Abstract:
In the 1960s, the International Nickel Company of Canada (INCO) sought to preserve its dominance of the global nickel industry by securing access to New Caledonia’s abundant reserves of nickel ore. In attempting to do so, however, INCO became embroiled in an acrimonious political dispute between New Caledonian autonomists, who wanted to diversify the territory’s economic activities and secure greater self-government from French rule, and the government of France, which considered INCO a threat to French sovereignty over New Caledonia and France’s interests in the Pacific. In obstructing INCO’s ability to operate in New Caledonia throughout the 1960s, however, the French government inadvertently galvanized the territory’s nationalists and increased their demands for autonomy from France.

Abstract:
AbstractFive new Helicopha species are described from New Caledonia: H. paniensis sp.n., H. amieuensis sp.n., H. einap sp.n., H. ramea sp.n. and H. dognyensis sp.n. The new species are all endemic to New Caledonia and described herein. Distributional data is included on maps for all eight New Caledonian Helicopha species. A key to the males of New Caledonian Helicophidae is presented. Phylogenetic analyses performed on morphological characters of the males of Helicophidae species show that the New Caledonia Helicopha are monophyletic, but the relationship between the Australian and New Caledonian Helicopha species is at present not fully understood. Analyzing with equally weighted characters leaves the Australian Helicopha as the sistergroup to the New Caledonian Helicopha. When characters are weighted using implied weights and concavity constant of 2, the New Zealand Zelolessica split the New Caledonian and Australian Helicopha, leaving Helicopha paraphyletic. The monotypic New Caledonian genus Briama is closely related to Helicopha in all results.

Abstract:
New Caledonia is a French overseas territory in the South Pacific with a long history of differing attitudes towards independence (Fisher, 2019). The local government aims to challenge French cultural hegemony by building a “New Caledonian School” (Gouvernement de la Nouvelle-Calédonie, 2016). That is, a school in which students are exposed to resources that reflect the realities of the country and allow for marginalised groups to become more visible in the curriculum. It is through this context that this article investigates how children’s literature, in particular picturebooks, began developing in New Caledonia. Children’s literature in New Caledonia is a relatively new phenomenon. Using Gramsci’s theory of hegemony, the paper explains the history of picturebooks in New Caledonia and their role in the curriculum. The official language of New Caledonia is French, but there are also 28 Kanak languages. Surrounded by Anglophone nations, such as Australia and New Zealand, education policies were put in place on this island to introduce English to students from primary school (Bissoonauth-Bedford, 2018). As a result, this article describes and analyses a bilingual picturebook written in French and English by Stephane Moysan (2017), entitled Yana’s Treasure: An Amazing Trip in New Caledonia. In particular, it reviews how this picturebook provides opportunities to bring to consciousness essential elements of Pacific French culture and identity both within and beyond the New Caledonian context.

Abstract:
The origin of the astonishing New Caledonian biota continues to fuel a heated debate among advocates of a Gondwanan relict scenario and defenders of late oceanic dispersal. Here, we study the origin of New Caledonian Trigonopterus flightless weevils using a multimarker molecular phylogeny. We infer two independent clades of species found in the archipelago. Our dating estimates suggest a Late Miocene origin of both clades long after the re-emergence of New Caledonia about 37 Ma. The estimation of ancestral ranges supports an ancestral origin of the genus in a combined region encompassing Australia and New Guinea with subsequent colonizations of New Caledonia out of New Guinea in the mid-Miocene. The two New Caledonian lineages have had very different evolutionary trajectories. Colonizers belonging to a clade of foliage dwellers greatly diversified, whereas species inhabiting leaf-litter have been less successful.

Abstract:
AbstractDue to shared geological history and proximity, the flora of New Caledonia is closely linked to other Gondwanan land fragments such as Australia and New Zealand. Many predominant Australian groups are well represented within the New Caledonian flora, including the genera Hibbertia (23 species) and Scaevola (10 species). Previous studies have found that these two genera in particular have a marked positive germination response to smoke products, although all previous studies have centred on Australian species from fire-prone environments. In this present study, we test the hypothesis that two New Caledonian species of Hibbertia and Scaevola are smoke responsive even though the climate and ecological drivers in New Caledonia are in many respects fundamentally different from those of most of Australia. Preliminary results showed that germination of Hibbertia pancheri was significantly accelerated in response to smoke water while germination in Scaevola montana was also significantly enhanced. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that these trends have been illustrated for any New Caledonian species and these results will enhance restoration efforts of ultramafic scrublands impacted by mining activities in New Caledonia.

