« After buying ...before consuming »: a study of accumulation behaviour through the example of red win e consumers
2017
The main objective of this research is to help better understand a transitory behaviour –halfway between wine buying and consuming –namely accumulation. Data is gathered among a sample of 415 consumers, living in the cities of Lyon and Dijon and quantitative analysis is conducted. Respondents were invited to provide informations about Red wine bottles and appellations ’number they own . Socio-demographic variables’ influence on accumulation behaviour is measured and accumulators typology is analyzed : three main profiles have emerged. They are characterized by red wine bottles’ number and appellations owned, age and city of residence.

Characterization of the Etna volcanic emissions through an active biomonitoring technique (moss-bags): Part 1 – Major and trace element composition
2013
Active biomonitoring using moss-bags was applied to an active volcanic environment for the first time. Bioaccumulation originating from atmospheric deposition was evaluated by exposing mixtures of washed and air-dried mosses (Sphagnum species) at 24 sites on Mt. Etna volcano (Italy). Concentrations of major and a large suite of trace elements were analysed by inductively coupled mass and optical spectrometry (ICP-MS and ICP-OES) after total acid digestion. Of the 49 elements analysed those which closely reflect summit volcanic emissions were S, Tl, Bi, Se, Cd, As, Cu, B, Na, Fe, Al. Enrichment factors and cluster analysis allowed clear distinction between volcanogenic, geogenic and anthropo…
