Responses of two scleractinian corals to cobalt pollution and ocean acidification

The effects of ocean acidification alone or in combination with warming on coral metabolism have been extensively investigated, whereas none of these studies consider that most coral reefs near shore are already impacted by other natural anthropogeni...

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...

Morphology and distribution of dolines on ultramafic rocks from airborne LiDAR data: the case of southern Grande Terre in New Caledonia (SW Pacific)

Dolines are closed geomorphological depressions which are surface manifestations of karstic systems. Usually developed on limestones, they also typify the morphology of the New Caledonian landscape, particularly on the southern massif of the main isl...

La mer et l'océan porteurs d'éthique

This article has for objective to put forward the ethical values of the sea and the ocean. After a reminder(abs of the marine origin of life on earth and what the human always carries in him tracks of this origin, we underline several characteristics...

Analyses of amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP) indicate rapid radiation of Diospyros species (Ebenaceae) endemic to New Caledonia

Background : Radiation in some plant groups has occurred on islands and due to the characteristic rapid pace of phenotypic evolution, standard molecular markers often provide insufficient variation for phylogenetic reconstruction. To resolve relation...

Structural and floristic diversity of mixed tropical rain forest in New Caledonia : new data from the New Caledonian Plant Inventory and Permanent Plo...

Aims: To describe the structural and floristic diversity of New Caledonian mixed tropical rain forest and investigate its environmental determinants. Location: New Caledonia (SW Pacific), a biodiversity hotspot. Methods: Structural (stem density, bas...

Evaluation of transgenerational isotope labeling of embryonic otoliths in a coral reef damselfish with single and repeated injections of enriched (137...

Quantifying the larval dispersal component of population connectivity is extremely challenging due to the many difficulties associated with directly observing larvae in their marine environment. Transgenerational isotope labeling is a recent empirica...

Accounting for the indirect area effect in stacked species distribution models to map species richness in a montane biodiversity hotspot

Aim Understanding how species richness is distributed is a critical prerequisite to implement efficient conservation strategies in biodiversity hotspots. Stacked species distribution models (S-SDMs) provide new opportunities to map species richness, ...

Heterotrophic bacterial production and metabolic balance during the VAHINE mesocosm experiment in the New Caledonia lagoon

Studies investigating the fate of diazotrophs through the microbial food web are lacking, although N-2 fixation can fuel up to 50% of new production in some oligotrophic oceans. In particular, the role played by heterotrophic prokaryotes in this tran...

Socioeconomic and environmental determinants of dengue transmission in an urban setting : an ecological study in Noumea, New Caledonia

Background Dengue is a mosquito-borne virus that causes extensive morbidity and economic loss in many tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Often present in cities, dengue virus is rapidly spreading due to urbanization, climate change and in...
