Full textAbstract:
Since a solution towards carbon neutrality in already highly populated territories that does not profoundly alter the territories has not yet been found, territorial acupuncture, a new methodology presented in this paper, proposes a solution to this challenge and simultaneously helps to counter the dysfunctional dichotomy between large urban centres and small towns. The aim of this study is therefore to present this new concept and its operation. Hence, a phased study was carried out. Territorial acupuncture is the result of merging different theories and practices, such as Biourbanism, urban acupuncture, and energy community design. For Territorial Acupuncture, the territory is conceived as a single organism and, just like acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine, punctual interventions (in this case, interconnected energy communities) would benefit the entire territory organism. To make the theory work properly, it will be necessary to carry out multi-scalar and multi-disciplinary analyses over the entire territory to identify the intervention points and then proceed to the design and interconnection of the individual district. Thus, Territorial Acupuncture provides a new approach to the resilience of densely populated territories, which, through punctual interventions on a district scale, benefits the entire territory by modifying energy, socio-economic, and environmental dynamics.

Full textAbstract:
The move towards a climate neutral economy and society requires policymakers and practitioners to carefully consider the core technical, social, and spatial dimensions of a just transition. This paper closely examines the processes undertaken during the development of EU Territorial Just Transition Plans (TJTPs) for the three Swedish regions of Gotland, Norrbotten, and Västra Götaland. The aim is to establish whether the content and actions outlined in the TJTPs were driven by the technical, social, or spatial dimensions of a just transition. The analysis is primarily based on a socio-economic and governance impact assessment conducted in each region as part of the TJTP formulation process. These data are also supported by observations of the TJTP development process by the article authors who were part of the team put together by DG Reform to work with the preparation of the TJTPs. The paper finds that the TJTPs development process was largely driven by technical considerations, rather than spatial and socio-economic issues. This indicates that a more open and inclusive place-based territorial approach to climate transition policy formulation and implementation is required. A balance between the technical, social, and spatial elements of a just transition is needed if policies are going to meet the requirements of local and regional citizens and provide sustainable socio-economic growth and environmental protection, without risks of delocalizing energy-intensive processes to other regions.

Resumen: Como luchadora ambiental junto con mis compañeras busco avanzar hacia las transiciones sociales y energéticas considerando perspectivas psicosociales y comunitarias. Desde las luchas territoriales en nuestra zona de sacrificio, constatamos cómo la colonización y el extractivismo han configurado territorios despojados de sus bienes comunes y un sistema sexogénerico heteronormado al servicio del capital. Con respecto a nuestra propuesta hacia la transición cultural y sociológica, en alianza con otras organizaciones, en unidad con otras fuerzas ecológicas y democratizadoras de las comunidades, buscaremos descolonizar violencias instaladas en nuestros cuerpos-territorios, combinando arte, cultura y educación, y desarrollando ciudadanía. Queremos liberar identidades negativas y conciencias inferiorizadas. Transitar hacia un cambio cultural y político a nivel psicosocial-comunitario para llegar al nivel del cambio cultural histórico-político. Palabras clave: resistencia, racialización, cultura, educación, arte, liberación Abstract: As an environmental fighter with my colleagues, we seek to move towards social and energy transitions considering psychosocial and community perspectives. From our territorial struggles in our sacrifice zone, we see how colonization and extractivism have configured territories stripped of their common goods and a heteronormative sex-gender system at the service of capital. Our proposal towards the Cultural Sociological Transition: In alliance with other organizations, seeking unity of ecological and democratizing forces, in communities we will seek to decolonize violence installed in our territorial bodies combining Art-Culture-Education and developing citizenship.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents the results of a comparative research on place-based policies towards “left-behind territories” in Europe. It shows the variety of trajectories of putting the territorial question on the agenda and of defining the 'forgotten' territories in Italy, Spain and Poland. This variety reveals specific processes linked to short- and long-term debates on the Nation. The tools used to help these territories tend to converge, under the influence of methods coming from the European Union. However, the functions of these territories are still unclear in national planning strategies, particularly because their possible contributions to ecological transition and the economic models of this transition are only imperfectly defined.

