Un rôle pour la science de l'information géographique en écologie moléculaire La détection de régions du génome soumises à la sélection naturelle

Stéphane Joost, Régis Caloz, Pierre Taberlet

We introduce a new method to detect signatures of natural selection in the genome based on the application of spatial analysis, with the contribution of Geographical Information Systems, environmental variables, molecular data, and multiple univariate logi ...

New Metabolites in the Degradation of α- and γ-Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH): Pentachlorocyclohexenes Are Hydroxylated to Cyclohexenols and Cyclohexenediols by the Haloalkane Dehalogenase LinB from Sphingobium indicum B90A

Christof Holliger, Thomas Geiger, Vishakha Raina

Technical hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and lindane are obsolete pesticides whose former production and use led to widespread contaminations posing serious and lasting health and environmental risks. Out of nine possible stereoisomers, α-, β-, γ-, and δ-HCH ...

Groundwater flow and contaminant transport in an alluvial aquifer: in-situ investigation and modelling of a brownfield with strong groundwater - surface water interaction

Jordi Batlle-Aguilar

The continuous demand on new residential and economic areas of the modern society has to face up with problems posed by polluted sites related to former industrial activities, typically located in suburbs areas. These sites, known as brownfields, are often ...

Optimal process design for thermochemical biofuel production plants

François Maréchal, Daniel Favrat, Martin Gassner

Transport applications are a major global source of greenhouse gas emissions and the production of fuels that are renewable and neutral in CO2 is an important issue in chemical process research and development. Contrary to the biological routes that produc ...

Testate amoebae-environment relationships and a hydrological transfer function from mires in the Central Rhodope Mountains, Greece

Edward Mitchell

Testate amoebae are useful environmental indicators in ecological and palaeoecological studies from peatlands. Previous quantitative studies have focused on the Sphagnum-dominated peatlands of Northern and Central Europe, North America, and New-Zealand whi ...

A Cognitive and Unsupervised MAP Adaptation Approach to the Recognition of the Focus of Attention from Head Pose

Jean-Marc Odobez, Silèye Oumar Ba

In this paper, the recognition of the visual focus of attention (VFOA) of meeting participants (as defined by their eye gaze direction) from their head pose is addressed. To this end, the head pose observations are modeled using an Hidden Markov Model (HMM ...

Anaerobic biodegradation of linear alkylbenzene: Isomeric ratio as a monitoring tool

David Andrew Barry

Linear alkylbenzenes (LABs) are common environmental contaminants associated with a range of industrial and domestic activities. Although natural environments receiving LABs may exhibit a range of redox conditions, until now only aerobic biodegradation of ...

A stochastic control model of economic growth with environmental disaster prevention

Alain Haurie

This paper proposes a capital accumulation model with a random stopping time corresponding to the occurrence of an environmental catastrophe. Depending on the preventive capital stock accumulated at the time of the catastrophe, the damage cost associated w ...
