Full textAbstract:
Sports angling in Pacific Northwest waters has been predominantly for salmon from small recreational boats. This has led to a concentration of management resources on the sport salmon fishery. Eight shore-based sport fisheries in Burrard Inlet, however, do not fit into the management framework in place for the boat salmon fishery and have, therefore, been neglected. In contrast, shore-based sport fisheries have been developed in the U.S. and elsewhere, and have realized social, environmental and economic benefits, for urban communities. This thesis analyses Burrard Inlet shore-based sport fisheries and proposes a strategy for improving them to satisfy possible latent demands.
Little was known about Burrard Inlet's shore-based sport fisheries so several methods have been used to characterize these fisheries and the network of management agencies. The methods include a survey of shore anglers, a telephone survey of numerous public agencies, and an informal workshop with professionals interested in Burrard Inlet shore fishery development.
The proposed planned strategy outlines the managerial, organizational and promotional concerns in developing Burrard Inlet's shore-based sport fisheries. In general, all of the shore sport fisheries can be managed together with artificial reef/angling pier developments, excepting to some extent the smelt and salmon fisheries. This collective management scheme allows the managing agency to establish commonly fished and habitat reserve areas for the species used in Burrard Inlet's fisheries. This strategy restricts angling in some areas and encourages it in other areas for most of the species. This will ensure some protection of stocks in our intensely fished area and-will simplify the task of enforcing area closures. The relationships between managing agencies and shore anglers have, in the past, been informal. It is proposed that some of the agencies around the inlet form an inter-agency committee to streamline the development process. The inter-agency committee should also improve its relationship with the shore anglers and encourage the anglers to take some of the responsibility of improving the fishery themselves. Since the Burrard Inlet fisheries are not well known in the community, to achieve the development objective, promotion of its value may be needed. It is suggested that the fishery be promoted in two phases. The first phase would be undertaken by the existing informal DFO shore fishery committee to encourage other agencies to form the inter-agency committee. The second phase would be undertaken by the newly formed joint committee to gain the support and investment from the general public, the shore anglers and the private sector.<br>Applied Science, Faculty of<br>Community and Regional Planning (SCARP), School of<br>Graduate

Full textAbstract:
In the United Kingdom (UK) the social housing sector is mainly managed by Local authorities (LAs) and Housing Associations (HAs), and is at the forefront of the development of sustainable practices. In Scotland, the growing number and financial capacity of HAs places this sub-sector in a privileged position to develop sustainable practices. Furthermore, aging housing stock and limited budgets for new housing or large refurbishment projects places maintenance (and more precisely, planned works defined by the cyclical replacement of internal and external housing components) at the centre of efforts. Although evidence suggests that amongst HA practitioners, awareness of the concept of sustainability is growing, changes in practice remain relatively slow. This research argues that despite governmental initiatives and existing sustainable guidelines and frameworks, insufficient emphasis has been placed on the management of sustainability-related I knowledge held by practitioners. This thesis therefore aims to investigate the nature (explicit, implicit and tacit) and flow of HA planned work sustainability-related knowledge in order to develop a sustainability-related KM strategy improving the exchange, storage and retrieval of knowledge. The research adopts an interpretivist approach to investigate the socially constructed nature of knowledge based on four case studies with different HAs. Prior to the case studies, social housing experts were interviewed to develop an understanding of sustainability awareness amongst HA practitioners. In addition, a Planned Work Process Model (pWPM) was developed through interviews and a survey with HA practitioners to serve as a structure for knowledge mapping exercises across the case studies. The PWPM was contextualised for each of the four case studies and knowledge maps (Kmaps) were used to explore the nature and flow of knowledge around each of the activities. The comparison of the PWPM and the four contextualised case study versions provided the basis for a Generic PWPM (GPWPM) for HA planned works comprised of 6 phases and 30 activities classified as mainstream, occasional and recurrent. From the analysis and comparison of the Kmaps recommendations were developed for the generic HA level and for every GPWPM phase/activity and these formed a sustainability-related KM strategy. In terms of sustainability agenda, the research confirmed the position of planned works as central to future strategy for Scottish HA' s mainly because of the economic downturn limiting new build and large refurbishment projects and the growing governmental pressure for sustainability. The research proposes the integration of KM principles into practitioners' daily activities through practical recommendations considering all sustainability dimensions. The developed GPWPM provides HA practitioners with a process model specific to planned work and a level of detail that is not currently available in the literature. Finally, the knowledge mapping technique developed in this thesis is inspired by existing approaches but builds upon this through a relatively novel practical and systematic way of capturing sustainability-related knowledge from practice.

Full textAbstract:
In the last decades there has been a growing interest in studying processes in improvement work. A particular interest has been the improvement process that the organisation undergoes and why events evolve in the way they do. By better understanding improvement processes and identifying supporting and hindering forces, the possibilities successfully to plan and implement improvement work in a systematic way increases. The focus of this thesis is organisation processes in schools and the relations that hold between planned and emergent improvement, when using a research-based strategy. The aim of the study is to describe and understand how processes are initiated, developed and completed when using a strategy called ‘Scope for Action Model’(frirumsstrategin). The empirical material of the study was organised and analysed according to Van de Ven’s and Poole’s four ideal types for process studies. Within each type, motors have been identified, which contain generative mechanisms that are a key to how actions, events and activities emerge and are driven forward. The results of the study show that the emergent initiatives are more frequent than the planned ones and that they are more likely to generate an improvement – in the study defined as something new in the organisation. However, on several occasions the planned improvement work inspires emergent initiatives for improvement and in some cases seems to be a fundamental condition for their existence. The different motors, which in the analysis are seen as driving forces, support or challenge each other, making the process develop and produce a result. The study shows that the participants reshape the strategy to make it fit into the organisation of the school. The results also show that teachers and principals have to be well-informed of how to work with a strategy in a practical and constructive way. They have to be able to translate crucial moments in the strategy to stimulate the participants to creative actions. The strategy for school improvement is not shown to be a solution which itself can create improvement, but in combination with the participant’s creative goal settings it can be a contributory factor.<br>Denna avhandling riktar intresset mot skolförbättring och de processer som uppstår när en planerad förändring genomförs på skolor med stöd av en forskningsbaserad strategi. Syftet med avhandlingen är att beskriva och förstå hur dessa processer - i arbetet med frirumsstrategin - initieras, fortlöper och avslutas. Studien visar att det finns relationer mellan planerade och framväxande processer. De framväxande processerna är mest frekventa och har sin grund i deltagarnas egna målformuleringar. De förmår skapa utveckling i skolverksamheterna, något de planerade processerna inte lyckas med. Det planerade förbättringsarbetet tycks bidra genom att vara en inspirationskälla eller i vissa fall en förutsättning för de framväxande initiativ som tas av deltagare från olika delar av organisationen. Studien pekar på att en strategi kan vara igångsättare av förbättringsarbete och utgöra en grund för skolor att utgå från. Av resultatet framgår att det är viktigt att rektorer och lärare har goda kunskaper om förbättringsarbetets processer för att kunna använda strategin på ett konstruktivt sätt. Genom att ha insikt i vilka mekanismer som påverkar processer kan ett förbättringsarbete ledas medvetet samt tillåtas innehålla både de konflikter och den samstämmighet som kan bidra till att utveckling sker.