Abstract:
Background and aims – New Caledonia is a hotspot of biodiversity in the world. Among the most diverse New Caledonian plant families is Rubiaceae, which consist of 30 genera containing 220 species, with a level of endemism of 93%. The tribe Gardenieae is represented by four genera, Gardenia (8 species), Aidia (2 species), Randia (7 species), and Atractocarpus (10 species). As Randia has now been restricted to the Neotropics, the New Caledonian Randia species remain unplaced within the tribe. Atractocarpus is a Pacific genus, easily characterized by long imbricated stipules, a feature also present in the Randia species and in several Gardenia species in New Caledonia. The aims of the present study are to test the monophyly of Atractocarpus and to assess the phylogenetic placement of the Randia and Gardenia species with long imbricated stipules within Gardenieae and specifically their relationships with taxa of the Porterandia group to which Atractocarpus belongs. Material and methods – We investigated 63 species of Pacific Gardenieae, with a focus on the Porterandia group, in a Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction (cpDNA: trnTF and rpl32, and nrDNA: ITS). Key results – Our study provides a mostly supported consensus tree topology of the Porterandia group. Five Gardenia and seven Randia species fall within a clade that comprises the New Caledonian Atractocarpus species, rendering both Atractocarpus and Gardenia polyphyletic. Conclusion – We enlarge the delimitation of Atractocarpus to include 12 New Caledonian Randia and Gardenia species. New Caledonia is consequently confirmed as the centre of diversity for Atractocarpus with 31 species. According to our study, three genera of Gardenieae occur in the archipelago: Aidia, Gardenia, and Atractocarpus.

Abstract:
The female for Parastephanellus khogis Aguiar is described, expanding the knowledge of the family Stephanidae in New Caledonia, previously centered on four species all known from single specimens. We also provide additional localities for P. khogis and discuss the morphological variation among the New Caledonian taxa, which seems to be morphologically conservative. A preliminary cladistic analysis including all stephanid species from New Caledonia and 63 species from other biogeographic regions suggests the origin of the genus Parastephanellus Enderlein in New Caledonia (lineage of P. delicatus Aguiar and P. mouensis Aguiar), and a recolonisation with taxa related to a possibly Australian lineage (P. khogis and P. sarramea Jennings).

Abstract:
My studies undertaken over the past 30 years have identified the existence of an exceptionally rich and highly diverse scincid lizard fauna in New Caledonia, one typified by regional and localised endemism at a level not indicated by earlier studies. The patterns of broad and finer-scale endemism revealed in the phylogenetic studies indicate a complex evolutionary history for the scincid lizard fauna, one which reflects the historical complexity of the island’s environment, and provides a window into the likely processes that shaped the present day biota. Further, it places the evolution of the New Caledonian lizard fauna in a broader regional context, identifying it as intimately linked with the endemic New Zealand skink fauna, and challenging current conventional theories of a recent post emersion Oligocene origin for the New Caledonia biota.

