C.; LANSAC-TÔHA,F. A.; BONECKER,C. C.; VELHO,L. F. M. The abundance of cladocerans recorded in plankton samples from the littoral regions of two enviroments (Baía River and Guaraná lake), the Upper Paraná River floodplain and some limnological variables important in controlling their abundance were investigated at three sites in the lake and two in the river, from March/93 to January/94. Abundance was highest in the lake, chiefly during high water. Bosminidae dominated in both environments and hydrological periods (high and low water). Chydoridae were more important in the lake, and Sididae in the river. A higher number of Pearson's correlations significative (p < 0.03) between the densities of the ten most important species and the limnological variables was observed in the river. This suggests that... Tipo: Journal article Palavras-chave: Cladocerans; Littoral; Floodplain; Tropical.

Ostracods were collected on Sargassum sp. from the littoral of São Sebastião, São Paulo State, southeastern Brazil. A new species, Aurila ornellasae, is illustrated and described based on a population with various instars and adult specimens. This is the first living species of this genus described from Brazil. A brief discussion on the systematics of the genus Aurila Pokorný, 1955 and its allied genera is presented.

Completing this presentation, based on the analysis of management plans from different periods, an overview of the recent state of occupation of coastal areas in Martinique is also given. The second part presents four case studies of conflictual situations concerning access to coastal areas, on l and and at sea, considering differents types of activities and decision-making processes.

After a reminder on the program SYSCOLAG (Coastal and Lagoons Systems), of the regulatory and legislative context in territorial economic planning on the coast, we describe the structure of the developed methodological tool. We clarify then the method according to its three main trunk roads: effects of the activities and uses on the economy of the territory, the effects of the activities and uses on the natural environment and the living environment, the evaluation of the interactions between activities and uses. We apply the method exposed in a frame demonstrator by taking the scenario of the lagoon and coastal territory of the Thau Basin (Hérault).

La contamination de l’environnement par des bactéries ou des virus d’origine fécale par le biais des rejets résultant des activités urbaines ou agricoles constitue un risque important pour la santé humaine et une préoccupation pour la pérennité de certains usages en zone littorale. La bactérie Escherichia coli (E. coli) a été retenue comme indicateur de contamination fécale pour évaluer la qualité sanitaire des zones conchylicoles et des zones de baignade et pour établir leur classification. L’étude des bactéries entériques et des marqueurs de l’origine des contaminations fécales dans l'environnement littoral constitue l’essentiel de mes activités de recherche à l’Ifremer.

METROC program (part of the MEDICIS program about study and fate of the chemical contamination in Western Mediterranean Sea) focuses on sources and wastes issued by large metropolis, with the agglomeration of Marseille as a pilot site. This report presents the results of a sampling campaign in rivers and urban discharges in Marseille and on different types of contaminants (metals, PAH, PCB and PBDE) in dissolved and particulate phases, in dry and rain periods. Results show that concentrations of pollutants are greater in Aygalades river (metals and organic contaminants) and in Emissaire 2, sewer overflows and torrents. From the results of the analysis and discharge given by the DEA, we estimated partially the flows of pollutants which show that the first...

The progradation of the shores of the Gallon Bay (Martinique) has been measured based on diachronic mapping analysis. The sedimentary volume which accumulates along the coast and in the bay (under the water surface) is unknown. Erodibility has been surveyed on a square meter scale and extrapolated to the watersheds. The results show that most sediments originate from the farmed surfaces, they are then entrained by the runoff and the Gallon river and deposited along the coast, where the bathymetry and currentology of the bay facilitate sediment retention. The harmful effects of anthropogenic influence in the area are discussed.

This study presents the first results of an ongoing research program that aims to derive thematic maps of the intertidal lagoon of Arcachon (SW Atlantic coast of France) from space imagery. At this stage, we present the results of the tests performed on Formosat-2 imagery. Several classification strategies have been tried with the aim to discriminate the sedimentary facies and the main species of the lagoon. The classes calculated by an optimized unsupervised clustering method, based on simulated annealing global minimization technique, were used to train a supervised classification algorithm. This approach allowed us to derive a bio-sedimentary map which overall accuracy is about 84%. Also, this method has the advantage of describing the fraction of...

Dans le contexte de développement agricole très actif des trente dernières années les marais atlantiques littoraux qui couvrent, pour leur partie endiguée environ 300.000 ha. ont été et continuent d'être soumis à des transformations importantes qui influent sur la circulation et la qualité des eaux de surface. Ce développement, visant à une amélioration de la productivité et à une meilleure intégration de l' activité agricole dans les grands processus économiques, s'est appuyé, là comme ailleurs, sur les intensifications fourragère et surtout céréalière.

The aim of the study is to determine how seawater is used in Ré island marine ponds (Charente-Maritime, France). Thus, we assessed the ecosystem functioning, estimated its historical evolution and determined the most suitable ways to improve current management processes. The knowledge of seawater management is essential to ensure wetland future and meet the numerous interests of wetland stakeholders, especially in term of seawater sharing. Consequently, it is necessary to consider the Ré island marine embanked wetland through its natural as well as human characteristics. Our work followed two research axes. First, a survey and a description of wetland activities were realized through their management types and their water use features, knowing that human...

The wreckage of the tanker "AMOCO CADIZ" on the reefs of PORTSALL was the fourth oil spill in ten years on the coast of Brittany : it also is the largest known oil spill in the world. The patches at sea were driven eastward by westerly winds from March 17 to March 23. 140 Km of coast line was polluted. The oil spreaded more slowly towards the north west, south and north west where it spoiled some 375 Km of touristic sea coast and important fishing grounds. The coastline is six kilometers wide ; it includes islands and large reefs. The local tidal currents are very strong and reach more than three knots, during spring tides which may rise up to nine meters in a rough sea conditions. The turbulence of the water soon disper-sed the slicks and mixed the oil...

Many studies in coastal areas have shown the existence of thin chemical and biological layers. Their thickness and vertical extension are mainly controlled by hydrological and physical forcing. An accurate description of the phytoplankton communities growing within these layers is difficult to obtain without a well-adapted sampling system. A new Fine Scale Sampler (FSS) has been designed in Ifremer in order to study phytoplankton distribution and associated dissolved properties in high stratified water column. This FSS consists in a vertical array of 15 sampling bottles, horizontally laid with 20 cm intervals. Data acquired from a CTD and Fluorescence probe provide a precise FSS positioning at the depth of highest density gradient or at chlorophyll a...

This paper examines existing measures taken to protect the coastal zones of the Mediterranean Sea and assesses their success. A summary of the main pressures facing these zones is given, followed by an analysis of the legislation covering coastal zone development in ten countries: Algeria, Croatia, Egypt, France, Israel, Italy, Malta, Spain, Tunisia and Turkey. We find that not all of these states have legislation specifically covering coastal zones, but there is concern in all areas that the legislation is not working, We also look at the costs and benefits of controlling coastal development.