Jusélius, Christoffer. "Suburban retrofitting : a useful strategy for swedish urban planners?" Thesis, KTH, Urbana och regionala studier, 2013. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kth:diva-134886.
Full textAbstract:
There is an on-going generational shift related to car culture, occurring in the developed world. After decades of increased driving, a decline can now be seen in twenty of the developed countries. Moreover, one out of five regional shopping malls in America is either dead or likely to fail within the next five years. This has given rise to a new urban planning strategy called “suburban retrofitting”. The strategy mainly concerns redevelopment of suburban areas; involving densification of the area’s built environment, a diversification of functions and improved public transportation to the area. The most common mode of public transportation used within suburban retrofitting is light rail. Most suburban retrofitting projects to date have been carried out on sites of dead shopping malls, and the literature focused on suburban retrofitting is, so far, mainly focused on American conditions. Thus the purpose of the thesis is to relate the theories about suburban retrofitting to the Swedish urban planning context, to see if these theories are useful and relevant for Swedish urban planners and policymakers. This question is highly dependent on whether these strategies can be considered to contribute to sustainable development. A case study is carried out about the redevelopment of a commercial area called Kungens Kurva, in Huddinge, south of Stockholm. The area will be denser, take on a city like character and be supplied with public transport. However, some important aspects of this project differ from the theories about suburban retrofitting: no housing is planned, substantial space for parking remains and shopping will still be the dominant activity in the area. The preconditions for suburban retrofitting differs greatly between Sweden and the U.S. Thus, the subjects for suburban retrofitting in Sweden might currently rather be the “million program” suburbs than commercial areas at the urban fringe. One of the reasons for this is that, in Sweden, commercial areas at the urban fringe are often still doing economically well. Which means that the preconditions for fundamentally changing the character of these areas – by introducing housing and diversifying the functions in the area – simply is not good enough. Other factors that make a radical transformation of commercial areas difficult are the strong regulations concerning noise and pollution. It is particularly the regulations concerning housing that make suburban retrofitting projects adjacent to highways problematic in Sweden. As for introducing a light rail system to the area, it is only a rational choice for the Swedish cities that already has such a system. The subway system has proven to be far more effective in diverting car trips to locations at the urban fringe. Therefore it might be a better choice for suburban retrofitting projects in Stockholm.<br>Det pågår för närvarande ett generationsskifte vad gäller bilkulturen, både i Sverige och i hela den industrialiserade världen. Efter decennier av ökande bilkörning kan man nu se en nedgång i tjugo av de utvecklade länderna. Dessutom har ett av fem externhandelsområden i USA redan lagts ned, eller är sannolikt att bli nedlagt inom de närmaste fem åren. Detta har gett upphov till en ny strategi inom stadsplanering som kallas för ”Suburban retrofitting”, eller ”förtortsomvandling”. Strategin syftar till att omvandla förortsmiljöer och innebär förtätning av den byggda miljön, en diversifiering av områdets funktioner och förbättrad kollektivtrafik till området. I förortsomvandlingsprojekt är den vanligaste typen av kollektivtrafik spårvägssystem. De flesta genomförda förortsomvandlingsprojekt har avsett nedlagda köpcentrum och den litteratur som berör ämnet är i huvudsak fokuserad på Amerikanska förhållanden. Syftet med examensarbetet är att relatera teorier om förortsomvandling till svensk stadsplanering för att se om dessa teorier är användbara och relevanta för svenska stadsplanerare och beslutsfattare. Vilket är en fråga som i sin tur är starkt beroende av huruvida dessa strategier kan anses bidra till en hållbar utveckling. I detta examensarbete genomförs en fallstudie som berör omvandlingen av externhandelsområdet Kungens Kurva, beläget söder om Stockholm. Området planeras att bli tätare, få en kvartersstruktur och förses med kollektivtrafik. Dock skiljer sig projektet från de teorier som finns i litteraturen om förortsomvandling i flera viktiga avseenden. Inga bostäder är planerade, bilen står fortfarande i centrum och shopping kommer fortfarande att vara den dominerande aktiviteten i området. Några av de viktigaste slutsatserna i examensarbetet är att förutsättningarna för förortsomvandling skiljer sig kraftigt mellan Sverige och USA. Framförallt är de ekonomiska förhållandena för externhandelsområden i Sverige fortfarande relativt bra. Dessutom har Sverige starka regleringar vad gäller partikelhalter och buller, vilket kan göra omvandlingsprojekt nära motorvägar svåra att genomföra. Särskilt om de avser bostäder, vilka är en nödvändig del av ett förortsomvandlingsprojekt om det ska anses bidra till en hållbar stadsutveckling. Vad gäller frågan om att införa spårvägsförbindelser till förortsmiljöer under omvandling är detta endast ett rationellt val om man redan har ett spårvägssystem, eller saknar spårbunden kollektivtrafik överhuvudtaget. I det fall man har ett tunnelbanesystem, som i Stockholm, är det sannolikt mer miljömässigt hållbart att utnyttja detta än att bygga spårväg. Det beror på att tunnelbanesystem är betydligt mer konkurrenskraftigt gentemot bilen avseende resor till perifera mål, eftersom tunnelbanetrafiken är separerad från andra trafikslag och därmed får en högre medelhastighet.

Full textAbstract:
Within the construction industry, proximity of actual to scheduled completion time is a primary performance measure, and deviations from planned schedules remain a popular concern in the field of construction management. Prevailing research assumes that delays arise either from flawed execution of the plan or from failure to plan effectively. Thus, solutions suggested include improving execution and developing ever more sophisticated planning techniques. In spite of these efforts, accuracy in scheduling construction projects has shown little or no improvement, and clients continue to incur the significant costs associated with the failure to more accurately plan. Eschewing this traditional techno-rational view, the current research turned to critical management studies for solutions and investigated planning intentionality, the intentional and unintentional roles planners play in project delays. Thus, it sought to explore the following with respect to the project planner role: optimism bias, where a planner unintentionally mitigates negative information in decision-making; strategic misrepresentation, where a planner intentionally mitigates negative information; and group dynamics in time estimation. The latter is relevant because a team rather than an individual typically embodies the planner function within a construction project. To perform this research, two mixed-methods studies, preceded by a pilot study, and seven interviews with project planners were conducted. The first mixed-methods study investigated how intended and unintended actions of participants affected underestimation of time during task performance; and the second investigated the creation of collective intentionality, the transmutation of individual preferences into a group consensus in time estimation. Results of the first mixed-methods study identified the key situational variables differentiating intended and unintended actions of planners and indicated how these can influence the quality of time estimation. Results of the second study showed that group performance in time estimation was inferior to that of individuals and that group member interaction appeared detrimental to good decision-making. Reasons found were sense of power, commitment, confidence level, cultural diversity, conflicts, and groupthink. The findings were compared and contrasted with those obtained from interviews with project planners to enhance the scope of the study.

Full textAbstract:
Urban development demands on construction aggregates are set to rise dramatically over the coming years within the Stockholm region and a significant environmental challenge will be associated with the large flows of construction aggregates and excavated materials in and out of future development projects respectively. Material banks receive construction and demolition waste (CDW), process this waste and supply recycled aggregates to the construction industry helping to reduce the demand on natural construction minerals. The transportation of these material flows between the material banks and development areas is predominantly by road in the Stockholm region. With the transport sector responsible for almost one third of green-house-gas (GHG) emissions in Sweden, there is a motivation for investigating the environmental benefits of minimising transportation distances of construction aggregates. Quantities of CDW in the form of excavated granular soil and rock from future development locations within a case-study area comprising three municipalities; Botkyrka, Huddinge and Haninge, in the south of Stockholm, have been estimated based on their municipal comprehensive plans up to the year 2030. This has been done with the assistance of an earthworks estimation tool, the ESAR model, developed by Ecoloop AB. Distances between existing and planned material banks and future development areas together with the estimated material quantities have been combined to approximate total vehicle-kilometres for the transportation of these materials under a business-as-usual scenario up until 2030. A comparison has been made to an alternative scenario of strategically located material banks within the case-study area, whereby a methodology has been developed within this study to strategically locate material banks utilising GIS software ArcMap together with land availability map layers for siting material banks previously developed under a separate related study. In comparison to the business-as-usual scenario, one strategically located material bank within the case-study area reduces total material haulage distances of excavated granular soils and rocks from development areas to the material banks by approximately 42% or 3.67 million vehicle-kilometres, equating to a reduction of 3478 tonnes of CO2e throughout the time horizon of this study. Another output from the ESAR model is the estimated construction aggregate demand for sub-surface earthworks backfilling activities. A material flow analysis for the strategically located material bank indicates that the material bank is able to satisfy the sub-surface backfilling construction aggregate demand in the form of recycled aggregates throughout its operation. Considering the flow of recycled aggregates back to development areas for backfilling earthworks activities, a total combined reduction of 45% or 5.54 million vehicle-kilometres of material haulage distance is achievable, equating to a saving of 5248 tonnes of CO2e. Reductions in GHG emissions from strategically located material banks are likely to also be significant beyond the boundaries of this study and warrant further research.

