Solar UV-B radiation affects leaf quality and insect herbivory in the southern beech tree Nothofagus antarctica
2004
We examined the effects of solar ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation on plant-insect interactions in Tierra del Fuego (55°S), Argentina, an area strongly affected by ozone depletion because of its proximity to Antarctica. Solar UV-B under Nothofagus antarctica branches was manipulated using a polyester plastic film to attenuate UV-B (uvb-) and an Aclar film to provide near-ambient UV-B (uvb+). The plastic films were placed on both north-facing (i.e., high solar radiation in the Southern Hemisphere) and south-facing branches. Insects consumed 40% less leaf area from north- than from south-facing branches, and at least 30% less area from uvb+ branches than from uvb-branches. The reduced herbivory …

Etudes et emploi : des bénéfices "micro" aux incertitudes "macro"...
2006
Dès lors que l’école a pour finalité de préparer les jeunes générations à entrer dans l’âge adulte, elle inclut nécessairement une dimension professionnelle. Cela peut entraîner une tension avec son autre finalité tout aussi essentielle qui est d’intégrer par un ciment de valeurs communes l’ensemble d’une classe d’âge. Cette tension était pointée par Durkheim dans divers écrits du début du XXe siècle : l’école doit unifier et diversifier, mais diversifier sans aller jusqu’à diviser.