Full textAbstract:
Albanian inhabited cities and centres have undergone chaotic developments in the years of transition, and this has come as a result of development not based on previous territorial and urban planning. Thus, construction, urban and territorial development in the transition years has not been the result of the implementation of previously approved territorial and urban planning instruments. This has come as a result of the lack of territorial and urban plans (local or national), which would precede construction and urban development with the aim of making this development smart, sustainable and comprehensive. In this context, we have made an observation in attempt to find the reasons for the lack of territorial and urban planning instruments in relation to governance. Our concern is focused on the question: has the scope of governance been so narrow that it has left out the task of drafting and approving territorial planning instruments; or was their absence for other reasons? As will be presented in this paper, transitional governments have not lacked: neither sectoral legislation that obliges the implementation of planning instruments; nor public institutions charged by law specified by duties in this field; nor public budget funding and foreign donors for their design. In contrast, it has been the characteristics of the left ‘big government’ and the public irresponsibility that characterize what have hindered the drafting and adoption of territorial and urban planning instruments.

Abstract This case study unravels the ambiguous position of public energy distributor Fluvius in dealing with strategic regional transition challenges. It enriches current understandings of spatial transition dimensions and of public regime actors’ role in transitions, by unravelling the territorial and institutional embeddedness of regional energy distribution systems. We disentangle three controversies in Flemish energy distribution, centred around the spatial concepts of density, spatial selectivity and socio-spatial redistribution. This spatial lens reveals the implicit spatial logics and inherently political character of transforming regional distribution systems. We conclude that a fundamental energy transition requires more inclusive governance, and an ambitious spatial transition vision.

Full textAbstract:
The unsustainability of the globalized food system is a relevant debate. Despite the vast amount of literature on sustainable food systems, there is little research explaining how food system innovations can scale impact and influence systemic change. Moreover, not much literature considers the territorial context in which innovations take place, as a key factor in fostering transition. In this paper, we attempt to understand how territorial factors, such as actors and networks, influence sustainable food system transition. To achieve this goal, we built and applied an original methodology that was able to map the specific territorial context and dynamics. Considering a case study of 12 urban food system innovations in Montpellier (France), we reconstructed the relational context, in order to demonstrate the key role of embedded territorial dynamics in fostering sustainable transition. The application of our methodology produced about seven territorial conditions, which are defined by the differences between innovations, power relations and dynamics, the role of politics and the so-called “spaces of governance”. Each of these conditions plays a critical role in the transition to a sustainable food system.

Full textAbstract:
Cette étude géographique du pouvoir local veut cerner les liens entre actions publiques et transformations de l'espace, à Toulouse et sur la Côte d'Azur. L'analyse se focalise sur les conséquences de la transition urbaine et son accompagnement par la planification urbaine et la programmation des infrastructures de transport. La transition urbaine est le processus de transformation de la ville causé par la généralisation de l'automobile. On passe d'une urbanisation dense et compacte, à l'échelle du piéton, à une ville étalée polarisant une vaste " aire urbaine. " Cette mutation devait être canalisée par les premiers schémas d'aménagement des " aires métropolitaines ", mis en chantier à la fin des années 1960. Mais ceux-ci ont échoué. Les communes périurbaines se sont opposées à la régulation de l'étalement urbain, par ailleurs favorisé par le développement des axes routiers. Cette périurbanisation génère des dysfonctionnements. Perceptibles dès le milieu des années 80, ils motivent une relance de la planification encouragée par l'Etat et les représentants du monde économique local. Celle-ci se combine avec l'émergence d'un nouveau référentiel : le développement urbain durable. Mais les documents dernièrement adoptés ne semblent toujours pas capables de réguler efficacement la transition urbaine, même s'ils induisent des évolutions encourageantes. Notre travail souligne la difficile régulation de la croissance et de l'étalement urbain, ainsi que la complexité des jeux d'acteurs sous-jacents. L'inertie des logiques techniques et politiques semble bloquer durablement l'émergence d'une vision plus globale des territoires. Pourtant, les dysfonctionnements causés par la transition urbaine et la non-durabilité d'une ville de plus en plus étalée appellent à une planification plus intégrée et moins centrée sur la mobilité automobileThis work is a geographical study of urban governance. It tries to underline the link between "urban transition", town planning and transportation policies. The "urban transition" means the city moves from a pedestrian organization (the compact city) to a car organization (the dispersed city. ) This process causes automobile dependence and has negative impact on urban sustainable development. Planners wants to control city-sprawl and facilitate car transit. But suburbs and rural municipalities wants more city sprawl and try to stop any control of the land-use at the urban region level. This gap between political and technical logic prevents from any control of urban sprawling, while roads and highways reduce time travel. More and more people can choose peripheral localization for housing, and go fast in the urban region's center. Since a few year, urban planing tries to promote urban sustainable development. Control the "urban transition" is a key issue. But in Nice and Toulouse, "urban region planing governance systems" seams not able to reach this goal. However, external constraints - like national and European laws, or demographic evolution - push some more "sustainable" municipal policies