Full textAbstract:
Language Arts<br>Ed.D.<br>In an attempt to investigate the impact of planning on second language (L2) oral production, an experimental study that contrasted the effects of two types of pre-task planning (strategic planning vs. rehearsal) on the L2 oral task performance of 64 Japanese university EFL learners under different modality (aural vs. written) and language (L1 vs. L2) conditions of pre-task input was conducted. The main aim was to determine whether strategic planning (i.e., silent preparation) and rehearsal (i.e., active practice) before L2 oral tasks differentially impact performance in terms of fluency, complexity, and accuracy. An additional aim was to examine the effects on performance of providing pre-task input to assist planning. Furthermore, I elicited the learners’ perceptions of the value of the pre-task input toward assisting their oral task performance via 5-point Likert scale post-task questionnaires. No difference was found between strategic planning and rehearsal in their effects on L2 oral task performance regarding fluency, complexity, or accuracy. This result suggests that, when it comes to pre-task planning, L2 teachers can generally have their learners engage in either strategic planning or rehearsal without differentially impacting their task performance. Concerning the provision of pre-task input, the L1 and L2 input induced commensurate levels of fluency and complexity. However, the L2 input led to significantly greater accuracy of oral production than did the L1 input. This finding is important as it suggests that L2 learners can possibly acquire something from the input provided to them in the course of pre-task planning. Moreover, the post-task questionnaire results corroborated this finding as the participants indicated that the L2 input significantly enhanced their accuracy and also helped them use a wider range of vocabulary during the tasks. Thus, if the aim of a teaching or testing situation is oriented toward fluency, the results indicate that it makes no difference whether pre-task input is in learners’ L1 or L2. In contrast, if the aim is oriented toward accuracy, then teachers and testers should provide L2 input in order to facilitate optimal performance.<br>Temple University--Theses

Full textAbstract:
The objective of the master’s thesis work is to investigate how an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) should act in an underwater tunnel environment. The thesis proposes sensors, control strategies, mission statement, among others, required for tunnel assignments. A behavior-based control (BBC) strategy has been developed to control the AUV. The BBC is used in the middle level of the vehicle control, i.e. the reactive control system which describes how the AUV navigates through a tunnel, while other events are considered. The control strategy has also been separated into two parts, and these are: controlling the AUV’s heading and controlling the AUV to a desired distance from the tunnel wall. To be able to evaluate the performance of the system, a graphical user interface (GUI) has been developed. The GUI enables the operator to change control settings during simulations. Two proposed control strategies are presented with simulated results.<br>Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka hur en autonom undervattensfarkost (AUV) bör agera i en undervattenstunnel miljö. Avhandlingen föreslår sensorer, reglerstrategier, uppdragsbeskrivning med mera som krävs för tunneluppdrag. En beteendebaserad (behavior-based) reglerstrategi har utvecklats för att styra AUV:n. Reglerstrategin används i mellersta nivån i farkostens reglering, det vill säga den reaktiva regleringen som beskriver hur farkosten ska styra genom en tunnel samtidigt som andra händelser beaktas. Reglerstrategin har även delats upp i två delar: reglering av AUV:ns kurs och reglering av AUV:n till ett önskat avstånd från tunnelns vägg. För att kunna verifiera funktionaliteten av systemet så har även ett grafiskt användargränssnitt utvecklats. Gränssnittet möjliggör att man kan ändra reglerparametrar under en simulering. Två föreslagna reglerstrategier presenteras med tillhörande resultat.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis describes a nonlinear optimization model for the placement of rectangular blocks with some wire connections among them in the Euclidian plane, such that the total wire length is minimized. Such a placement algorithm is useful as a CAD tool for VLSI and PCB layout designs.
In contrast to some previous placement techniques, the mathematical model presented here ensures that the blocks will not overlap, and minimizes the sum of the distances of the interconnections of the blocks with respect to their orientation as well as their position. We also present mechanisms for solving more restrictive placement problems: one in which there is a set of equally spaced, discrete angles to be used in the placement, and one in which the blocks have to be assigned into predefined slots. The mathematical model is based on the Lennard-Jones 6-12 potential equation, on a sine wave shaped penalty function, and on minimizing the sum of the squares of the Euclidian distances of the block interconnections. We implement and embed our optimization routines in an interactive graphic block editor. We also present some experimental results which show that near optimal placements are achieved with our techniques.<br>Science, Faculty of<br>Computer Science, Department of<br>Graduate

Full textAbstract:
Ungdomars beteende styrs av attityder, subjektiva normer och upplevd kontroll och utifrån omgivningen regleras beteendet för att skapa intryck som platsar i olika sociala interaktioner. Ungdomar presenteras sig olika beroende på sammanhang och utför olika strategier för att bli accepterade och känna tillhörighet. I dag är Instagram en gemensam plattform där ungdomar kan interagera med varandra via och eftersom det erbjuds bland annat publicering, delning och arkivering av bilder inleds en process till ett förlängt jag. Studien har syftat till att undersöka vilka strategier som ungdomar i åldrarna 13-16 i dag använder i sin självpresentation på Instagram för att uppnå tillhörighet. För att uppnå syftet med studien skapades en teorisyntes för att kunna kartlägga deras strategiska självpresentationer. Denna utgår från Theory of planned behavior, Erving Goffmans dramaturgiska samhällssyn, Jones och Pittmans självpresentationsstrategier och Russell Belks teori kring det förlängda jaget. I vår fallstudie genomfördes en fokusgrupp och fyra individuella intervjuer samt en bildanalys som alla hade utgångspunkt i teorisyntesen. Undersökningarna genomfördes för att ge svar på hur ungdomars beteende ser ut på Instagram och hur de använder applikationen för att presentera sig själva genom publicering av bilder. Resultatet visade att ungdomar i dag använder flera olika strategier för att presentera sig själva på Instagram. Den mest förekommande strategin är självfrämjan och i vissa fall använder de även insmickran och föregå med gott exempel. De vill lyfta fram egenskaperna av att vara kompetenta, sympatiska och moraliskt värdiga och utifrån detta publicerar de bilder på sig själva, sina kompisar och aktiviteter som föreslår just detta.<br>The behavior of adolescents is controlled by attitudes, subjective norms and perceived control, and they generate different impressions based on their environment to fit into their different social interactions. Adolescents present themselves different depending on their relations and alternate their strategies to do so in order to fit in and feel accepted. Today Instagram is a common platform for interaction between adolescents and because it offers publication, sharing and storing of images a process of creating an extended self occurs. The purpose of this study is to examine which strategies adolescents between the ages 13-16 use in their presentation of self on Instagram to achieve their sense of belonging. To accomplish this purpose we created a theoretical synthesis in order to map their strategic self-presentation. This synthesis is based on the Theory of planned behavior, Ervin Goffman’s concept of dramaturgy, Jones and Pitman’s self-presentation strategies and Russell Belk’s theory of the extended self. With this as a base in our case study we held a focus group and four individual interviews followed by a picture analysis. These enquiries were carried out with the purpose of answering how adolescents act on Instagram and how they use this application in their self-presentation via images. The result indicates that adolescents, today, use several different strategies in their presentation of self on Instagram. The strategy that is most prone to be used is self-promotion followed by ingratiation and exemplification. They want to highlight their capability to be competent, appealing and morally worthy and they publish pictures of themselves, their friends and their activities based on that.

