Analyse spatiale de l’évolution du risque de gel sur la vigne en Bourgogne-Franche-Comté
2019
The warming undergone by the global climate does not necessarily entail a decrease in frost risk in agriculture/viticulture. Since both plant and climate are likely to evolve under changing environmental conditions, plant vulnerability and the meteorological phenomenon (frost) should be considered jointly when assessing the evolution of frost risk. This study aims at documenting the spatial and temporal frost risk changes in the winegrowing subregions of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. The period between budburst and the last spring frost occurrence date has been considered as the most vulnerable for grapevines. We considered a plant as being stressed by a frost event when the temperature drops be…
Experimental cerebral ischemia in rats increases myocardial vulnerability to ischemia-reperfusion injury ex vivo

Sensitivity of water quality of three contrasted north-eastern French watersheds to climate change (2006-2100) using SWAT model
2015
International audience; The SWAT model has been chosen to assess climate change impacts on water quality of three subbassins ofnorth-eastern France: located on headwaters of three major rivers of France (Loire, Seine and Rhône riversrespectively). These watersheds have a size less than 3000km² and present different hydrogeological andgeological characteristics. Land-use as well as their agricultural practices being also diversified, the threewatersheds studied constitute a relevant experimentation area. The goal of this study is to assess local vulnerability of surface water quality (sediments, nutrients,dissolved oxygen loads) to climate change (2006-2100) following the Representative Conc…
Vulnérabilité territoriale et résiliences: résistances et capacités adaptatives face aux aléas climatiques
2013
Namely inherited by its double "reactive" and "proactive" dimensioning, the multisacalar status of the resilience concept is illustrated here by the storm Xynthia, which occured in France on February 2010. Through designing this disaster as a structural traduction of townplanning dysfunction, resilience appears to formalize a paradigmatic change of natural risk treatment, namely applied to urban development strategies.
La désindustrialisation comme vecteur de vulnérabilité territoriale
2019
La désindustrialisation et les fermetures de sites de production industrielle sont principalement analysés par le biais des mutations des appareils productifs, ou par leurs effets sur les trajectoires individuelles des travailleur·se·s de l’industrie. Nous proposons dans cet article de questionner ces phénomènes en tant que facteur de vulnérabilité des populations et des territoires pris dans leur ensemble.En nous centrant sur la Picardie, qui fut l’une des régions les plus industrielles de France, nous chercherons à caractériser la désindustrialisation des espaces qui la compose en mobilisant des données issues de différentes sources. Nous mettrons ensuite ces indices de la désindustrialis…
Introduction. The territorial dimensions of vulnerabilities
2019
Recouvrant de très nombreuses dimensions, qu’elles soient sanitaires, démographiques, économiques, géographiques, politiques, psychologiques, philosophiques ou encore sociologiques, la vulnérabilité est devenue l’objet de très nombreuses recherches pluri et inter-disciplinaires à l’échelle internationale (Thomas, 2008). Dans une société moderne souvent considérée comme une « société du risque » (Beck, 2001), la vulnérabilité touche des individus ou des groupes sociaux soumis à un contexte ext...
Fragilité, vulnérabilité et ressorts de santé des personnes âgées
2022
National audience; A partir d’observations socio ethnographiques à domicile, cet article explore les conditions d’application des notions de fragilité, vulnérabilité et atouts / ressorts de santé au repérage, au suivi et à la prévention de la perte d’autonomie des personnes âgées. Relevant d’univers différents, ces trois notions offrent des cadres d’analyse et d’intervention complémentaires. La notion de fragilité, dans son acception gériatrique, appartient à l’univers de la maladie ; elle se présente comme une diminution plus ou moins étendue des réserves physiologiques qu’un individu mobilise face à un stress. Les atouts / ressorts de santé se situent d’emblée dans le domaine de la santé,…
Understanding Addiction Using Animal Models
2019
Drug addiction is a neuropsychiatric disorder with grave personal consequences that has an extraordinary global economic impact. Despite decades of research, the options available to treat addiction are often ineffective because our rudimentary understanding of drug-induced pathology in brain circuits and synaptic physiology inhibits the rational design of successful therapies. This understanding will arise first from animal models of addiction where experimentation at the level of circuits and molecular biology is possible. We will review the most common preclinical models of addictive behavior and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each. This includes non-contingent models in whi…
The Italian version of the Depressive Experiences Questionnaire (DEQ): psychometric properties and a contribution to validation on students, communit…
2017
The current study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Italian validation of the Depressive Experiences Questionnaire (DEQ), conceived as a measure of self-criticism and dependency, i.e. two personality factors acting, according to Blatt (2004), as risk factors for depression in particular and psychopathology in general. A series of standardized measures [Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), DEQ, Symptom Checklist-90-R (SCL-90-R), Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory, 3rd edition (MCMI-III)] was administered to three samples (i.e., students, community and clinical). Factorial validity was evaluated along with convergent and predictive validity. In order to evaluate the reliability…
