Towards the urbanisation of the Med sea: MSP challenges and opportunities for floating cities between utopia and reality
2023
Anthropogenic climate change effects push us to reimagine human life on the planet confronting extreme living conditions. Droughts, risk of submersion and flooding, saline intrusion, and land scarcity lead to more inhospitable life conditions on land. These demanding risks have led governments to envisage the displacement from the coasts of some cities at significant risk or to think of new settlements for human life, such as floating cities. Floating offshore settlements, reminiscent of the XXth-century architectural utopias, are gaining more and more popularity in contemporary debate and are, in fact, emerging realities in other parts of the globe due to advanced technology. Floating sett…
L'évolution de l'occupation humaine : l'analyse spatiale exploratoire des données.Le problème de l'incertitude et de l'hétérogénéité des données en a…

The analysis of the evolution of the settlement requires a lot of methodological questioning. Despite a frequent use of the spatial analysis methods, few works return to their methodological problems. This article proposes to make a comparison and a discussion around two exploratory statistical methods (the K function of Ripley and the Kernel Density Estimation). It seems that scale, quality and quantity of input data, are three essential parameters to be taken into account so as to lead a spatial analysis in archaeology. In intrinsic way, archaeological data are non homogeneous. For that purpose, our article proposes a multi scalar approach integrating the non homogeneousness character of …
Les frontières de la libre circulation dans le football européen : vers une mondialisation des flux de joueurs?
2005
Les frontières étatiques sont de moins en moins pertinentes pour définir les limites entre territoires souverains. En termes de mobilité des personnes, cependant, bien que parfois déplacées à la périphérie de nouveaux territoires en gestation, elles continuent à jouer un rôle primordial dans le contrôle et la régulation des flux, surtout pour les migrants non qualifiés. Notre article se concentre sur le cas des footballeurs professionnels, une population le plus souvent considérée comme faisant partie d’une élite migratoire bien intégrée dans un marché du travail mondial, pour laquelle les frontières n’ont plus d’importance. En réalité, nous mettons en exergue l’existence de logiques géogra…
Monitoring deforestation and forest degradation linking high-resolution satellite data and field data in the context of REDD+. A case of Tanzania
2017
El principal objetivo de este doctorado es apoyar el desarrollo de un sistema nacional de monitoreo forestal en Tanzania para informar sobre las emisiones actuales e históricas derivadas de la deforestación y la degradación forestal. El marco de la tesis se centra específicamente en el emergente contexto internacional de la iniciativa REDD + (Reducción de Emisiones por Deforestación y Degradación) de las Naciones Unidas, bajo la cual los países pueden obtener subsidios financieros para demostrar que están reduciendo sus emisiones de carbono de tierras forestales con respecto a su práctica histórica reciente. La investigación se centró en cinco áreas de investigación: La parte (1) revisa los…

Autobiographical memory and the self in a single-case of chronic unilateral spatial neglect
2016
International audience; Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is mainly defined as a condition affecting perception and the mental representation of the environment. However, nothing is known about its impact on the ability to mentally represent one's past and on personal identity. We addressed these questions in a case of chronic USN, DR, a 59-year-old right-handed woman, who underwent a variety of measures exploring the self and autobiographical memory (AM). DR showed preserved self-images and her AM performance was only preserved when memories were prompted by her own self-images and not by self-unrelated cues. Our findings are discussed in light of the interconnection between the self and AM.
