Les pêches maritimes françaises ; 1983-2013
Pascal Le floc'h, James Wilson
- Presse Universitaire de Rennes
- Economie Et Societe
- 11 Mai 2017
- 9782753553675
L'histoire économique des pêches maritimes rappelle le caractère particulier de cette industrie, celui d'une activité de cueillette. L'intérêt des économistes pour l'analyse des pêches maritimes relève autant du thème de l'exploitation des ressources marines vivantes que de leur surexploitation. Il existe aussi une autre porte d'entrée à la connaissance des pêches, celle d'un sentier de dépendance emprunté par les acteurs de l'industrie. Les situations rencontrées dans l'histoire économique contemporaine des pêches maritimes françaises, de 1983 à 2013, montrent qu'effectivement il n'existe pas un sentier unique et que les politiques publiques d'encadrement des flottilles ont davantage emprunté un régime de transition qu'un régime de rupture.
Cet ouvrage rappelle les événements clés de l'histoire récente des pêches maritimes, comme éléments structurants des relations des marins pêcheurs avec leurs institutions. La mise en place d'une politique commune de la pêche en 1983 modifie progressivement le format des flottilles en dessinant une trajectoire le long de laquelle se créent des relations de dépendance entre la profession et l'Etat. L'ouvrage décrit l'évolution de la population de marins pêcheurs, des flottilles et des productions débarquées au cours des trois dernières décennies pour les ports de métropole et de Saint-Pierre et Miquelon. -
This book presents information on common-to-rare organisms from around the world that inhabit freshwater habitats. The first six chapters focus on organisms from the very small (e.g., protozoa, zooplankton, and fairy shrimp) to the huge (e.g., hippos, freshwater sharks, and giant turtles), while the last four chapters provide information on aquatic ecosystems (lakes, streams, caves, and wetlands). Included in this last section are the physical nature of the system and how that influences the kinds of animals living there.
This unique "nature" book, incorporating information from around the world on both aquatic systems and organisms, is written to attract the interest of a wide group of non-academic readers. -

Campus design is no longer just about grassy quads and ivy-covered walls-the past decade has seen a surge in new designs that facilitate learning and nurture student development. This book introduces you to the many design factors that impact student success, and helps you develop a solid strategy for implementing the changes that can make the biggest difference to your campus. Learn how environments shape and influence student behavior Evaluate your campus and consider the potential for change Make your spaces more welcoming, inclusive, and functional Organize the design process from research to policy implementation Colleges and universities are institutions of purpose and place, and the physical design of the facilities must be undertaken with attention to the ways in which the space's dimensions and features impact the behavior and outlook of everyone from students to faculty to staff.

- Springer
- 24 Juin 2020
- 9783030454937
This book contains a compendium of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) articles and reviews concerning state of the art technologies and how they are being applied to human neurodevelopmental disorders. With the establishment of effective technologies to produce iPSCs and their derivatives, like neural precursors, neurons, and glia, researchers have new platforms to study neurodevelopmental disorders. iPSC technology enables researchers to study how human neurons develop in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, providing an unparalleled opportunity to investigate their etiology. In turn, researchers have now begun to understand the underlying molecular and cellular pathways that contribute to human diseases. iPSCs technologies also provide an emerging tool for future translational studies and disease classification. The chapters will emphasize how among the diverse idiopathic and genetic disorders, there are common clinical as well as cellular andmolecular phenotypes.

Today the global war against terrorism has become a desperate, life-or-death struggle for the western democracies. In the armed chaos that is the post-Cold War world, the stakes have never been higher, the consequence of defeat never more dire. And for British Intelligence the time has come to put moral scruples aside and throw the rulebook out of the window. Officially the organisation known as Executive Support doesn't exist. But for its scores of far from innocent victims it is all too real. Its aim: to terrorize the terrorists, its nickname: the Dead Headers. And now the Dead Headers are facing their biggest challenge yet - a terrifying conspiracy that leads the Dead Headers from a secretive German pharmaceuticals company to an Iraqi biological weapons base in the Libyan desert, from a gruesome sex-murder in London's Hammersmith to a power struggle at the heart of the Iranian regime. And by the time the final piece is in place, the fate of millions will have been decided...

Murder, madness and military secrets - the Cold War is over, and things are about to get very hot... Bodies are turning up in Siberia, some mutilated, some half-eaten. Has the spectre of cannibalism reared its ugly head again in Russia, or is a bizarre cult at work? For George Lazin, a colonel in Russia's Federal Security Service sent to investigate the robbing of a Siberian diamond train, the question soon becomes a matter of life and death - not just for him but for Russia itself.

In Rome, the Easter crowds of the devout watch in horror as the Pope is assassinated.
In Canada's frozen north a lake is suddenly turned into a cauldron of radioactivity.
In the Middle East the search for water ends in a bloodbath.
Three events with no connection, no apparent purpose. Except in the minds of an extreme millennial cult hidden deep in the mountain fastnesses of North Carolina; a cult for whom man's abuse of the planet has called down God's punishment, a cult dedicated to initiating a final battle between the forces of good and evil. With a terrifying combination of modern technology, military organisation and religious dementia, they are about to unleash a last crusade that could mean the end of man's reign on earth.

Metabolic ecology
Richard m. Silby, James h. Brown, Astrid Kodric-brown
- Wiley-Blackwell
- 26 Mars 2012
- 9781119968511
Metabolic Ecology Most of ecology is about metabolism, the ways that organisms use energy and materials. The energy requirements of individuals (their metabolic rates) vary predictably with their body size and temperature. Ecological interactions are exchanges of energy and materials between organisms and their environments. Therefore, metabolic rate affects ecological processes at all levels: individuals, populations, communities and ecosystems. Each chapter focuses on a different process, level of organization, or kind of organism. It lays a conceptual foundation and presents empirical examples. Together, the chapters provide an integrated framework that holds the promise for a unified theory of ecology. The book is intended to be accessible to upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, but also of interest to senior scientists. Its easy-to-read chapters and clear illustrations can be used in lecture and seminar courses. This is an authoritative treatment that will inspire future generations to study metabolic ecology.
