Guenon Radiation is Enriched by a New Species that Demonstrates an Evolutionary Complexity with Which we are yet to Become Familiar
2012
th September described this discovery to the scientific community (1). As is becoming increasingly frequent these days, given the high number of scientific articles, the media news reached us faster than the scientific information. The area known as TL2, a few hundred km as the crow flies south- west from the city of Kisangani, famous for its manufacturing, and important port on the Zaire river, is still uncontaminated and houses several important endemisms. This new species, studied in the area since 2007, on the basis of first sightings by the inhabitants of the zone and local hunters, has been named Cercopithecus lomamiensis. C.lomamiensis (CLO) is a tree-dweller and has been described i…
Etude des mortiers de la citadelle d’Amiens

Complémentarité des données de télédétection pour l'analyse des transformations de l'occupation du sol dans des zones humides urbaines. Application a…
2008
International audience; Dans le cadre d'un programme ECOS-Nord, notre étude analyse les transformations récentes de l'occupation du sol sur deux zones humides urbaines : les hortillonnages d'Amiens et les chinampas de Mexico. Malgré des contextes différents, ces deux espaces sont les supports d'usages et de dynamiques très similaires : des techniques identiques d'agriculture sur l'eau et un déclin de l'activité agricole au XXe siècle au profit de celle des loisirs. L'objectif est double : identifier et quantifier les changements sur chacun des sites, puis les confronter de façon à mettre en évidence les points communs et les spécificités locales, tant dans la nature des changements, que dan…
Discordances entre mémoire et histoire. Un exemple : le congrès d'Amiens (1906)
2012
Memory and history are sometimes a strange couple. A striking illustration is given by the French Unionism in the twentieth century. Some events - 1906, 1920, 1936, 1947, 1968 ... - are engraved in the "memories" and they have founded a collective identity. However, taking the example of the CGT Congress of Amiens in 1906, several dimensions - a priori essential - of this "memory" can be discussed: the importance of the strike, the relationship between parties and unions, the historical weakness of the French unionism. Historical data are not consistent with these representations usually carried about French unionism before 1914. One can wonder : would not it be the same discordance about t…
