Full textGeomorphic studies of profiles conducted in 1986 across the El Asnam fault zone, the site of destructive earthquakes in both 1954 and 1980 allow quantitative evaluation of state Quaternary vertical offsets. Cumulative offsets were obtained with 13 profiles across both the main thrust fault and the secondary normal faults. 7 of the scarps levelled display three to five events including the 1980 earthquake and 5 others show cumulative vertical offsets at least eight times greater than that of 1980. On the ether hand 22 profiles conducted across the thrust breaks of the October 10, 1980 earthquake (M=7. 3) give more accurate values of co-seismic vertical displacements than those previously measured and confirm the existence of three segments A, B, and c along the strike of the fault. Dating of events identified on profiles, for which trench studies nearby have been conducted, yields the following results : in the last 1030 ±135 years, which is a cluster period of large seismic events, we obtain two uplift rates of 2. 42 mm. Y⁻¹ and 0. 97 mm. Y⁻¹respectively along the fault, as well as a recurrence interval of 315 years. For a longer time span (late Holocene), we obtain average minimum and maximum uplift rates of 0. 6 mm. Y⁻¹ and 1. 52 mm. Y⁻¹ respectively, and a recurrence interval of 710 years. An uplifted terrace located at the junction between segments A and B and dated approximately at 100,000 years implies an uplift rate of 0. 5 ±0. 05 mm. Y⁻¹ which is comparable to the minimum late Holocene uplift rate. The slip rate variability thus appears to depend not only on the uneven temporal distribution of large earthquakes (with M>7), but also on the variations in the amplitude of vertical displacements along different segments of the fault. Hence, the El Asnam thrust behavior is variable and episodic along strike, of the fault and is characterized by clusters of large events separated by longer periods of dormancy

Full textQuaternary coastal deposits are well developed in North-eastern Tunisia. The finest exposures of these deposits are observed in the South-East of Cap Bon peninsula where two lithostratigraphic units were distinguished. A quartzous unit formed by a marine member, a paleosol and a dunal member. The biofacies of the quartzous unit base is basaicly characterized by the occurence of mollusks devoid of Strombus bubonius. The sea level lowstand records are limited to a paleosoils and an eolian sandstone depending mainly on climatic conditions. This unit is considered as the lateral equivalent of Khniss formation (Mahmoudi, 1986,1988) in central Tunisia and of the quartzous unit in southern Tunisia (Jedoui, 2000; 2002). The upper unit is more extensive and consists of shallow marine (shoreface, foreshore, backshore) and continental (colluvium, paleosol) deposits. It is formed at the base by a marine member rich in warm senegalese fauna particularly Strombus bubonius LAMARCK and a large content of oolites and peloids. This member is considered as the most laterally continuous and widespread quaternary marine episode along the actual coastline. It is localy overlain by discontinous reddish alluvial deposits (second member) interbedded between the marine member (second member) and the eolian member (third member). The fourth member corresponds to a calcret overlain by a paleosoil (fifth member) which bears abundant helix. The eolian member of the carbonate unit yields six species of big mammalia : Equus mauritanicus POMEL, Alcelaphus buselaphus PALLAS, Gazella atlantica BOURGUINAT, Phacochoerus aethiopicus, PALLAS, Cerathoterium simum BURCHELL and Hystrix cristata LINNE. This association of big mammalia fauna gathered in El Geffel cave (Qorba) indicates Late Pleistocene age and characterizes a dry climate period. During this period, grazer big mammalia had been developed in savannah type of vegetal cover and adapted to large open biotopes or particularly dry ones. The important voluminous production and accumulation of oolithes and pellets within carbonate sediments suggests that the coastal water of Cap Bon peninsula during this period was warmer than the present. This unit is the equivalent of the Rejiche formation (Paskoff et Sanlaville, 1976), Rejiche unit (Mahmoudi, 1986, 1988) and carbonate unit (Jedoui, 2000; 2002). Therefore, during the Isotopic Substage 5e, two main lithostratigraphic units can be distinguished in Cap Bon Penunsula. The observed petrographic differences between the carbonate unit and the quartzous unit can thus be explained by climate modification during Isotopic Substage 5e

Full textArvicolinae, voles, lemmings and muskrats appeared in Europe and Asia 5-6 million years ago. An explosive radiation was registered for this sub-family around 2 My at the onset of the Quaternary glacial/interglacial cycles. Anterior studies have demonstrated that the dental phenotype of modern and fossil voles and the genetic structuring are potentially related to climate changes. Therefore, several questions can be asked: Are the phenotypic and genetic response link to climate variation? What is the influence of internal factors (development) in the vole radiation? Can the hypotheses on vole genetic structuring during Quaternary be confirmed by paleogenetic studies? Our studies were particularly focused on the common vole (Microtus arvalis). This species is currently widespread all over Europe and has been present in the fossil record for about 470 000 years. On Recent French populations of M. Arvalis, we have demonstrated that the morphological structuring of the first lower molar is significantly correlated with climate, in particular, to temperature. In addition, the genetic structuring of vole populations is significantly correlated with their geographical distribution, which also depends on climate. Developmental mechanisms can explain the molar organization inside the dental row. We have shown that each molar is a single developmental module, which reflects the underlying developmental mechanisms. Moreover, we have characterized the great elongation of the vole first lower molar by establishing a new developmental model. The evolution of dental development suggests that this elongation was unique and sudden in the vole radiation, at the onset of the upper Pliocene glacial cycles. Paleogenetic studies in small mammals is nowadays a true challenge as the DNA preservation potentialities over 12 000 years seems to be limited. We have highlighted that DNA of owl pellet mandibles is degraded during rapacious digestion. Consequently, we have hypothesized that this degradation, anterior to the fossilization in cave sites, might be responsible of the low preservation of DNA in small mammals. Thus, morphometry, modularity, Evo-Devo and paleogenetic studies can improve our knowledge in macro- and micro-evolution relationships involved in the radiation settings during past climate changes

Full textThis work attemps to reconstruct the evolution of the lacustrine palaeoenvironments in the Maghreb and the Sahara during the late Quaternary, by using diatoms. Two geographical sectors are investigated : the Middle Atlas (Morocco), and the Aïr (Niger). In the first part, the background of palaeoenvironmental recontructions based on diatoms are presented. Ecological data on the investigated species and assemblages encountered in the late Quaternary lacustrine sequences (lake Tigalmamine, Middle Atlas; Tin Ouaffadene and Adrar Bous, Aïr) are derived from modern regiôhal references, and/or from literature. The second part reconstitutes the lake Tigalmamine paleohydrology and paleoclimatology since 18 ka B. P. . The marginal and central cores analysis provides the major following conclusions: from 18 to 16. 3 ka B. P. Swampy, cool environments. From 16 to 9 ka B. P. A shallow, freshwater lake has experienced regression (swampy, cool environments)at about 12 ka B. P. . The reestablishment of stable humid conditions occurred at about 9-8. 5 ka B. P. . However brief regressions are registered around 7. 3-6. 8 ka and 3. 5 ka B. P. . The third part deals with the Tin Ouaffadene and Adrar Bous basins. A flood plain environment is recorded at Adrar Bous at about 88 ka B. P. . A shallow late Pleistocene lake (20-14 ka B. P. ?) is described in Tin Ouaffadene. Freshwater, eutrophic lakes occupied the two depressions from about 10 to 7. 5 ka B. P. . In conclusion, the. Reestablishment of generally humid conditions at the Holocene occured at about 9-8. 5 ka RP. In the Maghreb, and at about 10 ka B. P. In the Sahara
