  • Extrait de l'Atlas Aquitaine, Limousin et Poitou-Charentes sur la filière forêt-bois

  • The eleven collected wild strains of T. lutea were compared phenotypically, in particular with regard to their pigment and lipid profiles. The genome of each T. lutea strain was also sequenced to investigate the genetic structure and genome organisation of this species. Collected data were summarized in a genome browser to provide easy-to-use support for the scientific community (https://genomes-catalog.ifremer.fr). This provides an important resource- to understand, exploit and predict the biodiversity of this species.

  • This dataset presents the resulting assessment grid (based on the EEA reference grid) with the classification of chemical status of the transitional, coastal and marine waters in the context of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). This classification has been performed using the CHASE+ tool, with classifications of the matrices ‘water’, ‘sediment’ and ‘biota’ and indicators of ‘biological effects’, as well as an integrated classification of chemical status, combining results of all matrices. The chemical status is evaluated in five classes, where NPAhigh and NPAgood are recognised as ‘non-problem areas’ and PAmoderate, PApoor and PAbad are recognised as ‘problem areas’. This is the assessment made excluding concentrations of metals. The overall area of interest used is based on the marine regions and subregions under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. Additionally, Norwegian (Barent Sea and Norwegian Sea) and Icelandic waters (’Iceland Sea’) have been added (see Surrounding seas of Europe). Note that within the North East Atlantic region only the subregions within EEZ boundaries (~200 nm) have been included. This dataset underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the report "Contaminants in Europe's Seas" (EEA, 2019).

  • The maps show the network of protected marine areas (AMP) in mainland France, used to inform users of sea conditions and to inform authorities via display boards in port offices or any other public location. A protected marine area is a defined area at sea intended to protect the natural environment on a long-term basis. The list of protected marine areas is not exhaustive and not all such areas are visible due to the chart scale.

  • Ce projet s’attache à étudier les phénomènes Natech imputables à des inondations/tsunami en considérant deux échelles spatiales d’analyse : l’échelle du site industriel et l’échelle du territoire. Ces deux échelles permettent d’appréhender la problématique des Natechs d’une part d’un point de vue essentiellement « vulnérabilité » et d’autre part, grâce à une analyse plus globale et profonde qui fait résonner la notion de résilience territoriale. Le travail est basé sur une analyse a posteriori (au Japon) et a priori (en France) des pratiques de gestion des événements Natech auprès des parties prenantes (industriels, collectivités, services de l’état…). Pour cela, en France et au Japon, des questionnaires, des visites et des entretiens ont été réalisés sur des territoires touchés ou potentiellement concernés par le phénomène Natech inondation/tsunami. Ces données sont employées : -à l’échelle du site industriel, pour modéliser l’impact du phénomène naturel sur l’installation (par le biais notamment d’arbres de défaillances), puis produire deux outils d’aide à la décision (diagnostic de l’Etude de danger et diagnostic du Plan d’Opération Interne lors d’un événement Natech inondation) -à l’échelle du territoire pour modéliser le processus Natech, identifier 3 zones de fragilité, définir 5 scénarios de choc. Puis, en considérant que la résilience globale d’un territoire dépend notamment de la résilience des acteurs qui le constituent proposer un outil d’audit des parties prenantes du territoire afin d’estimer la résilience de chacun d’entre eux, les pistes de progrès et, in fine, améliorer la résilience du territoire qui les héberge. Mots-clefs : Natech, Science du danger, arbres de défaillance, aide à la décision, résilience territoriale.

  • L’objectif général de ce projet de thèse est d’analyser et d’évaluer les données sources (actuelles et potentielles) des matrices de changements d’occupation du sol afin d’améliorer la robustesse de l’inventaire. Il s’agit d’expertiser par une démarche scientifique la pertinence des travaux réalisés annuellement pour l’inventaire UTCATF. En particulier, il s’agit de comprendre les causes des incertitudes des données sources ; compiler les données disponibles et leurs métadonnées ; étudier qualitativement les dynamiques paysagères décrites ; et redéfinir un cadre méthodologique permettant d’estimer des taux de changements plus pertinent.

Un engagement collectif pour la Nouvelle-Aquitaine de demain.

  • Larvae from Pacific oyster, Manila clam, European abalone and great scallop were subjected to two temperatures and two pH over the course of early development. RNAseq data was collected in order to evaluate which genes are modulated in response to stress.

  • The dataset presents the potential combined effects of land-based pressures on marine species and habitats estimated using the method for assessment of cumulative effects, for the entire suite of pressures and a selected set of marine species groups and habitats by an index (Halpern et al. 2008). The spatial assessment of combined effects of multiple pressures informs of the risks of human activities on the marine ecosystem health. The methodology builds on the spatial layers of pressures and ecosystem components and on an estimate of ecosystem sensitivity through an expert questionnaire. The raster dataset consists of a division of the Europe's seas in 10km and 100 km grid cells, which values represents the combined effects index values for pressures caused by land-based human activities. The relative values indicate areas where the pressures potentially affect the marine ecosystem. This dataset underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the report "Marine Messages" (EEA, 2020).

  • The BEAT+ tool builds on the EEA assessment tools developed and applied in the context of assessing the degree of contamination (CHASE+), eutrophication (HEAT+) and biodiversity (BEAT+) in Europe's seas. BEAT+ makes use of the same data sets and threshold values used in these assessments but recombines these in a new framework that addresses 'biodiversity condition'. BEAT+ has been designed to provide an assessment of the spatial variability of a range of biodiversity components by combining existing biodiversity indicators. The tool integrates data from normalised indicators to identify worst case status measures for different biodiversity components. The results are then linked to a standard gridE based Spatial Assessment Unit (SAU) which is used both for biodiversity and for pressures assessments (Andersen et al., 2014). These grid-based SAUs not only allow alignment of indicators for biodiversity and for pressures but provide a means for combining large assessment areas (e.g. for wide‐ranging species) with point data collected from biological surveys e.g. WFD monitoring. BEAT+ tool works by calculating a Biological Quality Ratio (BQR) which is an aggregated score of indicator outcomes within a grid square. To allow objective comparison, the indicator outcomes are normalised to a scale of 0 to 1, with five status classes at equal intervals on that scale (from Bad starting at 0, Poor at 0.2, Medium at 0.4, Good at 0.6 and High at 0.8). By this means, indicators based on different biological criteria can be aggregated in a consistent way. This metadata refers to dataset providing the results of classification of biodiversity status using the BEAT+ tool. The status is evaluated in five classes, where High and Good are recognised as ‘non-problem areas’ and Moderate, Poor and Bad are recognised as ‘problem areas’. The dataset covers: - BQR Assessment of all marine mammals combined (mainly focused on coastal and relatively stable inshore populations of seals, dolphins and porpoises) - BQR Assessment of seabirds and wading birds - BQR Assessment of commercial fish (as these have agreed targets defined on biomass and fishing mortality) - BQR Assessment of pelagic habitats - BQR Assessment of benthic habitats - BQR Assessment of worst-performing biodiversity groups - An overall synthesis of the Biological Quality Ratios (BQR) values (showing which are the worst -lowest- BQR values in each assessment grid cell. The ‘worst’ value is used here to identify the biological group most at risk, rather than averaging over all groups to avoid over-­emphasis on groups with more intensive monitoring).
