High‐resolution 3D forest structure explains ecomorphological trait variation in assemblages of saproxylic beetles
2022
1. Climate, topography and the 3D structure of forests are major drivers affecting local species communities. However, little is known about how the specific functional traits of saproxylic (wood-living) beetles, involved in the recycling of wood, might be affected by those environmental characteristics. 2. Here, we combine ecological and morphological traits available for saproxylic beetles and airborne laser scanning (ALS) data in Bayesian trait-based joint species distribution models to study how traits drive the distributions of more than 230 species in temperate forests of Europe. 3. We found that elevation (as a proxy for temperature and precipitation) and the proportion of conifers p…
Localizing Global Solidarity: Humanitarian Aid in Lesvos
2021
The so-called “refugee crisis” in Lesvos, Greece provides a poignant example of situated, local suffering that has called for the coordination of global resources to provide relief. Some of the first to respond were local and international Citizen Initiatives for Global Solidarity (CIGS). While a growing role for CIGS has been interpreted as a call for more global involvement, arguments for the increased localization of relief efforts suggest the need for aid agents to maintain a reflexive awareness of the potential for an influx of outside assistance to disempower those most affected. We argue that barriers to implementing the localization of humanitarian aid can be better understood by po…
. New ground-based lidar enables volcanic CO2 flux measurements
2015
AbstractThere have been substantial advances in the ability to monitor the activity of hazardous volcanoes in recent decades. However, obtaining early warning of eruptions remains challenging, because the patterns and consequences of volcanic unrests are both complex and nonlinear. Measuring volcanic gases has long been a key aspect of volcano monitoring since these mobile fluids should reach the surface long before the magma. There has been considerable progress in methods for remote and in-situ gas sensing, but measuring the flux of volcanic CO2—the most reliable gas precursor to an eruption—has remained a challenge. Here we report on the first direct quantitative measurements of the volc…

Financing of development and the international monetary system
1994
Three categories of developing countries must be distinguished. Of these, one cannot constitute either sufficient domestic savings, or a balance of trade surplus, which would allow it to finance its development. This same category which has no possibility^ to pay back its debts doesn't have a good standing among the borrowing countries, on the international financial market. International organizations don't have sufficient funds to face up tothe needs of these countries. Therefore, the current international monetary system is not favorable to these countries. Consequently, a reform of the international monetary system is necessary. This reform should make the study of international liquidi…
El aprendizaje servicio: una experiencia de participación y compromiso
2011
El Aprendizaje Servicio es una metodología innovadora que integra el servicio a la comunidad con el aprendizaje de contenidos, habilidades y valores. Desde el aprendizaje servicio se vincula la enseñanza a la vida misma, abriendo las puertas de la escuela a la comunidad. Se trata de aprender ayudando y de ayudar mientras se aprende. Este aprendizaje puesto en práctica tiene unos fines solidarios que a su vez mejoran la calidad de vida de la comunidad. Service Learning is an innovative methodology that integrates service to the community with the learning of content, skills and values. From service learning, teaching is linked to life itself, opening the doors of the school to the community.…
Typologie des enclos dans les forêts du Châtillonnais (Côte d'Or)
2014
Alors que de nombreux parcellaires sous forêts sont révélés par le Lidar et le plus souvent attribués à la période gallo-romaine, les parcellaires du Châtillonnais étudiés à travers les habitats par différents moyens ( relevés GPS, indices Lidar et prospections pédestres) donnent des indices d'une occupation plus ancienne. Ces habitats appréhendés par les structures externes en élévation se répartissent en groupes distincts par la forme de l'enclos qui les entourent, la présence ou non d'une construction en pierres. Pour une partie des enclos de forme quadrangulaire, la spécificité du matériel recueilli oriente vers une fonction cultuelle.
