How accessible are coral reefs to people ? A global assessment based on travel time

The depletion of natural resources has become a major issue in many parts of the world, with the most accessible resources being most at risk. In the terrestrial realm, resource depletion has classically been related to accessibility through road net...

Sustainability of exploited marine ecosystems through protected areas: A viability model and a coral reef case study

Overexploitation of marine resources remains a problem worldwide. Many works advocate for the use of marine reserves as a central element of future stock management in a sustainable perspective. In the present paper, we address the influence of prote...

Spatial management of inshore areas: Theory and practice

Coastal uses have deeply evolved these last decades and high anthropogenic pressures on coastal ecosystems have affected the sustainability of these areas with respect to the services and the resources they may provide. Traditional fisheries manageme...

Determination of gender in the pearl oyster pinctada margaritifera

The pearl industry in French Polynesia is based on exploitation of natural stocks of the black-lip pearl oyster (Pinctada margaritifera); it generates an annual turnover of 90 million euros. Improvements in pearl quality need genetic studies to impro...

Polarized Earth's ambient microseismic noise

We quantify, analyze, and characterize the frequency-dependent microseismic noise recorded by worldwide distributed seismic stations. Microseismic noise is generated through the interaction of ocean waves. It is the strongest ambient noise, and it is...

Un bilan de la télédétection appliquée aux milieux coralliens

The aim of this paper is to present in a practical fashion the status of the use of remote sensing for the study of coral reef environments through the analysis of work published in the years 1980-2000. We review the scales of the potential work and ...

Sequence polymorphism-based identification and quantification of Vibrio nigripulchritudo at the species and subspecies level targeting an emerging pat...

In a previous study, we demonstrated the existence of an emerging cluster of Vibrio nigripulchritudo that proved to be associated with shrimp mortality events in New Caledonia. Using sequence polymorphisms evidenced in this previous MultiLocus Sequen...

Blind submarine seismic deconvolution for long source wavelets

In seismic deconvolution, blind approaches must be considered in situations where reflectivity sequence, source wavelet signal, and noise power level are unknown. In the presence of long source wavelets, strong interference among the reflectors contr...

Physiological response of the blue shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris to short-term confinement on a pond bottom

The blue shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris was exposed to pond sediment for 48 h and its physiological response was studied in relation to molt stage. Shrimp were maintained in cages within a semi-intensive pond after 4 months of rearing. Hypoosmoregul...

Acclimatization of massive reef-building corals to consecutive heatwaves

Reef-building corals typically live close to the upper limits of their thermal tolerance and even small increases in summer water temperatures can lead to bleaching and mortality. Projections of coral reef futures based on forecasts of ocean temperat...
