Résumé : International audience
BACKGROUND: Although widely used, area-based deprivation indices remain sensitive to urban-rural differences as such indices are usually standardised around typical urban values. There is, therefore, a need to determine to what extent available deprivation indices can be used legitimately over both urban and rural areas. METHODS: This study was carried out in Brittany, France, a relatively affluent region that contains deep rural areas. Among the 1,736 residential census block groups (IRIS) composing the Brittany region, 1,005 (57.9%) are rural. Four deprivation indices were calculated: two scores (Carstairs and Townsend) developed in the UK and two more recent French measures (Havard and Rey). Two standardisation levels were considered: all of the IRIS and only the urban IRIS of the region. Internal validity (Kappa coefficients and entropy values) and external validity (relationship with colorectal cancer screening [CCS] attendance) were investigated. RESULTS: Regardless of the deprivation measure used, wealthy areas are mostly clustered in the West and at the outskirts of major towns. Carstairs and Rey scores stand out by all evaluation criteria, capturing both urban and rural deprivation. High levels of agreements were found across standardisation levels (κ = 0.96). The distributions of deprivation scores were balanced across urban and rural areas, and high Shannon entropy values were observed in the capital city (≥0.93). Similar and significant negative trends were observed between CCS attendance and both deprivation indices, independent of the degree of urbanisation. CONCLUSIONS: These results provide support, despite potential sociological objections, for the use of a compromise index that would facilitate comparisons and interpretations across urban and rural locations in public health research.

Résumé : International audience
The increased use of pesticides has caused concern over the possible direct association of exposure to combinations of these compounds with bee health problems. There is growing proof that bees are regularly exposed to mixtures of agrochemicals, but most research has been focused on managed bees living in farmland, whereas little is known about exposure of wild bees, both in farmland and urban habitats. To determine exposure of wild bumblebees to pesticides in agricultural and urban environments through the season, specimens of five different species were collected from farms and ornamental urban gardens in three sampling periods. Five neonicotinoid insecticides, thirteen fungicides and a pesticide synergist were analysed in each of the specimens collected. In total, 61% of the 150 individuals tested had detectable levels of at least one of the compounds, with boscalid being the most frequently detected (35%), followed by tebuconazole (27%), spiroxamine (19%), carbendazim (11%), epoxiconazole (8%), imidacloprid (7%), metconazole (7%) and thiamethoxam (6%). Quantifiable concentrations ranged from 0.17 to 54.4 ng/g (bee body weight) for individual pesticides. From all the bees where pesticides were detected, the majority (71%) had more than one compound, with a maximum of seven pesticides detected in one specimen. Concentrations and detection frequencies were higher in bees collected from farmland compared to urban sites, and pesticide concentrations decreased through the season. Overall, our results show that wild bumblebees are exposed to multiple pesticides when foraging in agricultural and urban landscapes. Such mixtures are detected in bee tissues not just during the crop flowering period, but also later in the season. Therefore, contact with these combinations of active compounds might be more prolonged in time and widespread in the environment than previously assumed. These findings may help to direct future research and pesticide regulation strategies to promote the conservation of wild bee populations.

Résumé : In this paper, we consider the consolidation of consumption as prime stage of the production process and the diffusion of new forms of commerce in the city, as foundations for analyzing the urban space reproduction process in the contemporary period. Having as research place the metropolis of Sao Paulo - Brazil, we conducted an analysis and some thoughts on the place of commerce and consumption of luxury goods in the urban space reproduction process, analyzed from the perspective of the extended reproduction of capital.
En este trabajo, consideramos que la consolidación del consumo como etapa primaz del proceso de producción y la difusión de las nuevas formas de comercio en la ciudad, están en la base para analizar el proceso de reproducción del espacio urbano en el período contemporáneo. La metrópolis de São Paulo – Brasil, es el local de los análisis y reflexiones sobre el lugar del comercio y el consumo de bienes de lujo en la reproducción del espacio urbano, considerando la reproducción del capital.

