Suivi et évaluation de la pêche professionnelle au sein d'une Aire Marine Protégée : protocoles d'enquêtes et indicateurs de pression et d'impact...

La surexploitation des ressources halieutiques a conduit à une crise majeure du secteur de la pêche professionnelle. Dans ce contexte, les pêcheries artisanales, et notamment les pêcheries aux petits métiers côtiers, apparaissent comme des mode...

Implementation of an ongoing FAD programme in Curacao (Netherlands Antilles) during the period 1993-2000

In Curacao, deep-water fads with grp surface buoys were developed and tested. The first fad was deployed in 1993. Up to now, a total of 5 fads were deployed at the following depths: 730, 685, 700, 754 and 574 metres. Changes were made to the surface ...

Provenance discrimination of siliciclastic sediments in the middle Okinawa Trough since 30 ka: Constraints from rare earth element compositions

The late Quaternary paleoceanography and paleoenvironment in the Okinawa Trough, East China Sea, have been well reconstructed over the last decade, while in contrast the provenance of terrigenous sediments that have accumulated there remains enigmati...

Community variation in wood density along a bioclimatic gradient on a hyper-diverse tropical island

Aims: Analyse the controversial relationship existing between wood density, precipitation, temperature and aridity, and its importance in shaping forest communities facing drought. Location: New Caledonia (SW Pacific). Methods: We sampled wood densit...

Rainforest and savanna landscape dynamics in New Caledonia : towards a mosaic of stable rainforest and savanna states ?

Stable forested environments can be converted to savanna in response to changes in environmental disturbances. New Caledonia is a biodiversity hotspot; significant ecological and economic resources would be lost if forests were turned into savanna by...

Shift in precipitation regime promotes interspecific hybridization of introduced Coffea species

The frequency of plant species introductions has increased in a highly connected world, modifying species distribution patterns to include areas outside their natural ranges. These introductions provide the opportunity to gain new insight into the im...

Old lineage on an old island : Pixibinthus, a new cricket genus endemic to New Caledonia shed light on gryllid diversification in a hotspot of biodive...

Few studies have focused on the early colonization of New Caledonia by insects, after the re-emergence of the main island, 37 Myr ago. Here we investigate the mode and tempo of evolution of a new endemic cricket genus, Pixibinthus, recently discovere...

Diversité structurale des forêts denses humides de la Province Nord de Nouvelle-Calédonie: de l'arbre au paysage

Dans le contexte des changements globaux, il est primordial de mettre au point des pratiques de gestion durable des forêts tropicales assurant le maintien de services environnementaux clés (e.g., biodiversité, stockage de carbone) et la production...

Ecology, forms and functions of the basal angiosperms from New Caledonia

One of the remarkable characteristics of the New Caledonian flora is the presence of numerous angiosperm lineages recognized as the earliest divergences of the flowering plants, due to their phylogenetic positions. Within these lineages, some species...

Disentangling the processes driving tree community assembly in a tropical biodiversity hotspot (New Caledonia)

Aim Understanding the drivers of community diversity and composition is a major question in ecology, which is of particular significance for the conservation of narrowly distributed taxa facing habitat alteration. In this study, we examined three eco...