Abstract:
L'équilibre énergétique de l'océan traduit des échanges d'énergie entre les termes sources aux échelles planétaires et la dissipation aux micro-échelles. Cette cascade d'énergie, cruciale dans la compréhension du système océanique, demande à être mieux comprise et quantifiée. La plus grande part de l'énergie dans l'océan est associée à la dynamique mésoéchelle. Les échelles spatiales correspondantes sont aussi celles des marées internes et dans les régimes océaniques où l'énergie des ondes internes est suffisamment forte celles-ci représentent un transfert d'énergie majeur vers les échelles dissipatives. La nouvelle mission satellite SWOT (Surface Water Ocean Topography) permettra d'observer globalement pour la première fois ces processus de fines échelles. Une motivation de cette thèse est l'observabilité du niveau de la mer SWOT avec le challenge de comprendre la part respective de la dynamique méso et sous-mésoéchelle et des ondes internes. La région d'étude se situe autour de la Nouvelle Calédonie dans le Pacifique sud-ouest et plus particulièrement dans la région sud survolée par une fauchée SWOT lors de la phase de cal-val du satellite caractérisée par une orbite à 1 jour. La thèse s'appuie sur une simulation régionale dédiée à haute résolution (1/60°) forcée ou pas par la marée barotrope en plus des forçages "classiques". Pour la première fois la dynamique des marées internes autour de la Nouvelle-Calédonie est décrite. Cette région s'avère être un hot spot de génération de marées internes associé aux principales structures bathymétriques,. La marée interne est principalement semi diurne. Elle se caractérise par un premier mode barocline très important et une forte signature dans la SSH (>6cm). Cette énergie de marée interne se propage dans l'océan ouvert à partir de deux zones localisées au nord et au sud de la Nouvelle Calédonie malgré des taux de dissipation d'énergie élevés à proximité des zones de génération. Cette propagation est majoritairement associée à de la marée interne cohérente mais l'activité méso-échelle s'avère être une source potentielle de perte de cohérence de la marée interne (marée incohérente). Cette marée interne incohérente est associée aux interactions avec les tourbillons océaniques soit par la réfraction de la propagation de l'énergie du faisceau de marée par les courants à méso-échelle lors de la propagation de l'énergie de marée, soit par les variations de la conversion de l'énergie barotrope en énergie barocline dues aux changements de stratification induits par les tourbillons à méso-échelle. Des observations in situ obtenues par des planeurs sous-marins autonomes révèlent le réalisme du modèle numérique quant à la simulation des marées internes tout en s'avérant être une plateforme in-situ appropriée pour documenter les marées internes, y compris leur signature de la SSH. Dans les régions de forte marée interne, celle-ci domine la variance de la SSH pour des longueurs d'onde jusqu'à 200 km correspondant. Une attention particulière est accordée à la marée incohérente, qui se manifeste dans la SSH à des échelles inférieures à 100 km. Cette thèse initie également l'étude de l'impact des marées internes sur la circulation à méso-échelle et sous-méso-échelle, avec des voies prometteuses pour les travaux futurs sur les échanges d'énergie entre les échelles et la fermeture du bilan énergétique océanique. Ces travaux participeront à la valorisation des données SWOT dans le cadre de SWOT-AdAC avec la campagne SWOTALIS. Enfin, ils sont une première initiative dans l'implication des marées internes en lien avec l'écosystème marin de la Nouvelle-Calédonie associée à un objectif de mise en place d'aires marines protégées au sein du parc naturel de la mer de Corail
The oceanic energy cascade and the associated redistribution of energy from planetary scales to microscales are crucial to achieve climate equilibrium, yet they remain to be fully understood and quantified. Among the submesoscale flow regime which is characterized by equal contributions from rotational (balanced) and non-rotational (unbalanced) effects, it is internal tides (internal gravity waves at tidal frequency) which have been shown to represent a major energy transfer toward dissipative scales. The Surface Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission will push forward global sea surface height (SSH) observations of fine-scale physics of combined balanced and unbalanced motions, and their interactions. Our understanding of these processes will ultimately depend on our ability to disentangle these two different dynamical flow regimes. This thesis aims to tackle SWOT SSH observability of balanced and unbalanced motions around New Caledonia, an area with pronounced internal tide activity alongside elevated level of mesoscale to submescale eddy variability located beneath two swaths of SWOT's fast-sampling phase during which SWOT orbited on a 1-day repeat cycle to collect high-frequency measurements. As an initial step, this thesis provides the first comprehensive description of internal-tide dynamics around New Caledonia, an internal generation hot spot in the southwestern tropical Pacific that has not yet been explored in the literature, based on a tailored regional high-resolution (1/60°) numerical modeling effort. Internal tide generation around New Caledonia is associated with the main bathymetric structures, i.e. continental slope, shelf breaks, small- and large-scale ridges, and seamounts, strongly dominated by the semidiurnal tide and low-vertical modes, with a strong signature in SSH. It is found to be a major source of tidal energy propagation toward the open ocean despite enhanced energy dissipation rates close to the generation sites. Mesoscale eddy variability is shown to be a potential source for the loss of tidal coherence (or tidal incoherence) due to eddy-internal tide interactions, either through the refraction of tidal beam energy propagation by mesoscale currents toward the open ocean or by mesoscale-eddy induced variations of barotropic-to-baroclinic energy conversion. Important insight is provided by in-situ observations of autonomous underwater gliders. They reveal the numerical model's realism of internal-tide dynamics while proving to be a suitable in-situ platform to infer internal tides, including SSH signature. SWOT SSH observability of balanced and unbalanced motions represent a challenge around New Caledonia as the internal tide dominates SSH variance at wavelengths similar to those of balanced motion at scales less than 200~km wavelength. Particular emphasis is given to the incoherent tide, which manifests in SSH at scales less than 100~km, while restricting the observability of mesoscale and submesoscale motions. An outlook is given on the impact of internal tides on the mesoscale to submesoscale circulation with promising routes for future work on cross-scale energy exchanges and the closure of the oceanic energy budget. Finally, the comprehensive description of internal-tide dynamics conducted in this thesis has important implications for the New Caledonia marine ecosystem, with the hope of paving the way for the island's efforts in the conservation of marine protected areas