Résumé : International audience
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Climate change poses unprecedented challenges, ranging from global and local policy challenges to personal and social action. Heat-related deaths are largely preventable, but interventions for the most vulnerable populations need improvement. Therefore, the prior identification of high risk areas at the community level is required to better inform planning and prevention. We aimed to demonstrate a simple and flexible conceptual framework relying upon satellite thermal data and other digital data with the goal of easily reproducing this framework in a variety of urban configurations. RESULTS: The study area encompasses Rennes, a medium-sized French city. A Landsat ETM + image (60 m resolution) acquired during a localized heatwave (June 2001) was used to estimate land surface temperature (LST) and derive a hazard index. A land-use regression model was performed to predict the LST. Vulnerability was assessed through census data describing four dimensions (socio-economic status, extreme age, population density and building obsolescence). Then, hazard and vulnerability indices were combined to deliver a heatwave health risk index. The LST patterns were quite heterogeneous, reflecting the land cover mosaic inside the city boundary, with hotspots of elevated temperature mainly observed in the city center. A spatial error regression model was highly predictive of the spatial variation in the LST (R2 = 0.87) and was parsimonious. Three land cover descriptors (NDVI, vegetation and water fractions) were negatively linked with the LST. A sensitivity analysis (based on an image acquired on July 2000) yielded similar results. Southern areas exhibited the most vulnerability, although some pockets of higher vulnerability were observed northeast and west of the city. The heatwave health risk map showed evidence of infra-city spatial clustering, with the highest risks observed in a north--south central band. Another sensitivity analysis gave a very high correlation between 2000 and 2001 risk indices (r = 0.98, p < 10-12). CONCLUSIONS: Building on previous work, we developed a reproducible method that can provide guidance for local planners in developing more efficient climate impact adaptations. We recommend, however, using the health risk index together with hazard and vulnerability indices to implement tailored programs because exposure to heat and vulnerability do not require the same prevention strategies.

Résumé : El desarrollo del turismo de masas en Canarias se inició a principios de la década de los años sesenta del siglo XX. El modelo adoptado fue coetáneo y muy semejante al de otras zonas litorales del Estado español, que se vieron afectadas por un intenso proceso de urbanización. Acutalmente, el perfil del turismo que nos visita nos indica la preferencia de los centroeuropeos por este destino, predominantemente, de los alemanes y británicos. En cuanto a la oferta turística, la política de los tour-operadores, los factores medio-ambientales y patrimoniales, así como el apoyo de las instituciones y de los empresarios han sido decisivos. Por ello, este sector se ha convertido en el motor de la economía del Archipiélago.
Le développement du tourisme de masses dans les Îles Canaries a commencé au début des années 1960. Le modèle adopté repose sur les mêmes logiques que les aménagements touristiques des littoraux méditerranéens espagnols qui ont abouti à d’intenses processus d’urbanisation. Actuellement, la fréquentation touristique de l’archipel indique la préférence des clientèles de l’Ouest-européen, surtout des allemandes et britanniques. Le tourisme s’est affirmé comme le véritable moteur de l’économie de l’archipel.
The development of mass tourism in the Canary Islands started in middle of the 20th century, at the beginning of the 60’s. The adopted model was contemporary and very similar to the model of other coastal areas of the Spanish State, which were affected by an intense urbanization process. Nowadays, the profile of the tourism that visits us shows the preference of Centre-European citizens for this destiny, predominately German and British. As regards the tourist offer, the tour-operators policy, the environmental and patrimonial factors, as well as the institutional and managerial support have been definitive. That’s why this sector has become the motor of the archipelago’s economy.