Full textAbstract:
Notre thèse interroge les processus de transition énergétique engagés dans les collectivités territoriales françaises, en les inscrivant dans une perspective historique. Nous analysons les politiques territoriales de développement des énergies renouvelables, de maîtrise de la demande et de modernisation des réseaux d’énergie, qui se développent depuis le milieu des années 2000. Elles se déploient dans un contexte de remise en cause des logiques historiques gouvernant les politiques publiques françaises dans le domaine de l’énergie, et en particulier le secteur de l’électricité. Cela offre des opportunités à un ensemble d’acteurs en contestant les principes d’organisation, mettant en avant des logiques alternatives, qu’ils construisent et étayent depuis plusieurs décennies. A la faveur de l’action d’entrepreneurs politiques, qui mobilisent des ressources acquises au cours de leur carrière, un modèle énergétique alternatif se construit à l’échelle territoriale. Progressivement, il se traduit par l’émergence de systèmes productifs locaux, principalement pilotés par les conseils régionaux et les métropoles. Ces processus entraînent des changements, la plupart du temps incrémentaux, mais qui connaissent des phases d’accélération et peuvent entraîner de profondes transformations des systèmes énergétiques. Ils introduisent une différenciation au sein de l’organisation nationale du secteur de l’énergie, d’autant plus puissante qu’elle est portée de manière standardisée. Au vu de l’importance de l’énergie dans la structuration de l’Etat, ces transitions pourraient avoir des effets sur l’action publique et sur l’Etat lui-mêmeOur work focuses on energy transition policies launched by French local authorities through a historical perspective. We analyze renewable energy and energy efficiency local policies as well as grid modernization, especially since their development in the mid-2000s. They are embedded in a process where historical principles guiding public policies in the energy sector are being challenged, especially as regards electricity. This offers opportunities to actors contesting these organizational principles, who promote alternatives they crafted for a few decades. Thanks to policy entrepreneurs mobilizing resources acquired over the course of their career, an alternative territorialized energy model is emerging. Gradually, it gains ground through the development of local production systems, mostly controlled by regional councils and large urban centers. These processes bring about a number of changes, most of them being incremental. However, we identify accelerating periods that can lead to changes of energy systems on a wider scale. They introduce differentiation from the French energy system, organized and controlled at a national scale. These alternatives are standardized, and it makes them more powerful to confront strong path dependency in this area. Since energy policy has been central in the crafting of the French modern state, these transitions could have consequences on public policies in general and on the state itself

Full textAbstract:
La transition énergétique, entendue comme le passage progressif du modèle énergétique actuel à un modèle énergétique fondé essentiellement sur des énergies décarbonées, a induit une responsabilisation accrue des collectivités territoriales et de leurs groupements dans le sens où ils doivent désormais assumer à travers des leviers juridiques particulièrement effectifs et opérationnels une part importante de la mission consistant à accélérer le développement des énergies renouvelables. Dans ce cadre, on assiste depuis le début des années 2000 à un accroissement des compétences des collectivités territoriales et des groupements de collectivités dans les matières touchant de près ou de loin à la transition énergétique, cela témoigne de la prise de conscience par les pouvoirs publics du rôle incontournable de ces collectivités dans la transition énergétique et de la nécessité de renforcer cette intervention à travers la création de compétences ex nihilo ou en procédant à des transferts de compétences de l'État vers les collectivités territoriales. Ce mouvement a été notamment favorisé par la libéralisation du marché de l'énergie qui a créé un terrain fertile à l'intervention économique des collectivités territoriales dans le secteur énergétique. L'objet de cette thèse est de démontrer que la mise en œuvre de la transition énergétique au niveau local est inextricablement liée à la problématique de la décentralisation territoriale et que donc le renforcement de la place de l'échelon local, exigé par la transition énergétique, se heurte aux limites et contradictions de ladite décentralisationThe energy transition, understood as the gradual transition from the current energy model to an energy model based essentially on carbon-free energies, has led to increased accountability of local authorities and their groupings in the sense that they must now assume, through particularly effective and operational legal tools, an important part of the mission consisting in accelerating the development of renewable energies. In this context, since the beginning of the 2000s, we have witnessed an increase in the powers of local authorities and groupings of authorities in matters directly or indirectly related to the energy transition, which testifies to the awareness by the public authorities of the essential role of these communities in the energy transition and the need to strengthen this intervention through the creation of skills ex nihilo or by transferring skills from the central state to the local authorities. This movement has been encouraged particularly by the liberalization of the energy market, which has created fertile ground for the economic intervention of local authorities in the energy sector. The purpose of this thesis is to demonstrate that the implementation of the energy transition at the local level is inextricably linked to the problem of territorial decentralization and that therefore the strengthening of the place of the local level required by the energy transition comes up against to the limits and contradictions of this decentralization