This thesis is an examination of the particular role that education has played in the development of colonialism in New Caledonia. The focus is on the role of education in the developing relationship between the colonised people and the colonial power. It will be shown that France's education policies closely paralleled its political objectives in New Caledonia. Similarly, the changing Kanak attitude towards education can be seen to reflect changes in their political aspirations and developments in their anti-colonial struggle.

Abstract:
The Araucaria conifers of New Caledonia are a globally significant group with 13 endemic species, eleven of which are threatened with extinction. The critically endangered conifer Araucaria nemorosa and common widespread congener A. columnaris, provide a comparative framework in which to empirically investigate the genetic consequences of fragmentation in understudied anemophilous group. A survey of the genetic diversity at nuclear microsatellite loci over the species’ total range suggests that adults of A. nemorosa are not genetically depauperate, maintaining equivalent levels of genetic diversity to A. columnaris (Ae=20.66; 14.7; He=0.715; 0.654 in A. nemorosa and A. columnaris respectively). However, quantifying genetic diversity and inbreeding coefficients in seedling populations revealed a significant loss of allelic richness and a two-fold increase in the inbreeding coefficients in A. nemorosa  seedlings compared to adult populations (FIS 0.195 vs 0.096). This indicates that genetic bottlenecks and elevated inbreeding are likely consequences of fragmentation in A. nemorosa populations. Stand structure, reproductive characteristics and population genetic structure within remnant populations of A. nemorosa were assessed in order to place the genetic consequences of fragmentation in an ecological context. This indicates that in severely fragmented populations ecological and genetic factors can interact to determine population persistence. The reproductive characteristics of A. nemorosa were evaluated, which revealed that seed set is generally very low (5% seed set per cone) with a high variance among individuals. The consequences of fertility variance for the effective population size were explored using both ecological and genetic methods. This suggests that fertility variance will have few consequences for population genetics of wild seedling cohorts. However, in a single season, the number of adults contributing to the seed crop may be small and this has implications for the sampling of germplasm for forest restoration.

Abstract:
13 of the world’s 19 Araucaria species are endemic to New Caledonia. This thesis has investigated the evolution and systematics of this group. A molecular phylogenetic study based on sequence data from two chloroplast regions resolved all 13 New Caledonian species as a monophyletic group, sister to the Norfolk Island Pine (A. heterophylla). The relationships between the New Caledonian species was not fully resolved as little sequence variability was detected, however, three main groups were defined. The species with bigger leaves occupied a basal polytomy, whereas the vast majority of species with smaller leaves were grouped together in a clade. Within this ‘small leaved’ clade, the three New Caledonian species with a coastal distribution formed another monophyletic group. The timing of the radiation of all these species was tested via a molecular clock approach using different calibration tools (fossil data, geological events, substitution rates). The precise dating of the New Caledonian radiation remains uncertain because different calibration methods give different dates. However, it seems likely to have occurred between 10 and 43 mya. A combination of molecular and morphological approaches was used to assess species limits and population identities. This resulted in re-determination of the identity of several populations and the distributions of some species. The current state of knowledge of the taxonomy of the New Caledonian species was summarised. Finally, the distribution of chloroplast haplotypes among 468 individuals from 49 populations representing all New Caledonian Araucaria revealed strong taxonomic signal, and high genetic diversity among the species with bigger leaves, and low diversity in the coastal species. The distribution of genetic variation is discussed in the context of the evolution and conservation of the New Caledonian Araucaria spp.