Résumé : International audience
The international symposium on Urban Growth and Natural Hazards, in particular in Developing Countries was held in the Université Blaise-Pascal, Clermont-Ferrand (France) on December 2 and 3, 1994. This meeting brought together about 70 researchers, Ph. D. students, and professionals from France and 12 other countries, representing universities, research agencies, as well as government and private companies. The symposium aimed to gather specialists who are engaged and acting in programmes on hazard appraisal, risk prevention and urban management in the city environment. These people compared experiences acquired in two different fields: on the one hand urban growth and its consequences, and on the other hand, natural hazards and their effects, in particular in developing countries.Three themes correspond to the three sessions of the symposium. (1) Natural hazards and environmental factors: inventory, diagnostic and classification, (2) Vulnerability of urban society and environment: concepts, approaches, and classification, (3) Tools for urban risk prevention and risk management in case of crisis and catastrophes.

Résumé : International audience
The development of the mine, gas and oil extraction in the Eastern Venezuela (Oriente and Guayana regions) and the Far Eastern (Oriental Siberia) is characterized by the emergence of pioneer small and medium cities during the last fifty years and an emerging process of metropolisation since 2000 (Yakutsk, Ciudad Guayana). In Eastern Venezuela, the urbanization is partially planned, generally “spontaneous”. In Yakutia, dynamics of urbanization is planned. In the both cases, urban dynamics is driven by the exploitation of the natural resources and the immigration. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, some mining towns disappeared in the 1990 and 2000. Since the beginning of the 2010’s mining urban regions are under a double process of territorial integration with Russian Europe and Asia. In Venezuela, small and medium sized cities are growing with the emergence of new mining territories and the exploitation of the Orinoco Belt (extra heavy oil). This article analyses the main territorial dynamics of these small and medium sized cities.

Résumé : International audience
In this study, we propose to analyze the limits of mass tourism in the French Antilles, specifically the decline of tourism, economic limits, and ecological degradation). The recognition of these limits is overdue, and signals a need to define another model for tourism development.The popular coastal sector in the south of Martinique has been subject new regulations to protect marine resources. These regulations require the development of new practices and a greater level of awareness for tourists, for example, around coral reefs and mangroves. Ecotourism programs aim to demonstrate to visitors the forests rich natural resources and biodiversity in general. It also features the inclusion of small rural businesses that benefit from additional sources of revenue as a result of ecotourism.The situation in the French Antilles is complex: Urbanization is fraught with serious consequences for the coastline. Tourism products currently being marketed on the island are not competitive (particularly against the political dynamics of the neighbouring island of Dominica). Ecotourism and sustainable tourism are just beginning to develop in such destinations, where tourism has been declining in the last ten years. The situation of the French Antilles is paradoxical in a region that generally has a very favourable tourism. Assessing these limits through the scope of ecotourism helps to highlight the causes of these difficulties and to adapting to new tourism practices.
En el contexto de este estudio, nos proponemos analizar los límites del turismo de masas en las Antillas Francesas (depreciación del turismo, las limitaciones económicas, ecológicas y las molestias). Este reconocimiento de esos límites está en el origen de la conciencia tardía de la necesidad de definir otro modelo de desarrollo turístico.En el sector costero de la más popular, como en el sur de Martinica, se pone en la normativa nuevo lugar para proteger los recursos marinos. Esto requiere el desarrollo de nuevas prácticas y la sensibilización de los turistas, por ejemplo, alrededor de los arrecifes de coral y los manglares.Programas en torno al ecoturismo también tienen como objetivo dar al visitante la riqueza de los recursos forestales y la biodiversidad en general. También incluye las pequeñas empresas rurales que reciben los nuevos ingresos a través del turismo.Pero la situación es compleja en las Antillas francesas: la urbanización está llena de importantes consecuencias para la costa. Productos turísticos que se comercializan actualmente no son competitivos (en particular, contra la dinámica política de la cercana isla de Dominica). Ecoturismo y desarrollo sostenible están empezando a desarrollar en este destino turístico, donde el turismo está en problemas en los últimos diez años.Esta situación es bastante paradójico en un turismo regional muy favorable. Sin lugar a dudas, pensando en el ecoturismo contribuye a identificar los destinos de estos retrasos y dificultades para adaptarse a nuevas prácticas de turismo.
Dans le cadre de cette étude, l’accent est mis sur les limites du tourisme de masse dans les Antilles françaises (dépréciation du tourisme, les contraintes économiques et les nuisances écologiques). La reconnaissance de ces limites est à l'origine de la prise de conscience tardive de la nécessité de définir un autre modèle de développement touristique.Dans le sud de la Martinique, le secteur le plus populaire du littoral, de nouvelles règlementations sont mises en place pour protéger les ressources marines. Cela nécessite le développement de nouvelles pratiques et de sensibilisation des touristes notamment autour des récifs coralliens et les mangroves. Les programmes autour de l'écotourisme visent également à montrer aux visiteurs la richesse des ressources forestières et de la biodiversité en général. Il comprend également les petites entreprises rurales qui reçoivent de nouveaux revenus grâce au tourisme.La situation est complexe dans les Antilles françaises: l'urbanisation est lourde de conséquences importantes sur la côte. Les produits touristiques commercialisés actuellement ne sont pas compétitifs (notamment contre la dynamique politique de l'île voisine de la Dominique). L'écotourisme et le tourisme durable commencent tout juste à se développer dans ces destinations où le tourisme classique est en difficulté depuis une dizaine d’années ; situation assez paradoxale au regard du dynamisme de ce secteur d’activité dans la région.