Electronic Thesis or Diss., université Paris-Saclay, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024UPASB073.
Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse a pour objectif d’interroger la place de l’agrosystème et plus spécifiquement l’agroforesterie au prisme du projet de territoire de l’aménageur. Affiché comme une des solutions à l’adaptation au changement climatique et comme modèle d’avenir pour les agrosystèmes, une agroforesterie concertée entre acteurs peut-elle présenter une proposition de transition territoriale ?Les zones urbaines se sont étendues sur les terres agricoles au cours des soixante dernières années. Cet étalement a conduit les pouvoirs publics à réguler les territoires avec des plans de zonage, qui ont eu pour conséquence une spécialisation et une banalisation des paysages dans des franges périurbaines s’étendant dans un maillage complexe de zones logistiques et commerciales. Dans le même temps, l’optimisation mécanique et les profonds changements dans les pratiques agricoles ont conduit à des bouleversements dans les paysages ruraux, des terres elles aussi spécialisées et plus productives où les arbres ont rapidement disparu.S’inscrivant dans un moment d’innovation et de basculement des pratiques agricoles, la France s’est engagée en 2015 dans un projet agro-écologique, dont un des leviers est un plan de développement de l’agroforesterie. Les recherches existantes concernent presque exclusivement les sciences agronomiques et environnementales, et peu les sciences du paysage, de la géographie ou de la sociologie, souvent transdisciplinaires, mêlant théorie et pratique.S’il est convenu que l’agriculteur est par essence créateur de paysage, son action dans le territoire n’est pas considérée comme une composante de l’aménagement à part entière, et la parcelle agricole souvent envisagée comme une «réserve foncière». L’agriculteur se considèrera plutôt comme un producteur de ressources et non de paysage. Dans un contexte où cette production connait une crise importante, la recherche se questionne sur la mutation des pratiques qui s’engage et ses enjeux tant en termes de société, d’économie ou de production paysagère ; comment l’aménageur se place pour les anticiper et les projeter ? Et comment l’exploitant intervient dans cette planification ?En ce sens, l’objectif de la thèse est d’alimenter la réflexion sur l’agroforesterie à la fois comme mode de création de paysages et de nouveaux enjeux sociétaux par des projets concertés. Son objectif est de proposer une réflexion sur les transversalités essentielles entre les domaines complémentaires de l’aménagement et de l’agronomie dans le futur des territoires métropolitains.Cette recherche applique une méthodologie combinant géoagronomie et paysage, centrée sur le terrain, en se confrontant à l’expertise des exploitants, des acteurs du territoire et des paysagistes pour aboutir à un résultat objectif.Les résultats de cette recherche expriment un état des lieux contrasté de la place de l’arbre entre monde rural et urbain, illustrant les défis pragmatiques, politiques et économiques auxquels sont confrontés les territoires comme les exploitants. Malgré l'accent mis sur la transversalité et l'intégration de l'agrosystème dans le projet territorial, la réalité montre que l'exploitant agricole ne se perçoit pas comme une composante majeure de l'aménagement. Bien que l'arbre soit vanté comme un élément incontournable pour l'avenir des villes et des campagnes, son intégration dans le territoire reste aujourd’hui un défi complexe qui nécessite une approche globale et transversaleThis thesis aims to examine the role of agrosystems, specifically agroforestry, through the lens of land use planning from the perspective of developers. Promoted as one of the solutions for adapting to climate change and as a future model for agrosystems, can a collaborative agroforestry approach among stakeholders offer a viable proposal for territorial transition? Urban areas have expanded onto agricultural lands over the past sixty years. This sprawl has led public authorities to regulate territories with zoning plans, resulting in specialization and homogenization of landscapes in peri-urban fringes, within a complex web of logistical and commercial zones. Simultaneously, mechanical optimization and profound changes in agricultural practices have caused disruptions in rural landscapes, where lands have also become specialized and more productive, leading to the rapid disappearance of trees.At a moment of innovation and a shift in agricultural practices, France launched an agro-ecological project in 2015, one of the levers of which is a development plan for agroforestry. Existing research primarily focuses on agronomic and environmental sciences, with little attention given to landscape, geography, or sociology, which often involve transdisciplinary approaches that blend theory and practice.While it is acknowledged that farmers are inherently landscape creators, their actions within the territory are not viewed as a major component of land use planning, and agricultural parcels are often considered as "land reserves." Farmers tend to see themselves more as resource producers rather than landscape creators. In a context where this production is facing significant crises, research questions the transformation of practices that is underway and its implications for society, economy and landscape production. How do developers position themselves to anticipate and project these changes? And how do operators engage in this planning?In this sense, the objective of the thesis is to contribute to the discussion on agroforestry as both a mode of landscape creation and as a response to new societal challenges through collaborative projects. It aims to propose reflections on the essential intersections between the complementary fields of land use planning and agronomy in the future of metropolitan territories.This research employs a methodology that combines geoagronomy and landscape studies, centered on fieldwork, engaging with the expertise of operators, territorial stakeholders, and landscape architects to achieve objective results.The findings of this research reveal contrasting results regarding the place of trees between rural and urban worlds, illustrating the pragmatic, political, and economic challenges faced by both territories and operators. Despite the emphasis on transversality and the integration of the agrosystem within territorial projects, reality shows that farmers do not see themselves as a major component of land use planning. Although trees are considered as essential elements for the future of cities and countryside, their integration into the territory remains a complex challenge that requires a holistic and cross-disciplinary approach

