, desarrollo y manejo. Este trabajo se basa en la evaluación del valor paisajístico de las playas que constituyen la base de la economía de muchas ciudades costeras en el mundo y en especial de la zona central de litoral Caribe colombiano. Un problema importante en la evaluación del paisaje es la incapacidad de algunas metodologías de reflejar correctamente las percepciones de la gente, debido al alto peso que tienen algunos aspectos subjetivos (p. ej. altura de una geoforma).En este trabajo se presenta la evaluación del paisaje realizada para la zona central de Caribe colombiano (37 playas de los departamentos de Sucre, Bolívar y Atlántico) utilizando la lógica matemática y matrices ponderadas (fuzzy logic mathematics - parameter weighting matrices) las cuales permiten disminuir la subjetividad y cuantificar con exactitud la incertidumbre. Para la evaluación se utilizó una lista de chequeo que está conformada por 26 parámetros, 18 físicos (acantilados, playas, plataformas rocosas, dunas, características de los valles, forma del relieve, mareas, paisaje costero, color del agua y restos de vegetación), y 8 antropogénicos (ruido, basura, descarga de aguas residuales, grado de modificación y de construcción del medio, tipos de acceso, línea del horizonte y estructuras antrópicas). Los parámetros fueron calificados en una escala de 1 a 5 (presencia/ausencia o poca/alta calidad) y, con el fin de cuantificar la incertidumbre y excesos derivados de la subjetividad que pudo haber tenido la evaluación de los parámetros, se utilizó la lógica difusa (fuzzy logic). A la par, un sistema de matrices, se empleó para asignar valores de peso de acuerdo a las preferencias y prioridades de los usuarios. Como resultado de estos análisis lógico-estadísticos se obtuvo un valor (D) el cual resume la evaluación del paisaje en 5 clases que van desde la CLASE 1 (zona litoral sumamente atractiva) hasta la CLASE 5 (playas urbanas muy poco atractivas). De los 37 sectores estudiados, ninguno puede ser considerado como una zona litoral sumamente atractiva, mientras que 15 corresponden a zonas litorales urbanas poco atractivas, el resto de las playas (22) se ubicó entre las clases 2, 3 y 4. Los resultados obtenidos son útiles para los gestores costeros en la medida que, aunque no es posible mejorar los aspectos naturales de la clasificación, si es posible mejorar muchos de los parámetros antropogenicos y, de esta forma, hacer que una playa mejore su clasificación y sea paisajísticamente más atractiva.
In the past few years, the Colombian Caribbean coast has experienced rapid tourism development which has not been accompanied with a similar increase in urbanization facilities. For example, the city of Cartagena de Indias (the most famous tourist destination of Colombia), data related to November 2009 – January 2015 period, showed an increase of 20% in tourist arrivals. A large number of surveys developed in Europe found that the most critical parameters for tourists, when they choose a beach, are: i) security, ii) scenery, iii) water quality, iv) litter, v) facilities. Scenery is one of the most significant coastal resources. Therefore, its evaluation is a valuable tool for coastal managers when developing conservation and protection plans. This proposal provides coastal scenery assessment of 37 beaches along the North Colombian Caribbean littoral by analysing 26 physical and human factors. Results were weighted (not all parameters have equal weight) and subjected to fuzzy logic mathematics in order to reduce recorder judgment subjectivity. The sites were categorised into five classes; Class 1 locations had top grade scenery; Class 5 poor scenery. Of the 37 sectors studied, currently none can be considered as an extremely attractive coastal area (class1), while 15 were unattractive urban coastal areas (class 5), the rest of the beaches (22) placed in classes 2, 3 and 4. Classification of analysed sites depends on the geological setting and degree of human occupation. The technique opens new perspectives for analysis of the potential for coastal tourism development in natural areas and scenic quality improvement of current tourist developed areas. Concerning coastal management issues, emphasis should be given to the upgrading of human parameters eliminating litter and sewage evidence, vegetation debris and enhancing beach nourishment works. This proposal can help in moving some locations from their present status to a higher one.