Abstract:
L’évolution convergente des formes de croissance est un phénomène fondamental reliant l’écologie et l’évolution des plantes. Remarquablement illustré dans plusieurs systèmes insulaires, ce phénomène n’a jamais été identifié en Nouvelle-Calédonie, pourtant connue pour la richesse et l’originalité de sa flore. Par une approche combinant architecture des plantes, traits fonctionnels, taxonomie, phylogénie et données environnementales, cette thèse analyse l’histoire évolutive de la monocaulie, une forme de croissance mal connue, en Nouvelle-Calédonie. Les monocaules sont des plantes autoportantes ligneuses dont les fonctions majeures sont assurées par une seule tige apparente. En Nouvelle-Calédonie, elles sont représentées par 182 espèces dicotylédones appartenant à 41 genres et 30 familles et sont gravement menacées d’extinction. L’évolution répétée de la monocaulie en Nouvelle-Calédonie, issue d’au moins 31 événements d’apparition, est l’un des cas les plus remarquables de convergence en milieu insulaire. Dans le genre Atractocarpus, la monocaulie est apparue récemment deux à trois fois via diverses réductions des branches en inflorescences, montrant l’importance des processus hétérochroniques dans l’évolution des formes de croissance. La monocaulie est fortement corrélée à plusieurs traits démontrant des contraintes majeures dans la coordination fonctionnelle. L’évolution de la monocaulie est fortement associée aux forêts denses humides et au substrat ultramafique, et semble avoir contribué à la diversification des lignées par des phénomènes de partitionnement de niche. La remarquable convergence de la monocaulie en Nouvelle-Calédonie peut s’expliquer par quatre hypothèses majeures liées (i) à la structure particulière des forêts denses humides (en lien avec les cyclones) favorisant l’exploration unidirectionnelle de l’espace, (ii) aux contraintes édaphiques liées aux substrats ultramafiques favorisant la paupérisation architecturale, (iii) à l’absence historique de grands brouteurs, auxquels les monocaules sont particulièrement sensibles, et (iv) à la persistance des forêts denses humides lors des épisodes glaciaires (servant de refuges pour ces espèces sensibles) et leur expansion post-glaciaire (fournissant de nombreuses opportunités écologiques)
The convergent evolution in growth habit is a fundamental phenomenon linking plant ecology and evolution. Remarkably illustrated in island biotas, this phenomenon has never been identified in the original and megadiverse New Caledonian biodiversity hotspot. Through an approach combining plant architecture, functional traits, taxonomy, phylogeny and environmental data, this thesis analyses the evolutionary history of the scarcely known monocaulous growth habit in New Caledonia. Monocauls are self-supporting woody plants whose cardinal functions rely on a single visible stem. In New Caledonia, they are represented by 182 dicotyledonous species belonging to 41 genera and 30 families and are critically endangered. The repeated evolution of the monocaulie in New Caledonia, resulting from at least 31 independent events, is one of the most remarkable cases of convergence in insular environments. In the genus Atractocarpus (Rubiaceae), monocauly evolved recently two to three times through branch reductions into inflorescences, emphasizing the importance of heterochronic processes in the evolution of growth habit. Monocauly is strongly correlated with several traits illustrating major constraints in functional coordination. The evolution of monocauly is strongly associated with rainforests and ultramafic substrate, and seems to have contributed to the diversification of lineages by niche partitioning. The remarkable convergence toward monocauly in New Caledonia can be explained by four major hypotheses: (i) the structural features of rainforests (related to cyclone frequency and intensity) favoring unidirectional exploration of space, (ii) the edaphic constraints associated with ultramafic substrate favoring architectural pauperization, (iii) the historical absence of large native browsers to which monocauls are particularly sensitive, and (iv) the persistence of rainforest during – and spread-out after – glacial episodes that served as refugia and further provided ecological opportunities