Pour répondre aux enjeux du développement durable, une transition systémique est nécessaire. Notre proposition est d’appliquer, au niveau de l’entreprise, des principes issus d’une approche hybride, entre forecasting (tendances) et principled backcasting. Ces principes proposent des lignes directrices pour chacune des cinq dimensions du développement durable (politique, territoire, Homme, environnement et économie). La méthode développée s’appuie sur le processus stratégique (analyse, choix et déploiement) pour intégrer des dimensions complémentaires dans la conception de produit à travers le réseau interne de création de valeur de l’entreprise étendue. Deux trajectoires ont étés explorées : l’intégration de l’environnement (cas d’études) et du territoire (théorie) dans la conception de produit grâce à l’innovation organisationnelle portée par le renouveau de la gouvernance stratégique et opérationnelle. Cette recherche interdisciplinaire pose les fondations pour le développement d’une méthode permettant de supporter la transition de l’entreprise industrielle vers le développement durable à 5 dimensions, par l’intégration dans le processus de conception de produit de dimensions jusqu’alors peu ou pas exploitéesSystem transition is required.to meet sustainability challenges. Our proposal is to apply general principles from a hybrid approach between forecasting (trends) and principled backcasting to industrial companies. These principles provide guidelines for each of the five dimensions of sustainability (political, territorial, social, environmental and economic). The developed method is based on the strategic process (analyze, choose, deploy) to include additional dimensions in the design of the product through the value constellation of the extended company. Two trajectories are explored: the integration of the environment (case studies) and the territory (theory) in product design through organizational innovation driven by the renewal of strategic and operational governance. This interdisciplinary research lays the foundation for the development of a method to support the transition of industrial companies towards the 5-dimensions sustainable development by integrating new dimensions hitherto little or no exploited in the product design process