Résumé : International audience
Recent mathematical calculations allow us to define set fracture intensity (I), i.e., the amount of rock mass affected by fracture sets, independently of the investigation mode. This parameter, characteristic of each rock mass, is of much interest to describe the mechanical response of the rock mass to external influences. The aim of this work is to apply these mathematical equations on one site using measurements of three distinct fracture sets: (1) on a plane surface, (2) along a scanline, and (3) using borehole imaging, in order to evaluate and explain variability in collected data. Even if the three types of measurements give differences on absolute intensity values, they still define similar trends, i.e., the order of the fracturing impact of joint sets is the same from the three measurement methods, irrespective of the fact that obtained values are quite different from one survey method to another. We discuss the possible origins of these biases.

Résumé : 28 pages, 6 figures
We study a universal object for the genealogy of a sample in populations with mutations: the critical birth-death process with Poissonian mutations, conditioned on its population size at a fixed time horizon. We show how this process arises as the law of the genealogy of a sample in a large class of critical branching populations with mutations at birth, namely populations converging, in a large population asymptotic, towards the continuum random tree. We extend this model to populations with random foundation times, with (potentially improper) prior distributions g_i: xmapsto x^{-i}, iinZ_+, including the so-called uniform (i=0) and log-uniform (i=1) priors. We first investigate the mutational patterns arising from these models, by studying the site frequency spectrum of a sample with fixed size, i.e. the number of mutations carried by k individuals in the sample. Explicit formulae for the expected frequency spectrum of a sample are provided, in the cases of a fixed foundation time, and of a uniform and log-uniform prior on the foundation time. Second, we establish the convergence in distribution, for large sample sizes, of the (suitably renormalized) tree spanned by the sample genealogy with prior g_i on the time of origin. We finally prove that the limiting genealogies with different priors can all be embedded in the same realization of a given Poisson point measure.

Résumé : International audience
Everyone is subject to environmental exposures from various sources, with negative health impacts (air, water and soil contamination, noise, etc.or with positive effects (e.g. green space). Studies considering such complex environmental settings in a global manner are rare. We propose to use statistical factor and cluster analyses 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 in a large French metropolitan area. The study was carried out in the Great Lyon area (France, 1.2 M inhabitants) at the census Block Group (BG) scale. We used as environmental indicators ambient air NO2 annual concentrations, noise levels and proximity to green spaces, to industrial plants, to polluted sites and to road traffic. They were synthesized using Multiple Factor Analysis (MFA), a data-driven technique without a priori modeling, followed by a Hierarchical Clustering to create BG classes. The first components of the MFA explained, respectively, 30, 14, 11 and 9% of the total variance. Clustering in five classes group: (1) a particular type of large BGs without population; (2) BGs of green residential areas, with less negative exposures than average; (3) BGs of residential areas near midtown; (4) BGs close to industries; and (5) midtown urban BGs, with higher negative exposures than average and less green spaces. Other numbers of classes were tested in order to assess a variety of clustering. We present an approach using statistical factor and cluster analyses techniques, which seem overlooked to assess cumulative exposure 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.Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology advance online publication, 24 September 2014; doi:10.1038/jes.2014.66.

Résumé : International audience
Context : Functional - structural models (FSM) of tree growth have great potential in forestry, but their development, calibration and validation are hampered by the difficulty of collecting experimental data at organ scale for adult trees. Due to their simple architecture and morphological properties, " model plants " such as Cecropia sciadophylla are of great interest to validate new models and methodologies, since exhaustive descriptions of their plant structure and mass partitioning can be gathered. * Aims : Our objective was to develop a model-based approach to analysing the influence of environmental conditions on the dynamics of trophic competition within C. sciadophylla trees. * Methods : We defined an integrated environmental factor that includes meteorological medium-frequency variations and a relative index representing the local site conditions for each plant. This index is estimated based on model inversion of the GreenLab FSM using data from 11 trees for model calibration and 7 trees for model evaluation. * Results : The resulting model explained the dynamics of biomass allocation to different organs during the plant growth, according to the environmental pressure they experienced. * Perspectives : By linking the integrated environmental factor to a competition index, an extension of the model to the population level could be considered.

