How costly are debt crises?
2011
The aim of this paper is to assess the short- and medium-term impact of debt crises on GDP. Using an unbalanced panel of 154 countries from 1970 to 2008, the paper shows that debt crises produce significant and long-lasting output losses, reducing output by about 10 percent after eight years. The results also suggest that debt crises tend to be more detrimental than banking and currency crises. The significance of the results is robust to different specifications, identification and endogeneity checks, and datasets.

A Review on "Lyricism and Chinese Modern Poetics" by Zhang Songjian
2015
La recensione mette in luce il nodo focale della ricerca dello studioso cinese Zhang Songjian nella sua analisi sul Modernismo nella poesia cinese degli anni '40. Lo studioso innova l'ambito della ricerca introducendo i concetti di "lyricism", "anti-lyricism" e "deep lyricism" che contribuiscono ad aprire nuove prospettive nel dialogo critico Occidente-Oriente sulla poesia cinese. The review underlines the focus of the research of the Chinese scholar Zhang Songjian in his analysis of Chinese poetry Modernism of the 40s. His innovative research is based on the concepts of "lyricism", "anti-lyricism" and "deep-lyricism" that contribute the opening of new perspectives in the Western-Eastern di…

City gates of Augustodunum and their architectural models (Gaul, Italy, Western Provinces of the Roman Empire)
2013
Augustodunum, civitas Aeduorum, roman city founded under the reign of Augustus, was equipped with four roman city gates : the gate of Arroux and the gate of Saint André, both well preserved, the gate of Saint Andoche which sole remaining part is a flanking tower, and the gate of Rome, destroyed long ago.The heart of this study lies in the stratigraphic reading of those gates structure and in thoughts about the building site of Autun’s city gates operating process. Moreover, since the 16th century, antiquaries, travelers and artists have described in many ways their visits to the roman city gates of Autun. These accounts constitute a major documentary collection of written and iconographical…
Dissolved silica in the Garonne River waters : changes in the weathering dynamics
2000
The major ion chemistry of the Garonne River is indicative of seasonal variations in the weathering dynamics of the drainage basin. Using the geochemical model MEGA for calculation of the contribution of atmospheric CO2 to the total bicarbonate fluxes exported by the Garonne River allows estimations of the concentrations of the major dissolved elements that originate from silicate- and carbonate-rock weathering. The molecular ratio SiO2/Al2O3 was calculated for the 1989–1992 period to identify the main type of weathering in the Garonne River, and montmorillonite was shown to be the major mineral occurring in the weathering products. The seasonal variations of the SiO2/Al2O3 ratio also showe…
Variabilité intra-saisonnière et multi-décennale de la téléconnexion entre les pressions de surface (100°W–50°E ; 30°–70°N) et les ENSO/LNSO (1873–19…

Abstract The relationships between an index of the NINO3.4 region and the wintertime sea level pressure (hereafter SLP) anomalies on the extratropical North Atlantic and the bordering areas (100°W–50°E; 30°–70°N) are studied for 1873–1996. This study emphasizes the need of a careful pooling of months and the multi-decadal variability of the ENSO/LNSO influence on the extratropical North Atlantic. We calculate the mean monthly climate anomalies for the 20 warmest and the 20 coldest NINO3.4 (170°–120°W; 5°N–5°S) years from October to March. The composite of SLP anomalies for the 20 warmest NINO3.4 years shows an anomalous trough centered near 30°W in November–December, and positive (respectiv…
Influence de l'ENSO sur les précipitations de la région à pluies d'hiver d’Afrique du sud.
2012
5 pages; International audience; L'impact de l'ENSO sur la région à pluies d'hiver d'Afrique du Sud a été peu étudié, alors qu’il s’agit d’une zone densément peuplée, grosse exportatrice de produits agricoles, et par ailleurs remarquable par sa biodiversité. La relation ENSO - précipitations d'hiver est analysée à partir de 682 pluviomètres sur la période 1950-1999. Le cumul saisonnier mai-juillet (MJJ) est corrélé positivement et significativement à l'ENSO depuis la rupture climatique de 1976/1977. Les forts cumuls de MJJ durant les événements ENSO résultent de séquences humides plus longues dans la région du Cap et plus fréquentes dans la région au nord de 33°S. Les séquences humides enre…

In vivo and in vitro sensitivity of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm to SL-401, an interleukin-3 receptor targeted biologic agent.
2015
International audience; Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm is an aggressive malignancy derived from plasmacytoid dendritic cells. There is currently no accepted standard of care for treating this neoplasm, and therapeutic strategies have never been prospectively evaluated. Since blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm cells express high levels of interleukin-3 receptor α chain (IL3-Rα or CD123), antitumor effects of the interleukin-3 receptor-targeted drug SL-401 against blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. The cytotoxicity of SL-401 was assessed in patient-derived blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm cell lines (CAL-1 and …