D'autres particularités sont associées aux régimes cléistogames : i) les fleurs fermées ne peuvent pas exporter de pollen (pollen discounting total), résultant avec l'absence de l'avantage automatique de l'autofécondation, ii) les couts de production des deux morphes floraux ne sont pas les mêmes, iii) les différences observées entre les descendants CL et CH sont déterminée par le degré de consanguinité mais aussi par le type de fleur dont un descendant est issu. Le taux de fleurs CH d'un individu est souvent plastique, ainsi la cléistogamie peut être un moyen d'ajuster le taux d'allofécondation en fonction des conditions environnementales. Nous avons étudié une espèce annuelle cléistogame, Lamium amplexicaule, qui peut produire une génération de plantes au printemps et une à l'automne et dont le taux CH dépend de la variation des facteurs associés avec la saison. Nous avons récolté des données d'observation en population naturelle, des expériences en conditions semi-naturelles au printemps et à l'automne, effectué des analyses génotypiques avec des marqueurs microsatellites et construit un modèle théorique simple dans le but de i) étudier la variation du taux CH et son caractère plastique ; ii) estimer le taux d'allofécondation des fleurs CH et son lien avec le taux CH ; iii) tester le caractère adaptatif de la cléistogamie plastique iv) tester différents scénarios évolutifs qui pourrait expliquer le maintien de la cléistogamie plastique de L. amplexicaule. Nos résultats montrent que la cléistogamie chez L. amplexicaule est un trait plastique et adapté à la variation entre saisons et aussi que la variation du taux CH se traduit en variation du taux d'allofécondation global. Nous résultats infirment une hypothèse classique souvent utilisée pour expliquer l'évolution de la cléistogamie, à savoir que la production des deux types des fleurs en proportions variables est une adaptation à la disponibilité des ressources, et suggèrent que c'est plutôt la différence de valeur sélective entre les descendants CL et CH ou la variation de l'abondance des pollinisateurs qui expliquent mieux la plasticité adaptative de la cléistogamie chez L. amplexicaule. Dans les perspectives de ce travail, nous proposons d'approfondir les études qui explorent le lien entre l'effet des forces évolutives qui opèrent au sein des régimes mixtes classiques (un seul morphe floral) et l'effet de la spécialisation des structures florales pour différents modes de reproduction<br>Cleistogamy differs from classical mixed mating systems, for which species with single floral morph self-fertilize at intermediate rates: cleistogamous plants produce both closed cleistogamous flowers (CL) that are obligately selfed and open chasmogamous flowers (CH) that are potentially outcrossed. Because CL flowers cannot export pollen (total pollen discounting), cleistogamous species do not benefit from the automatic advantage of selfing. Furthermore, costs for producing the two floral types are different, and the two types of progeny they produce (CL and CH) have different properties that go beyond the differences between selfed and outcrossed progeny. The proportion of individual CH flowers is often plastic, suggesting this trait is an adaptation of the outcrossing rate to environmental variation. Here, we studied an annual cleistogamous species, Lamium amplexicaule, that has both spring and autumn generations each year, and whose CH proportion correlates with variation in seasonal cues. We combined data from field surveys, semi-natural experimental studies in spring and autumn, genetic analyses of neutral markers, and some theoretical modeling to i) assess the variation in CH proportion and its plasticity, ii) assess the outcrossing rate of CH flowers and its relation to the CH proportion, iii) test the adaptive character of plastic cleistogamy, and iv) test evolutionary scenarios that could explain the maintenance of plastic cleistogamy in L. amplexicaule. We show that cleistogamy in L. amplexicaule is plastic and adaptive to seasonal variation, and that CH proportion variation translates into variation of the overall outcrossing rate. Classical explanations for cleistogamy evolution relying on resource allocation to CL and CH flowers do not fit our data; we instead propose that the adaptive character of plastic cleistogamy could be due to environmentally dependent variation in fitness of CL and CH progeny and pollinator abundance. More studies of the evolution of cleistogamy need to account for the combined effect of classical evolutionary forces that operate on the reproductive systems of monomorphic flower species and the effect of floral specialization to different mating types

Sur près de 70 millions de personnes vivant avec l’épilepsie (PVE) dans le monde, 150 000 vivent au Pérou et 52 000 au Laos, avec un déficit de traitement (proportion de PVE qui ne reçoit pas de médicaments antiépileptiques adaptés), respectivement de 75% et 97%. Notre objectif principal était de caractériser l’utilisation des plantes médicinales dans la prise en charge de l’épilepsie. Les objectifs spécifiques visaient à : (i) faire l’état des lieux des connaissances sur les plantes médicinales utilisées comme antiépileptiques dans les pays d’Asie, d’Amérique Latine et d’Afrique, (ii) déterminer la place de la phytothérapie dans l’itinéraire thérapeutique des PVE (iii) évaluer l’efficacité pharmacologique d’extraits de plantes utilisées pour soigner l’épilepsie dans deux communautés rurales du nord du Pérou. D’abord, nous avons utilisé une approche bibliographique exhaustive de la littérature spécialisée. L’approche de terrain au Pérou et au Laos a combiné des outils épidémiologiques et ethnopharmacologiques. La troisième partie de ce travail était une étude pilote ayant pour objectif d’évaluer la faisabilité et la pertinence de réaliser des tests pharmacologiques de l’efficacité de plantes sur différents modèles d’épilepsie. Nous avons identifié 106 publications portant sur l’utilisation de plantes dans l’épilepsie(études réalisées entre 1982 et 2017). Sur le terrain, le pourcentage de recours aux remèdes à base de plantes était de 66,7% au Pérou et de 71,1% au Laos. Au total, 66 espèces végétales ont été citées par les patients et tradipraticiens au Pérou et 87 au Laos. Un effet antiépileptique potentiel avec les extraits de Valeriana officinalis et Melissa officinalis a été observé.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le cadre du projet Digiplante au laboratoire MAS de l'École Centrale Paris, en collaboration avec l'unité de recherche G-eau au sein de l'IRSTEA. Dans un contexte de raréfaction de la ressource en eau, il est important de mieux valoriser l'usage de l'eau dans la production agricole. Pour la conception d'outils d'aide à la décision pour les agriculteurs ou les gestionnaires agricoles, il est nécessaire de développer une démarche quantitative permettant de décrire l'interaction de la ressource en eau avec la production végétale. Dans ce contexte, l'objectif de cette thèse multidisciplinaire est de proposer une méthodologie basée sur la modélisation de l'interaction plante-sol-atmosphère par couplage de modèles et sur le contrôle optimal pour gérer les stratégies d'irrigation. La première contribution de cette thèse consiste en le développement et l'étude de modèles couplés plante-sol, à différentes échelles. A titre de comparaison avec le modèle Pilote qui simule le rendement en se basant sur l'indice de récolte et la description empirique de l'indice foliaire LAI, on a proposé deux autres niveaux de modélisation pour la partie plante, ainsi que leur couplages avec le module sol de Pilote. D'une part, on a introduit un modèle par compartiments qui permet à la fois une gestion plus fine de l'allocation et une meilleure adaptation aux données expérimentales. D'autre part, le couplage a aussi été effectué avec le modèle GreenLab qui décrit la croissance architecturale de la plante. Ceci a nécessité le développement d'une version continue de GreenLab qui facilite en particulier l'intégration de l'effet du stress hydrique. Un jeu de données expérimentales a permis la paramétrisation de ces modèles, sous différents régimes d'irrigation et donc différents niveaux de stress hydrique. La deuxième contribution majeure a été le développement d'un cadre méthodologique pour le contrôle optimal des apports d'eau, dans le cas déterministe et le cas stochastique. La résolution proposée est basée sur la programmation dynamique qui permet de traiter différentes formulations du critère à optimiser, sans contraintes ou avec contraintes (par exemple logistiques ou réglementaires, comme les quotas d'irrigation). Une version itérative de l'algorithme a également été proposée afin d'améliorer la performance de la résolution numérique, mais également afin de pouvoir gérer les systèmes dynamiques à retards (qui peuvent apparaître pour certaines formulations du processus de sénescence dans les modèles de croissance). Notre méthodologie générique a pu être appliquée pour des problématiques concrètes, et permet d'envisager l'élaboration d'outils d'aide à la décision en agriculture afin de gérer les ressources en eau de façon plus efficace.

