How abrupt change in surface temperature impacts water cycle over France ?
2022
Along with the rapid warming tendency of the last decades over France, a shift in air temperaturehas been detected in 1987/88, delimiting two main climate periods from 1959 to 2019. Evidence of pre- andpost-shift runoff seasonal differences suggest an impact of this abrupt warming on water cycle evolution. Asyearly precipitation slightly evolve during the studied period, evapotranspiration appears to be one of themain drivers of the hydrological cycle evolution. Spring is marked by a strong increase in evaporativedemand, followed in summer by a rise in water stress and a drying of soil water content. Besides temporaldisparities, this local water cycle evolution depicts different spatial res…
Long-term decrease in Asian monsoon rainfall and abrupt climate change events over the past 6,700 years
2021
Significance The variability of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) is important for the functioning of ecological and societal systems at regional to continental scales, but the long-term evolution and interannual variability of this system is not well understood. Here, we present a stable isotope–based reconstruction of ASM variability covering 4680 BCE to 2011 CE. Superimposed on a gradual drying trend, a rapid drop in mean annual precipitation (>40%) toward persistently drier conditions occurred in ∼1675 BCE. This megadrought caused regional forest deterioration and enhanced aeolian activity affecting Chinese ecosystems. We argue that this abrupt aridification starting ∼2000 BCE triggered wa…
ALIGNEMENT UNI ET TRIDIMENSIONNEL DE MOLÉCULES PAR IMPULSION LASER FEMTOSECONDE
2007
This thesis is devoted to the study of the alignment of linear and asymmetric top molecules generated by an intense laser pulse. In the case of short pulses with respect to molecular rotation, periodic alignment appears in field-free conditions after the extinction of the field. We study theoretically and experimentally the effects of intensity, temperature and polarization of the electric field on produced alignment. If the field is linearly polarized, the interaction leads to the alignment of the most polarizable axis of the molecule. If the field is elliptically polarized, the pulse can generate a simultaneous alignment of the three principal axes of inertia of an asymmetric top molecule…
Modèle des voies réflexes et cérébelleuses, permettant le calcul de fonctions inverses et la commande d'un segment mécanique mobile
2004
14/07/2004; La commande et le contrôle des mouvements des membres par les voies cérébelleuses et réflexes sont modélisées au moyen d'un circuit dont la structure est déduite de contraintes fonctionnelles. 1/ La première contrainte est que les mouvements rapides des membres doivent être précis, quoiqu'ils ne puissent pas être commandés en boucle fermée au moyen de signaux sensoriels. Les voies qui préparent les ordres moteurs doivent donc contenir des fonctions inverses approximées des fonctions biomécaniques du membre et des muscles. Or une telle fonction peut être calculée au moyen de boucles de rétroaction parallèles, dont la structure est comparable à l'anatomie des voies cérébelleuses. …
CAMPANIAN WINE FOR PUNIC SICILY: PETROGRAPHIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES OF GRAECO-ITALIC AMPHORAE FROM PALERMO
2018
This contribution proposes a combination of archaeological fabric analysis and petrographic research applied to the study of 35 sherds of Graeco-Italic amphorae mostly found in Palermo, but also in Pantelleria and Malta (Tab. 1). The provenance identification derived from both approaches gives evidence for the arrival, in North-Western Sicily, of presumable wine amphorae from central-Tyrrhenian Italy since the very late 4th century BC. The production of the majority of the material has been confidentially attributed to the area of the Gulf of Naples/Ischia, but a second large group originates from several, still unidentified production sites to be located along the coastal strip of Campania…
Del comer, el deseo, la palabra y su lugar en la vida
2005
El Génesis pone como primer pecado comer la fruta prohibida. Que se tratara del Árbol del Bien y del Mal, que la promesa de la serpiente hecha a Eva fuera la de que accedería a un saber igual al saber divino, que este pasaje bíblico haya dado lugar a múltiples interpetaciones, incluída la metafórica, la alegórica, no invalidan el hecho de que se habla de una fruta y de que la primer falta fue comer. Aquellos que padecen de obesidad, de bulimia o de atracones saben eso: hay correlación entre comer y falta, se sienten culpables. Comen a escondidas, no se animan a hablar de ello, comunican la sensación de estar en pecado, el relato mismo suele estar impregnado de culpa, a veces hasta…
Fabry Disease With Concomitant Lewy Body Disease
2019
AbstractAlthough Gaucher disease can be accompanied by Lewy pathology (LP) and extrapyramidal symptoms, it is unknown if LP exists in Fabry disease (FD), another progressive multisystem lysosomal storage disorder. We aimed to elucidate the distribution patterns of FD-related inclusions and LP in the brain of a 58-year-old cognitively unimpaired male FD patient suffering from predominant hypokinesia. Immunohistochemistry (CD77, α-synuclein, collagen IV) and neuropathological staging were performed on 100-µm sections. Tissue from the enteric or peripheral nervous system was unavailable. As controls, a second cognitively unimpaired 50-year-old male FD patient without LP or motor symptoms and 3…