Résumé : Tree mortality in tropical forests is a complex ecological process for which modelling approaches need to be improved to better understand, and then predict, the evolution of tree mortality in response to global change. The mortality model introduced here computes an individual probability of dying for each tree in a community. The mortality model uses the ontogenetic stage of the tree because youngest and oldest trees are more likely to die. Functional traits are integrated as proxies of the ecological strategies of the trees to permit generalization among all species in the community. Data used to parametrize the model were collected at Paracou study site, a tropical rain forest in French Guiana, where 20,408 trees have been censused for 18 years. A Bayesian framework was used to select useful covariates and to estimate the model parameters. This framework was developed to deal with sources of uncertainty, including the complexity of the mortality process itself and the field data, especially historical data for which taxonomic determinations were uncertain. Uncertainty about the functional traits was also considered, to maximize the information they contain. Four functional traits were strong predictors of tree mortality: wood density, maximum height, laminar toughness and stem and branch orientation, which together distinguished the light-demanding, fast-growing trees from slow-growing trees with lower mortality rates. Our modelling approach formalizes a complex ecological problem and offers a relevant mathematical framework for tropical ecologists to process similar uncertain data at the community level.

Résumé : International audience
Evidence of the impact of exposure to low levels of lead on children's health is increasing. Residential floor dust is the assumed origin of lead exposure by young children. In this study, we estimate the contribution of different lead sources to household interior floor dust contamination. We also estimate the within-home variability of interior floor dust lead loadings. A multilevel model was developed based on data collected in a French survey in 2008-2009 (484 housing units, 1834 rooms). Missing data were handled by multiple imputation using chained equations. The intra-home correlation between interior floor Log dust lead loadings was approximately 0.6. Dust lead from the landing of an apartment, mostly originating outside the building, was the major contributor to interior floor dust lead. Secondary contributors included the lead-based paint on exterior railings, track-in of the exterior soil of the children's play area into the dwelling, smoking inside the home, demolition of nearby old buildings and sites of pollution in the vicinity. Interior lead-based paint contaminated interior floor dust only in old and non-renovated dwellings. To reduce interior floor dust lead levels in the general population of dwellings, common areas should be maintained, and track-in from the outside should be limited as much as possible.

Résumé : Avec la centrale de Bouillante, la Guadeloupe possède le seul site français de géothermie haute énergie conventionnelle. Le principe de fonctionnement est simple : des forages de production artésiens permettent la remontée naturelle d'une saumure à haute température. En surface la baisse de pression entraîne la vaporisation du fluide produit. Vapeur et eau sont ensuite séparées. La vapeur qui emmagasine une partie du contenu énergétique du fluide est turbinée .pour la production d'électricité. L'eau chaude n'est pas exploitée. Une partie est rejetée à la mer après refroidissement, l'autre est réinjectée dans le réservoir. Le réservoir est un milieu perméable (roches fracturées) rempli d'une saumure dont les conditions de température et pression sont très variables. La présence de fumerolles en surface atteste que certaines zones sont diphasiques sur le pourtour du champ, aux conditions atmosphériques. Lorsque l'on considère la source de chaleur du système hydrothermal, on doit prendre en compte des gammes de température et pressions pouvant aller jusqu'à 1000°C et une centaine de MPa avec un fluide potentiellement supercritique. Le problème est défini par les équations de conservation de la masse et de l'énergie, par la loi de Darcy et par les lois d'état obtenues à partir d'une implémentation libre des tables d'état IAPWS-IF97 (Freesteam). On rajoutera ultérieurement une loi de conservation du sel et les tables thermodynamiques associées pour modéliser le comportement de la saumure exploitée à Bouillante. On a choisi comme variables principales la pression et l'enthalpie pour des raisons de stabilité par rapport aux lois d'états. Les équations étant essentiellement hyperboliques on a retenu des schémas volumes finis pour la discrétisation. À ce jour nous testons différentes méthodes dans le but de comprendre le comportement des équations dans le cadre de la mise en place du champ géothermal à l'échelle géologique (" état naturel " du champ).