Full textAbstract:
Les surfaces gauches sont très largement utilisées dans la modélisation d'objets. L'obtention de ces modèles se fait directement par usinage ou par réalisation d'un moule qui sera utilisé en fonderie ou en matriçage. Les logiciels de fabrication assistée par ordinateur ne proposent pas d'aide à l'utilisateur pour la planification des trajectoires. Les choix d'outils, de posage de la pièce dans l'espace de la machine et de stratégie sont souvent arbitraires et reposent sur des habitudes qui souvent conduisent à une faible efficacité. Nous nous proposons dans cette thèse, en vue d'augmenter la productivité, d'établir un critère permettant de justifier le choix de la géométrie de l'outil, du posage et de la stratégie associée. Des travaux de recherche ont prouvé l'efficacité des outils toriques par rapport aux outils sphériques en termes de taux d'enlèvement de matière. Cependant il a été montré que cette efficacité n'est avérée et maximale que pour une direction d'usinage bien précise qui est celle de la plus grande pente. La direction optimale d'utilisation des outils toriques variant sur toute la surface à usiner, des travaux plus récents ont proposé des méthodes de partitionnement de surface : la surface à usiner est découpée en zones qui sont chacune usinées suivant une direction optimale. La planification de trajectoires d'usinage des surfaces complexes se heurte aujourd'hui au problème du choix du nombre de zones lors du découpage de la surface à usiner : un découpage trop grossier ne permettra pas de garantir l'efficacité de l'utilisation d'un outil torique mais un découpage trop fin induira des temps de déplacement entre zones importants et des changements de direction fréquents qui forcent la machine à ralentir et ainsi pénaliseront la productivité. Une méthode de découpage minimal de la surface complexe garantissant l'efficacité d'un outil torique est donc développée et proposée dans ces travaux. Un coefficient d'efficacité permettant de quantifier l'intérêt de l'utilisation d'un outil torique par rapport à un outil sphérique est introduit puis une stratégie de découpage de la surface garantissant l'efficacité d'un outil torique en tout point usiné est établie. La méthode est ensuite étendue en prenant en compte dans un premier temps un posage optimal puis en modifiant le posage (sur une machine 5 axes utilisée en 3+2 axes) pour chaque zone considérée. De nombreuses simulations démontrent l'efficacité de la méthode qui a également été validée expérimentalement<br>Free form surfaces are widely used in object modeling. These models are obtained directly by machining or by making a mould that will be used in foundry or forging. Computer-aided manufacturing software does not provide user assistance for path planning. The choice of tools, the setup of the part in the machine space and the strategy are often arbitrary and based on habits that often lead to low efficiency. In this thesis, we propose, in order to increase productivity, to establish a criterion to justify the choice of tool geometry, setup and associated strategy. Research has proven the effectiveness of toroidal tools compared to spherical tools in terms of material removal rates. However, it has been shown that this efficiency is only proven and maximum for a specific machining direction, which is the one with the steepest direction. Since the optimal direction of use of toroidal tools varies over the entire surface to be machined, more recent work has proposed surface partitioning methods: the surface to be machined is divided into zones, each of which is machined in an optimal direction. The planning of machining paths for complex surfaces nowadays faces the problem of choosing the number of zones when cutting the surface to be machined: cutting too coarse will not guarantee the efficiency of using a toroidal tool, but cutting too thin will induce travel times between important zones and frequent changes in direction that force the machine to slow down and thus penalize productivity. A minimum cutting method for the free form surface guaranteeing the efficiency of a toroidal tool is therefore developed and proposed in this work. An efficiency coefficient allowing to quantify the interest of using a toroidal tool compared to a spherical tool is introduced and then a surface cutting strategy guaranteeing the efficiency of a toroidal tool at any point machined is established. The method is then extended by first taking into account an optimal setup and then modifying the setup (on a 5 axis machine used in 3+2 axes) for each area considered. Many simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, which has also been experimentally validated

Full textAbstract:
We report the serendipitous discovery of HSC J142449-005322, a double source plane lens system in the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program. We dub the system Eye of Horus. The lens galaxy is a very massive early-type galaxy with stellar mass of similar to 7 x 10(11) M-circle dot located at z(L) = 0.795. The system exhibits two arcs/rings with clearly different colors, including several knots. We have performed spectroscopic follow-up observations of the system with FIRE on Magellan. The outer ring is confirmed at z(S2) = 1.988 with multiple emission lines, while the inner arc and counterimage is confirmed at z(S1) = 1.302. This makes it the first double source plane system with spectroscopic redshifts of both sources. Interestingly, redshifts of two of the knots embedded in the outer ring are found to be offset by Delta z = 0.002 from the other knots, suggesting that the outer ring consists of at least two distinct components in the source plane. We perform lens modeling with two independent codes and successfully reproduce the main features of the system. However, two of the lensed sources separated by similar to 0.7 arcsec cannot be reproduced by a smooth potential, and the addition of substructure to the lens potential is required to reproduce them. Higher-resolution imaging of the system will help decipher the origin of this lensing feature and potentially detect the substructure.

Le colza est la cible de nombreux insectes phytophages, principalement des coleopteres, dont les larves causent des degats tres importants sur la culture. La mise en uvre de la lutte chimique contre ces insectes est tres contraignante. Une nouvelle strategie de defense de la plante, par expression in planta d'inhibiteurs de proteases, est proposee dans ce travail. Les proteases digestives des coleopteres phytophage appartiennent aux familles des proteases a serine et a cysteine. Nous avons utilise la sequence codante d'un inhibiteur de proteases a serine du soja (cii) et celle d'un inhibiteur de proteases a cysteine du riz (oci). Une methode de transfert de gene via agrobacterium tumefaciens a ete mise au point sur le cultivar de colza de printemps 00 drakkar. Des plantes exprimant constitutivement les proteines cii et oci ont ete obtenues et caracterisees par les techniques northern (cii), southern, western et par test d'inhibition de protease in vitro (oci). Un travail a egalement ete initie dans le but de disposer de promoteurs inductibles a la blessure pour coordonner l'expression des inhibiteurs de proteases dans la plante a l'agression par les insectes. Ce travail a ete mene sur les promoteurs pr1a de tabac et le promoteur bi-directionnel mas1,2 d'a. Rhizogenes avec la sequence codante de la -glucuronidase. Les resultats preliminaires (tests d'activite -glucuronidase histologiques et fluorimetriques) montrent que le promoteur mas1,2 est effectivement inductible a la blessure dans le colza. La comparaison du profil en proteases digestives de la phedonne et des deux ravageurs (baris et charancon de la tige) montre que la phedonne, pour laquelle on dispose d'une technique d'elevage, peut etre utilisee comme insecte modele pour le test des plantes. Bien que les proteases digestives de ces trois insectes se soient montrees sensibles a oci in vitro, les tests preliminaires sur plantes exprimant fortement cet inhibiteur de proteases n'ont pas permis d'observer de forte mortalite sur phedonne.