Résumé : International audience
In French Polynesia the cases of leprosy are individually severe but the endemy itself always stood in low limits. The intensive use of modern treatments since 1950 have been making the eredication reasonably possible in the future. However the brutal demographic increase, the deep upsetting of the society and the important migrations made propitious conditions in the urbanized area for the advent of a new centre of infection. The result seems to be an increase of leprosy in the territory.

Résumé : Few years ago, proliferations of the green seaweed Enteromorpha have been noticed on sorne beaches of the southem coast of Martinique (American French Island). A study, in the year 1992, shows that Enteromorpha has a seasonal development, that nitrogen is the limiting factor, and that its principal feeding cornes from urban discharges thrown away directly into growing areas.
Certaines plages de la côte sud de Martinique voient apparaître depuis quelques années des échouages gênants de l'algue verte Enteromorpha. Une étude, réalisée en 1992, montre que le cycle de développement est saisonnier, que l'élément limitant est l'azote, et que la principale alimentation des proliférations d'algues vertes provient de rejets domestiques directs dans les zones de production.

Résumé : En 2003 des mesures au spectromètre IR à Transformée de Fourier (FTIR) ont permis d'identifier et de mesurer les COV émis par la décharge à ciel ouvert de la Gabarre, principale de l'île Guadeloupe, située entre une zone urbaine et une mangrove. Ces COV ont été retrouvés (2004) la nuit dans les cités, justifiant les plaintes des riverains. Dans le cadre de cette thèse, des mesures au spectromètre de masse portatif MS 200 ont validé ces résultats du FTIR. De nouvelles mesures au MS 200 ont été menées dans toute la zone de la décharge. Les cités concernées étant à l'opposé du flux synoptique d'Alizés-Est, les facteurs météorologiques permettant la dispersion et le transport des COV de la décharge vers la zone urbaine ont été recherchés. La diminution nocturne de l'intensité des Alizés au dessus de l'ile peut laisser place à des phénomènes locaux tels les brises. L'idée d'une brise terre-mer a été éliminée. Un maillage autou~ de la décharge (cités et mangrove) avec 8 thermomètres a révélé un îlot de chaleur urbain nocturnegénérant une brise thermique d'environ Ims- I (mesurée et calculée). Avec les radiosondages Météo France et un SODAR installé dans la décharge, une très forte stabilité dans les basses couches atmosphériques de la couche limite nocturne avec une inversion de surface d'environ 120mvv apparait. Ces facteurs expliquent la pollution des cités par les COV de la décharge, Un modèlevGaussien en tenant compte a été validé par les mesures de COV.vCette étude peut être étendue à d'autres décharges à ciel ouvert et à d'autres types de traitement de polluants de décharge.
In 2003, the VOC emissions coming from "La Gabarre", the main open landfill in Guadeloupe, located in-between an urban area and a mangrove, were identified and quantified with a portable FTIR spectrometer. In 2004, COVs found at nighttime in the urban area nearby confirmed why residents complain about. As part of this thesis, portable mass spectrometer MS 200 measurements validated these FTIR figures. New systematic SM measurements have been carried on around the landfill. Since the polluted urban area stands on the opposite way of the East Trade winds synoptic flux, aIl the weather factors likely to scatter and transport the dump COVs were scrutinized. At night, the strength of the Trade winds decreases over Guadeloupe, which may give way to local phenomena such as breezes. The occurrence of land/sea breeze was eliminated. A close surveying surrounding the landfill with 8 thermometers both in the projects and in the mangrove revealed an urban heat island causing thermal breezes of about lms-l (measured and calculated). Using soundings from Meteo France, and a SODAR inside the dump, we found a great stability of the night boundary layer with a surface inversion near 120m. Pollution of the nearby urban area with landfill COVs is elucidatcd by the above factors. A transport Gaussian model is in agreement with COV measurements. This study can be extended to different open landfills and different types of polluting matters processes in dumps

