Alachlor and Bentazone Losses from Subsurface Drainage of Two Soils
2004
International audience; Atrazine (6-chloro-N2-ethyl-N4-isopropyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine) is frequently detected at high concentrations in ground water. Bentazone [3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide] plus alachlor (2-chloro-2',6'-diethyl-N-methoxymethylacetanilide) is a potential herbicide combination used as a substitute for atrazine. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the environmental risk of this blend. Drainage water contamination by bentazone and alachlor was assessed in silty clay (Vertic Eutrochrept) and silt loam (Aquic Hapludalf) soils under the same management and climatic conditions. Drainage volumes and concentrations of alachlor and bent…
Leaching of glyphosate and AMPA under two soil management practices in Burgundy vineyards (Vosne-Romanée, 21-France)
2005
Some drinking water reservoirs under the vineyards of Burgundy are contaminated with herbicides. Thus the effectiveness of alternative soil management practices, such as grass cover, for reducing the leaching of glyphosate and its metabolite, AMPA, through soils was studied. The leaching of both molecules was studied in structured soil columns under outdoor conditions for 1 year. The soil was managed under two vineyard soil practices: a chemically treated bare calcosol, and a vegetated calcosol. After 680 mm of rainfall, the vegetated calcosol leachates contained lower amounts of glyphosate and AMPA (0.02% and 0.03%, respectively) than the bare calcosol leachates (0.06% and 0.15%, respectiv…
Visual exploration of face and facial expression in infancy: A qualitative approach of cognitive and social development
2016
International audience; This article proposes a methodological consideration for the use of "head free" eye-tracking systems, which allowed to extend this technique to the study of infant skills. It explores how the technological developments enable a more qualitative approach, which offers the possibility of considering "how" in addition to "how long" the infant looks at a visual scene, especially the scene of the face.
Prédire le passé et le futur : rôle des représentations motrices dans l'inférence du mouvement
2012
The effectiveness of the visual system is permitted by a complex processing network, which relies on cortical, sub-cortical and peripheral structures. The purpose of this research is to improve the knowledge of the process sustaining the visual perception of motion, and to produce a computational model able to reproduce the features of human visual tracking of a moving object.This work includes an extensive bibliographic research, and a series of experiments. The thesis consists of two parts:The first part pertains to the determination of performance in the "backward" inference of a partially visible movement. It consist of defining the involvement of exogenous information (retinal signals)…
Flexibilité du contrôle moteur dans les mouvements complexes dirigés
2011
The main objective of this thesis is to study the motor flexibility in complex movements when an unexpected event makes the initial motor plan inefficient. In this way, three kinematic and electromyographic studies and a fourth with functional magnetic resonance imaging were realized. (1)The main result of the first study clearly demonstrate that during complex movements express motor corrections in the upper and lower limbs, with latency responses of less than 100 ms, were revealed by contrasting electromyographic activities in perturbed and unperturbed trials. Such findings could indicate that visual on-going movement corrections may be accomplished via fast loops at the level of the uppe…

Altération des performances neuromusculaires après un exercice physique prolongé. Analyse comparée d'une épreuve de marathon et de triathlon
1998
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of a marathon and a triathlon on isometric and dynamic neuromuscular performances. Seven triathletes took part in 3 experimental situations : a 2 h 15 mn triathlon (TRI) (30 min swimming, 60 min cycling and 45 min running), a 2 h 15 mn marathon (MA) and a 45 min isolated run done at triathlon speed. The results showed a reduction of the isometric endurance time for knee extensor muscles (35 % of maximal voluntary contraction) after TRI (41 ± 24 %) and after MA (59 ± 19 %). The height of rise of the center of gravity of the counter-movement jumps (CMJ) was also significantly lower after MA (-12 ± 1 cm) than after TRI (-2,5 0,5 cm). Kinetic ana…
Methodological Considerations for Movement Education Interventions in Natural Environments for Primary School Children: A Scoping Review.
2022
Background: Education is the ideal setting for carrying out projects to improve primary students’ capacities. In recent years, interventions in natural environments have been more frequently proposed, but there is still a lack of standardization, making deeper study of the topic necessary. This review aims to report on what previous scientific research has been carried out, and eventually, to propose standard operating procedures for future interventions. Methods: This is a scoping review that adopted the PRISMA guidelines. Primary school children have been included, and the interventions had to be proposed adopting nature as the primary element of the learning process. Results: A total of …
Acu kustību iekārtu IViewX RED500 un EyeLink precizitātes salīdzinājums
2019
Darbs ir uzrakstīts latviešu valodā uz 34 lapaspusēm. Tas satur 23 attēlus, 28 atsauces uz literatūras avotiem. Darba mērķis ir novērtēt Latvijas Universitātē Optometrijas un redzes zinātnes nodaļā pieejamo acu kustību iekārtu IViewX RED500 un EyeLink 1000 Plus precizitāti. Iekārtu precizitāte tika novērtēta, izmantojot 13 pelēkus diska formas stimulus ar ārējo rādiusu 0,8° un iekšējo – 0,6°, kas tika izvietoti uz balta un melna fona. Dalībniekiem tika sniegts uzdevums apskatīt visus 13 stimulus vienu pēc otra. Iegūtie rezultāti norāda, ka IViewX RED500 un EyeLink 1000 Plus acu kustību iekārtu precizitāte nav būtiski atšķirīga. Novērots EyeLink 1000 Plus precizitātes samazinājās apskatot ek…
Notch and Numb are required for normal migration of peripheral glia in Drosophila
2006
Abstract A prominent feature of glial cells is their ability to migrate along axons to finally wrap and insulate them. In the embryonic Drosophila PNS, most glial cells are born in the CNS and have to migrate to reach their final destinations. To understand how migration of the peripheral glia is regulated, we have conducted a genetic screen looking for mutants that disrupt the normal glial pattern. Here we present an analysis of two of these mutants: Notch and numb. Complete loss of Notch function leads to an increase in the number of glial cells. Embryos hemizygous for the weak NotchB-8X allele display an irregular migration phenotype and mutant glial cells show an increased formation of …