Full textAbstract:
A Lean Construction (Construção Enxuta) é uma filosofia de construção que busca reduzir os recursos necessários para a produção e a otimização dos processos produtivos. O crescimento da Construção Civil, a escassez de mão de obra e equipamentos e a necessidade de programação dos materiais com antecedência, são razões que encorajam a busca de um modelo de planejamento que possibilite a leitura das informações do plano estratégico ao operacional. O objetivo é demonstrar que um modelo de planejamento elaborado com ações e técnicas de planejamento orientadas pelo Last Planner (planejamento final) contribui na implantação da Lean Construction. Deste modo, fora realizado um estudo de caso comprovando que utilizando técnicas de planejamento existentes em um modelo de planejamento podem resultar na redução de tempo, mão de obra e custo, quando aplicadas as técnicas de maneira associada e respeitando uma sequência na execução do planejamento. A pesquisa aqui exposta foi realizada através de um método de pesquisa teóricoexploratória buscando criar um modelo de planejamento que estabeleça uma visão clara da hierarquização do planejamento nos diferentes níveis gerenciais contribuindo para um aumento da eficiência do sistema de planejamento, uma vez que o setor tem adaptado conceitos, métodos e técnicas dos ambientes industriais que por diferir o contexto da atividade com o que deu origem a técnica acaba produzindo um sistema inadequado e de baixa eficácia. O modelo de planejamento formado através de uma EAP (Estrutura Analítica de Partição do Projeto), organizada em pacotes de trabalho e ordenada pela sequência executiva da obra, conforme recomenda o Last Planner, permite a identificação das atividades de transformação e as de fluxo, possibilitando a aplicação de sistemas enxutos de produção. Utilizando para a realização de um Sistema de Planejamento uma mesma EAP do processo de orçamentação ao planejamento da obra, as informações flutuam do operacional ao estratégico permitindo que em tempo real obtenha-se o fluxo de caixa da obra, a programação dos recursos e as curvas “S” de acompanhamento físico e financeiro. Através do acompanhamento da obra e da retroalimentação do planejamento, estas curvas “S” e as programações dos recursos seriam alteradas, conforme o andamento da obra, através de um único processo sistêmico, a retroalimentação do andamento da obra no físico planejado.<br>The Lean Construction (Lightweight Construction) is a construction philosophy that seeks to reduce the resources needed for the production and the optimization of production processes. The growth of the construction industry, the shortage of manpower and equipment and the need for programming of materials in advance, are reasons that encourage the search for a planning model that allows the reading of the strategic operational plan information. The goal is to demonstrate that a planning model developed with actions and targeted planning techniques by the Last Planner (planning) contribute in the implementation of Lean Construction. With pre supposed that these techniques, when applied, can result in the reduction of time, labour and cost. The search here was exposed through a theoretical and exploratory research method seeking to create a planning model that establishes a clear view of the hierarchy of different levels of management in planning contributes to increased efficiency of the planning system, since the sector has adapted concepts, methods and techniques of industrial environments that differ from the context of the activity that gave rise to the technique just producing a system inadequate and low effectiveness. The planning model formed through a WBS (work breakdown structure project partition), organised in work packages and ordered by the Executive of the sequence, as recommended by the Last Planner, allows the identification of processing activities and workflow, enabling the application of lean production systems. Using a planning System the same EAP budgeting process to work planning, information float from strategic to operational allowing real time get the cash flow of the work, the scheduling of resources and "S" curves of physical and financial monitoring. Through monitoring of the work and the feedback loop of planning, these "S" curves and resource schedules would be altered, depending on the progress of the work, through a single systemic process, the feedback loop of the progress of the work on the physical plan.

Ainsi, nous pouvons distinguer d'une part les espèces exploitatrices, avec une efficience de la photosynthèse élevée et une acquisition rapide de l'azote dans les sols, et d'autre part les plantes conservatrices, possédant des caractéristiques contraires (Aerts & Chapin, 1999) et des plantes intermédiaires dont les caractéristiques sont intermediaires.L'objectif de ces travaux de thèse est de déterminer l'influence de la stratégie de gestion des ressources de 6 poacées, réparties le long d'un gradient de stratégie de gestion des ressources, allant de stratégies conservatrices (Sesleria caerulea et Festuca paniculata), intermédiaires (Antoxanthum odoratum, Bromus erectus) à des stratégies exploitatrices (Dactylis glomerata et Trisetum flavescens), sur la diversité et le fonctionnement des communautés totales et dénitrifiantes. I) Dans un premier temps nous avons étudié le lien entre la stratégie de gestion de ressources des plantes et la quantité d'exsudats racinaires dans le sol adhérent aux racines (SAR). Nous avons ensuite déterminé l'influence de la quantité d'exsudats racinaire sur les activités microbiennes potentielles des communautés microbiennes du SAR (respiration et dénitrification potentielles), puis par une approche ADN-SIP (Stable Isotope Probing) couplée à du séquençage haut-débit, l'influence de l'exsudation racinaire sur la structure et la diversité des communautés bactérienne colonisant le SAR et le système racinaire. II) Dans un second temps, nous avons étudié le lien entre la stratégie de gestion des ressources des plantes et la nature des exsudats racinaires libérés au niveau du SAR et présents dans les extraits racinaires en analysant les profils des métabolites primaires chez Festuca paniculata, Bromus erectus et Dactylis glomerata, représentant respectivement des stratégies de gestion des ressources conservative, intermédiaire et exploitatrice<br>Root exudation is known to influence microbial communities functioning, in particular those involve in nitrogen cycle. (Haichar et al, 2012). It’s linked to plant physiology, which can be evaluated with functional traits, allowing a plant distribution in function of their performance in their environment. Thus, we can distinguish competitive species, with higher photosynthetic capacity and rapid rates of N acquisition, conservative species with the opposite characteristics (Aerts & Chapin, 1999) and intermediate plants, with intermediate characteristics.The objective of this work is to determinate the influence of nutrient management strategiy of 6 poaceae, along a strategies gradient from conservative strategy (Sesleria caerulea and Festuca paniculata), intermediate (Antoxanthum odoratum and Bromus erectus) to competitive strategy (Dactylis glomerata and Trisetum flavescens), on diversity and functioning of total and denitrifying communities.I) Firstly, we studied the link between the plant nutrient management strategy and the root exudates quantity in the root adhering soil (RAS). Then, we determined the influence of the rate of root exudation on potential microbial activities (respiration and denitrification), and with a DNA-SIP (Stable Isotope Probing) approach coupled to high-throughput sequencing, the influence of root exudation on the bacterial structure and diversity of communities colonizing the RAS and the root system. II) Secondly, we studied the link between the plant nutrient management strategy and the nature of molecules exuded in RAS and present in root extracts by analyzing primary metabolites profile to Festuca paniculata, Bromus erectus and Dactylis glomerata, respectively a conservative, an intermediate and a competitive plant. Then, we determined the influence of primary metabolites profile of each plant on semi-real denitrification of communities colonizing RAS of plants. III) Finally, an mRNA-SIP approach is in progress to determine the influence of exuded metabolites on active bacterial communities functioning and the expression of genes involved in denitrification process in RAS and root system. Our results show an influence of the nutrient management strategy on the rate of carbon exudation, the competitive plants exuding more than conservatives ones