Résumé : International audience
The widely occurring degradation product aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) is a result of glyphosate and amino-polyphosphonate degradation. Massive use of the parent compounds leads to the ubiquity of AMPA in the environment, and particularly in water. The purpose of this review is to summarize and discuss current insights into AMPA formation, transport, persistence and toxicity. In agricultural soils, AMPA is concentrated in the topsoil, and degrades slowly in most soils. It can reach shallow groundwater, but rarely managed to enter deep groundwater. AMPA is strongly adsorbed to soil particles and moves with the particles towards the stream in rainfall runoff. In urban areas, AMPA comes from phosphonates and glyphosate in wastewater. It is commonly found at the outlets of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP). Sediments tend to accumulate AMPA, where it may be biodegraded. Airborne AMPA is not negligible, but does wash-out with heavy rainfall. AMPA is reported to be persistent and can be biologically degraded in soils and sediments. Limited photodegradation in waters exists. AMPA mainly has its sources in agricultural leachates, and urban wastewater effluents. The domestic contribution to urban loads is negligible. There is a critical lack of epidemiological data - especially on water exposure - to understand the toxicological effects, if any, of AMPA on humans. Fortunately, well operated water treatment plants remove a significant proportion of the AMPA from water, even though there are not sufficient regulatory limits for metabolites.

Résumé : International audience
BACKGROUND: Few studies have considered using environmental amenities to explain social health inequalities.Nevertheless, Green spaces that promote good health may have an effect on socioeconomic health inequalities. In developed countries, there is considerable evidence that green spaces have a beneficial effect on the health of urban populations and recent studies suggest they can have a positive effect on pregnancy outcomes. To investigate the relationship between green spaces and the spatial distribution of infant mortality taking account neighborhood deprivation levels. METHODS: The study took place in Lyon metropolitan area, France. All infant deaths that occurred between 2000 and 2009 were geocoded at census block level. Each census block was assigned greenness and socioeconomic deprivation levels. The spatial--scan statistic was used to identify high risk cluster of infant mortality according to these neighborhood characteristics. RESULTS: The spatial distribution of infant mortality was not random with a high risk cluster in the south east of the Lyon metropolitan area (p<0.003). This cluster disappeared (p=0.12) after adjustment for greenness level and socioeconomic deprivation, suggesting that these factors explain part of the spatial distribution of infant mortality. These results are discussed using a conceptual framework with 3 hypothetical pathways by which green spaces may have a beneficial effect on adverse pregnancy outcomes: (i) a psychological pathway, (ii) a physiological disruption process and (iii) an environmental pathway. CONCLUSIONS: These results add some evidence to the hypothesis that there is a relationship between access to green spaces and pregnancy outcomes but further research is required to confirm this.