Abstract:
The project comprising this doctoral dissertation investigated long-term patterns of inter-cultural contact and exchange in Ouvea, a Polynesian Outlier in the Loyalty Islands, New Caledonia. To address the research question, an interdisciplinary approach involved ethnohistory, linguistics, and archaeology, with an emphasis on the contribution of archaeology. Ethnohistory offered insight into the contexts of inter-cultural contact and traditional exchange systems in Ouvea and also provided a hypothesis of settlement chronology. Linguistic information proposed a relative sequence of events and processes reflecting contact-induced changes in the Ouvea communities. The archaeological field work for this project concentrated on two rockshelters (Sites LUV029 and LUV030) and an adjacent beach dune (Site LUV028) in Muli Islet of Ouvea. Initial human occupation on a temporary recurrent basis in one of the rockshelters (LUV030) was dated to the first few centuries A.D., followed by permanent habitation and an expansion of occupation to include both rockshelters and agricultural use of the associated beach dune around A.D. 1000. In the subsequent centuries of continuous human occupation, evidence indicated an adaptation to the local physical and cultural environment through intensification in local resources, production of specialized material objects, and an increase in the abundance and diversity of imported exogenous materials. Interpretation of research results from Muli related to internal production and exchange systems in Ouvea as well as to larger spheres of contact and exchange that encompassed the New Caledonia region and even more distant island archipelagos.

Abstract:
AbstractA “citizenship of New Caledonia” has proven to be one of the most significant yet polarising aspects of the 1998 Nouméa Accord. Citizenship of New Caledonia restricted who could vote in provincial elections and for the Congress but also shaped efforts to promote local employment. In the Accord, it is the political and moral basis for New Caledonia’s common destiny and endeavours to transcend pro- and anti-independence divisions. This chapter outlines the historical roots of the notion of citizenship within New Caledonia and how it has emerged within competing understandings of decolonisation and self-determination. Citizenship of New Caledonia rejects the universal assumptions of French decolonisation in favour of a new political community with the Kanak people at its centre. This chapter highlights the difficulties of agreeing to boundaries of citizenship due in part to citizenship’s role as a political mechanism to achieve balance between the two opposing forces.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter explores women’s engagement in politics in New Caledonia over time. Despite widespread resistance to western conceptualisations of feminism, women’s organising in New Caledonia has a long history. Although women’s movement has historically been fragmented along ethnic and ideological lines, a strong women’s coalition emerged during the debate over the French parity laws. Activists from both the pro-independence and loyalist sides of politics campaigned strongly to ensure the parity laws would be implemented in the territory. These laws, and the advocacy from local women’s groups, have ensured that since 2004 women have been represented in New Caledonian politics in near-equal numbers to men. Men still dominate key positions of political power, and in the complex political environment of New Caledonia, gender is just one political identity among many, making issues of representation fraught. Yet women’s increased access to politics has had a substantive impact in New Caledonia: enabling the articulation of diverse viewpoints, enhancing women’s status as leaders and increasing attention paid to key gender policy issues. Building on a long history of women’s participation in decision-making, collective action and political activism in the territory, the parity laws have created an expanded political sphere for women.

Abstract:
AbstractDevoting a full chapter to the fishers of New Caledonia serves a dual purpose: firstly, to report on a practice driven by multiple rationales that are, for the most part, unknown or insufficiently understood in and outside the territory, and secondly, to show that the place that fishers occupy in the relationship between fish, ecosystems, fishing effort and consumption is much more complex than in other small-scale fisheries and management regimes. Drawing on anthropological and geographical research conducted since 2010, this chapter sketches a general picture of the main types of fishing practised in New Caledonia, focusing on presenting the fishers who undertake them. We discuss the place of fishing in the livelihood activities of Caledonians, irrespective of their social status, and examine the different purposes for which fishing is practised and that fishers assign to their practices. The conclusion focuses on ongoing efforts at the territorial and provincial levels to better incorporate the fishers’ diversity and functions in fisheries management policies.