Full textAbstract:
In recent years, one of the most significant pieces of environmental legislation in New Zealand has been the Resource Management Act (New Zealand Government 1991) that has empowered local government agencies to manage the use of natural resources in their regions. Three Government Departments have been responsible for developing policies directly relating to the use of natural resources in New Zealand. The Department of Conservation has been mainly concerned with the management of natural resources on public land. The Ministry for the Environment has particularly addressed environmental policy issues of national significance. The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has worked with New Zealand's agricultural, horticultural and forestry industries to encourage sustainable resource use and development for the benefit of all New Zealanders. In general, local and central government agencies carrying out policy analyses have drawn upon highly goal driven theories such as Rational Choice or Incremental Policy Theories or alternatively they have applied more loosely framed theories such as Systems Policy Thinking or Garbage Can Theory. Policy formulation and instrument selection may have been based upon instrumentalist, proceduralist, contingentist or constitutivist selection criteria, depending upon the assumed influence of peoples' behavioural and social contexts in addition to the technical characteristics of the tools themselves. However, there has been a limited range of policy theories to guide the integration of policy analysis, and formulation and operational planning into a management strategy for effective policy delivery. Such theories would have assisted policy agencies to identify the human and social behaviours most closely related to policy issues and to better match policies to differences in the political and social context of each of the issues that they were dealing with. In academic articles a number of behaviour models from social psychology have been used to explain and predict human behaviour. One of those, the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) has a long history of use in research and application. It has been adapted to suit the needs of policy makers in human health, marketing, and education. Applications of the TRA have been reported to have achieved coefficients of determination for behaviour of on average, 53% in one study and 71% in another. Some of the modified models based upon the Theory such as the Theory of Planned Behaviour, have in themselves been able to make additional contributions to peoples' understanding of how to explain and predict human behaviour in more complex situations. In this report, unless otherwise stated, references to the TRA are inclusive of all associated models, such as the Theory of Planned Behaviour. This thesis has examined the application of the Theory of Reasoned Action in the formulation of environmental policy. Five research questions were considered. 1. Could a human behaviour model based upon the Theory of Reasoned Action be developed sufficiently for environmental policy makers to explain landowner behaviour associated with managing indigenous vegetation? 2. How well could the social psychology model of human behaviour based upon the TRA have predicted public responses to a policy programme? 3. How well could the social psychology model of human behaviour based upon the TRA have distinguished between the policy-intervention needs of different stakeholder groups? 4. How much have peoples' values, attitudes and beliefs affected their behaviour? 5. What would be the immediate antecedents to peoples' behaviour and how have they led to behaviour change? This has been a quantitative study to develop and test models of human behaviour specific to the preservation of indigenous vegetation. Three data sets were compared from surveys of peoples' bush protection behaviour, the establishment of indigenous woodlots and the protection and planting of riparian areas with indigenous vegetation. The results from the analyses have shown that accounting for peoples' intentions could have been used to improve the estimates of peoples' use of policy-desired practices. The coefficients of determination in multivariate equations to predict peoples' natural resource behaviour based upon non-specific (external) variables, varied between 3 - 10%. By including intentions in the models, the level of explanation increased to 10 - 17%. The results may have been lower than expected from other examples in the literature due to poorly specified measures of behaviour relative to the measures used for intentions. When it came to estimating intentions (rather than the actual behaviours), the TRA variables in regression equations achieved coefficients of determination of 55 - 75% and these provided a measure of how well the underlying values, attitudes and beliefs could have given policy makers an understanding of peoples' behaviour. Comparing the beliefs of people with high and low intentions to perform the behaviours, clear differences have been identified that could have been the basis of policy strategies for behaviour change. After analysing and considering these examples, this thesis has argued that the TRA could be used in the future to provide policy agencies with an increased level of understanding of human behaviour and so enable them to formulate policy interventions for achieving predictable levels of behaviour change.

Full textAbstract:
La flore adventice contribue à la fourniture de services écosystémiques, négatifs s’ils sont liés à une nuisibilité pour la culture (disservices), ou positifs via la fourniture de ressources trophiques (ressources florales, graines) favorisant des pollinisateurs et auxilaires de cultures. Dans cette thèse, nous avons analysé comment les stratégies agricoles (combinaisons logiques de successions de cultures et de pratiques agricoles associées) mises en place par les agriculteurs à l’échelle d’un petit territoire, modulent la contribution des adventices à la fourniture de (dis)services. Nous avons également considéré la contribution relative des flores de plein champ et d’interface (zone étroite entre le 1e rang de culture et la bordure pérenne) à ces services. A l’échelle annuelle, nous mettons en évidence que le type de culture affecte fortement la fourniture de services, en déterminant non seulement la composition floristique, mais aussi la croissance des individus et leur probabilité d’atteindre les stades de floraison et de grenaison. Les services sont ainsi plus élevés et plus stables dans les cultures les moins compétitives. Par ailleurs, et malgré la faible superficie qu’elles occupent, les interfaces jouent un rôle important dans la fourniture de services à l’échelle de la parcelle, du fait d’une abondance et d’une richesse spécifique en adventices plus grandes, mais aussi d’une contribution par plante plus importante que dans le plein champ. A l’échelle pluriannuelle, nous montrons que la stratégie agricole, et notamment la succession de cultures, module le niveau de fourniture de services. L’étude des compromis entre services révèle une corrélation positive entre services et disservices, mais nous avons cependant identifié des espèces adventices qui, dans certaines conditions (type de culture, interface ou plein champ), fournissent les meilleurs bouquets de services. Un travail de simulation de l’effet de différents assolements, à l’échelle du petit territoire étudié, suggère que la coexistence d’un grand nombre de stratégies agricoles en proportion équitable est le scénario le plus favorable pour obtenir les meilleurs compromis. Les scénarios impliquant une réduction de la taille des parcelles (conduisant à une part d’interfaces plus importante) indiquent quant à eux une augmentation conjointe des services et disservices mais une plus grande stabilité temporelle de la fourniture de services. Ces résultats suggèrent qu’une diversification des cultures, dans l’espace et le temps, permet d’augmenter la contribution des adventices à la fourniture de services écosystémiques sans engendrer de disservices majeurs<br>Weeds contribute to the provision of various ecosystem services, negative when linked to their harmfulness (disservices) and positive due to the provision of trophic resources (floral resources, seeds) to pollinators and pest natural enemies (services). In this PhD thesis, we analysed how crop management strategies (coherent crop sequences and associated farming practices) implemented by farmers within a small agricultural landscape modulate the weed contribution to (dis)services provision. We also assessed the relative contribution of field cores and field edges (narrow area between the 1st row of the crop and the boundary) to these services. At the annual scale, we show that crop type highly impacts the (dis)services provision, through an effect on the composition of the weed assemblages, but also on the growth rate of individual weed plants and their probability to reach the flowering and seeding stages. Services are thereby higher and more stable within year in the less competitive crops. Similarly, and despite the small area they cover, field edges play a major role in the provision of services at the field scale because they harbour higher weed abundance and richness with individual plants that contribute more to services than the plants located in field cores. At the pluriannual scale, crop management strategy (and notably the crop sequence), drives the level of (dis)services provision. We observe positive correlations between services and disservices, however we managed to identify weed species which provide, in specific growing conditions (crop type, location in the field), the best (dis)services bundles. By a statistical simulation method focussing on the effect of the crop management strategy assemblage at the studied small landscape scale, we show that scenarii composed of a large number of strategies in even proportions are those that deliver the best compromises. Scenarii in which field size was reduced (and which therefore increased the area of field edges in the landscape) resulted in the increase of both services and disservices provision but a higher temporal stability in the provision of services. These results suggest that crop diversification, in space and time, could be an interesting solution to increase weed contribution to ecosystem services provision, without producing too much disservices

Commercialisées depuis 1996, les plantes génétiquement modifiées produisant une toxine insecticide (toxine Cry) dérivée de Bacillus thuringiensis et appelées plantes Bt ciblent certains Lépidoptères ou Coléoptères ravageurs. Au fil des ans, les surfaces cultivées en plantes Bt sont de plus en plus importantes et contrôlent de larges populations d'insectes. Pour limiter le risque de développement de populations résistantes, une stratégie agricole appelée 'Haute Dose / Zone Refuge' est actuellement recommandée aux Etats-Unis par l'Environmental Protection Agency. Cette stratégie préventive nécessite la plantation d'une 'zone refuge' composée de plantes non-Bt utilisables par le ravageur ciblé et plantée à proximité de la 'zone Bt' qui synthétise une haute dose de toxine Cry. <p><p>Mon projet de recherche s’inscrit dans le cadre de l’évaluation de l'efficacité de cette stratégie et s’articule en deux phases :une phase expérimentale et une phase théorique.

Ces paramètres sont sélectionnés car leur variation pourrait avoir un impact sur l'efficacité de la stratégie HD/R dans le contrôle de la résistance.

Efficacité de la stratégie HD/R pour des plantes Bt synthétisant une ou deux toxines simultanément. La stratégie 'HD/R' a été développée pour prévenir la résistance envers les plantes Bt synthétisant une seule toxine. Or, depuis 2003, de nouvelles variétés de coton Bt synthétisant simultanément deux toxines Cry sont commercialisées (BollgardII® et WidestrikeTM).

Ce ralentissement induit une séparation temporelle entre l'émergence des adultes de la zone Bt et de la zone refuge et perturbe une hypothèse principale de la stratégie HD/R: le croisement aléatoire entre adultes, indépendamment du génotype et de la zone d'origine. Dans ce troisième chapitre, nous étudions l'impact de la perturbation du croisement aléatoire sur l'efficacité de la stratégie HD/R. Nous testons également deux options pour optimiser la stratégie en cas d'asynchronie: l'utilisation de plantes Bt synthétisant une faible concentration en toxine (atténuant le décalage entre l'émergence des adultes) ou l'augmentation de la taille de la zone refuge (favorisant la survie des individus porteurs d'allèle de sensibilité et donc optimisant la dilution de la résistance à la génération suivante). <p><p>Ce travail s'intègre dans une problématique actuelle et utilise des outils de biologie théorique (théories de la dynamique et de la génétique des populations) ainsi que le développement d'un modèle mathématique.

Impact of the slowing down of the insect development reared on Bt plants on the effectiveness of the HD/R strategy. The experimental part demonstrates that larvae reared on a Bt diet have a protracted development duration. The consequence of this is a temporal separation between adult emergence in the two zones (Bt zone and refuge zone). This could affect the main assumption of the HD/R strategy, i. e. random mating independently of the genotype and of the native zone. In this third chapter, we study the impact of random mating disruption on the effectiveness of a HD/R strategy. We test two options to optimise the strategy in case of asynchrony: the use of Bt plants synthesizing a lower toxin concentration (limiting emergence asynchrony) or increasing the refuge zone size (favouring the survival of insect carrying one or two susceptible allele and thus optimising the dilution of resistance at the next generation). <p><p>This work is applied to a current issue.

Full textAbstract:
A terceirização e a primarização constituem estratégias de gestão que vem sendo adotadas por empresas florestais brasileiras. Entretanto, apesar de sua crescente utilização, suas diferenças em termos técnicos, econômicos e estratégicos, tais práticas não têm sido objeto de muitos estudos no Brasil, principalmente no que se refere ao setor florestal. Em virtude dessa realidade, o objetivo principal desta pesquisa foi comparar os modelos terceirizados e primarizados dos processos de produção de mudas, formação florestal, colheita e carregamento de madeira, em florestas plantadas, avaliando riscos, oportunidades e recomendando melhores alternativas segundo a percepção ou o ponto de vista dos principais envolvidos, ou seja, a empresa florestal contratante e o prestador de serviços. Para a realização das análises financeiras e de custos dos processos florestais abrangidos no estudo foram utilizadas informações levantadas junto a empresas prestadoras de serviços florestais localizadas no extremo sul da Bahia, cedidas pela Cia Suzano Papel e Celulose, Unidade Mucuri-BA (contratante) e mais outras cotações realizadas com diferentes fornecedores de materiais, mão-de-obra, serviços e insumos. A partir das análises, verificou-se que os processos florestais produção de mudas (com viveiro próprio) e carregamento de madeira, quando terceirizados, apresentaram custo operacional menor do que quando primarizados. Já os processos formação florestal e colheita mecanizada, quando primarizados com a aquisição de máquinas, resultaram em custo operacional menor do que quando terceirizados. Porém, em virtude da necessidade de investimento para aquisição de equipamentos e estruturas, o resultado da análise financeira de todos os processos primarizados tornou-se negativo (VPL < 0). Constatou-se também que os principais fatores contrários à primarização foram: custo com mão-de-obra (significativamente maior para a atividade primarizada), custo com estrutura de apoio e remuneração do capital investido. Já os principais fatores favoráveis à primarização foram: carga de taxas e impostos incidentes sobre o custo do serviço de terceiros e a margem de lucro aplicada pelo prestador de serviço. Ainda que apresente resultados financeiros negativos, a primarização das atividades florestais pode trazer outros benefícios, viabilizando-a estratégica e até economicamente, possibilitando o livre-arbítrio ao administrador quanto à melhor forma de gestão de acordo com a sua realidade e necessidade dentro do mercado. Palavras-chave: Operaçõ<br>The Outsourcing and the Primarization constitute management strategies been used by Brazilians forest companies. However, although its use is increasing, technical, economics and strategy terms are not being studied in Brazil, mainly on the forestry sector. Therefore, the principal goal on this research was to compare Outsourcing and Primarization Models including the process of seedlings production, forest formation, harvest and loading for planted forest, evaluating risk, opportunity and recommendation about better practices by the perception or point of view of the forest company and the service provider. The database for realize the financial and cost analyses from forest processes came from forest services providers, in the Extreme South of Bahia Estate, and Suzano Pulp and Paper Company (contractor). Seedling production, with own nursery, and wood loading presented lower operational costs when done by services providers. The costs of forest formation and harvest processes, when done by the contractor, including machines acquisition, were lower than the same operations done by services providers. However, because of necessary investment for machinery and structure acquisition, the financial analysis of all primarized processes resulted negative (NPV < 0). The main negative factors were labor cost (significantly higher for primarized activities) and the cost of payment for invested capital. The main factors favoring the primarization were taxes paid by services providers and the profit margin earned by them.

Full textAbstract:
Problem: In this study, tour operators' perceptions of market changes linked to the pandemic have been investigated. Based on their perceptions, the most effective competition strategies have been described both before and after the pandemic. Aim: The study's intention was to gain an understanding of how Swedish tour operators experience changes in the tourism industry linked to Covid-19 and what competition strategies the companies use before and plan to use after the pandemic. Method: The study uses a qualitative research strategy with an inductive approach and grounded theory as a method. The collected data material has been analyzed mainly by in-depth interviews which were then transcribed and coded from Glaser’s point of view, containing open, selective, and theoretical phase. This resulted in two core categories that expressed the study's main problems: competition strategies and the tourism industry and competition in Sweden. Conclusion: The study results have shown that the most effective competition strategies according to Swedish tour operators are customer orientation, vertical integration, and digitalization. Regarding perceptions of market changes, respondents believe that there have been no major changes in the tour operator market, but the pandemic has affected the tourism industry and competition in general, where market demand and competition between other industries have changed. In addition, the competition strategies used by companies before the pandemic were effective and provide competitive advantages, which results in that these strategies will be largely unchanged after the pandemic.<br>Problemställning: I denna studie har researrangörernas uppfattningar om marknadsförändringar kopplade till pandemin undersökts. Baserat på deras uppfattningar har de mest effektiva konkurrensstrategierna beskrivits både före och efter pandemin. Syfte: Studiens avsikt var att få förståelse över hur svenska researrangörer upplever förändringar i turistbranschen kopplade till Covid-19 samt vilka konkurrensstrategier företagen använder sig av innan och planerar att använda efter pandemin. Metod: I studien används en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi med induktiv ansats samt grundad teori som metod. Det insamlade datamaterial har analyserats främst med hjälp av djupintervjuer som sedan transkriberades och kodades utifrån Glasers syn, innehållande den öppna, selektiva och teoretiska fasen. Detta resulterade i två kärnkategorier som uttryckte studiens huvudproblematiken: konkurrensstrategier och turistbranschen och konkurrensen i Sverige. Slutsats: Studien resultat har visat att de mest effektiva konkurrensstrategierna enligt svenska researrangörer är kundorientering, vertikal integration och digitalisering. När det gäller uppfattningar om marknadsförändringar anser respondenterna att det inte har skett några större förändringar på researrangörsmarknaden, men pandemin har påverkat turistindustrin och konkurrensen i allmänhet, där marknadens efterfrågan och konkurrens mellan andra industrier har förändrats. Dessutom ansågs de konkurrensstrategier som företag använde före pandemin vara effektiva och ge konkurrensfördelar, vilket resulterar i att dessa strategier kommer i stort sett att vara oförändrade efter pandemin.