Full textAbstract:
L’écologie territoriale est un champ de recherche qui propose d’analyser le fonctionnement d’un territoire sous l’angle des flux de matières et d’énergie qui le traversent et le caractérisent. Cette analyse est notamment menée à travers le concept du métabolisme territorial. Sous cet angle, les flux sont envisagés à la fois dans leur dimension matérielle et à la lumière des systèmes d’acteurs et des enjeux socio-économiques et politiques qui les influencent. L’écologie territoriale tend en cela à mettre en exergue des leviers de transition socio-écologique à l’échelle des territoires.Cette thèse propose la mise à l’épreuve de ces concepts à travers un terrain d’étude situé dans la moyenne vallée du Rhône. En remontant à la fin du XVIIIe siècle, la recherche souligne tout d’abord comment se met en place, à l’échelle de celui-ci, un régime socio-écologique fondé sur l’industrie et les infrastructures lourdes. Ensuite, à partir de l’analyse de quatre types de flux (énergétiques, hydriques, toxiques, alimentaires), la thèse propose de caractériser la manière dont ce régime se matérialise aujourd’hui dans le métabolisme. Ce métabolisme est alors qualifié d’intensif et de toxique – par l’intensité et la toxicité des flux mis en jeu – ainsi que d’absorbant – en ce qu’il assure des fonctions métaboliques répondant aux besoins d’autres territoires (traitement de déchets, production alimentaire). Les caractéristiques de ce métabolisme impliquent alors une faible capacité des acteurs locaux (habitants, acteurs publics, agriculteurs) à agir sur les flux pour leur réduction ou leur transformation. Pourtant, dans un contexte de mutations des systèmes productifs et de résidentialisation, plusieurs initiatives émergent de ces mêmes acteurs locaux pour comprendre et agir sur les flux de matière et d’énergie, dans une perspective de développement territorial durable. Celles-ci conduisent à des formes de remise en question des équilibres de pouvoir existants mais le régime socio-écologique industriel persiste, en partie en ce que les verrous qui le structurent et l’auto-entretiennent ne sont pas questionnésTerritorial ecology is a research field which proposes to analyse the functioning of a territory under the perspective of the flows of matter and energy which passes by and characterize it. This analysis is particularly led through the concept of territorial metabolism. Through this lens, flows are considered in their material dimension but also under the light of the actor systems and of the political and socio-economic issues which influence them. Thus, territorial ecology tends to underline socio-ecological transition levers on the scale of territories.This thesis proposes to test these concepts through a field study in the mid Rhône valley. Looking back to the end of the 18th century, the research firstly underlines how a socio-ecological regime is progressively set around the industry sector and the heavy infrastructures at the scale of the territory. Then, the thesis describes how this regime gets materialized into today’s metabolism through the analysis of four different kinds of flows (energy, water, toxic elements, food). This metabolism is described as intensive and toxic – according to the level of intensity and toxicity of the flows at stake – as well as absorbing – in the way it deals with other territories’ metabolic functions (waste management, food production). These properties of the Rhône-Médian’s metabolism implicate limited capacity for local actors (inhabitants, public actors, farmers) to act towards the reduction or the transformation of these flows. However, within a context of change in production systems and of residentialisation, several local initiatives emerge. Through this process, local actors gain a better understanding and better capabilities to act on the flows of energy and matter in order to engage with sustainable territorial development. These local initiatives lead to several forms of reassessment of existing power relationships but the industrial socio-ecological regime remains, partly because some lock-ins which structure and self-sustain this regime are not questioned

Le système alimentaire mondialisé, caractérisé par une production et une consommation de masse et une dissociation entre producteurs et consommateurs, exerce une pression considérable sur les territoires et leurs ressources. Pour remédier à cette situation, la reterritorialisation de l'alimentation émerge comme une solution prometteuse en vue d'un système alimentaire plus durable. La France se positionne comme précurseur dans cette démarche, notamment grâce au récent développement des Projets Alimentaires Territoriaux (PAT). Ces projets visent à promouvoir une économie alimentaire locale et durable, tout en favorisant les circuits courts. Pourtant, malgré leur potentiel, les répercussions environnementales de ces initiatives demeurent peu étudiées. La plupart des études actuelles comparent les circuits courts et les circuits longs en se concentrant principalement sur l'impact du transport. Elles ne tiennent ainsi pas compte des avantages systémiques liés au développement de pratiques plus durables au sein des systèmes territorialisés. Afin de pallier cette lacune, cette thèse adapte la méthodologie de l'Analyse du Cycle de Vie Territoriale (ACV-T) pour construire et évaluer les systèmes alimentaires territoriaux avec une perspective environnementale et systémique. La méthodologie adaptée est utilisée comme i) outil de diagnostic, ii) évaluation d'actions du PAT et iii) prospective territoriale. L'ACV-T est appliquée à deux territoires français très différents, la municipalité de Mouans-Sartoux dans les Alpes-Maritimes et le département du Finistère. Les deux territoires sont pionniers dans la mise en place de projets alimentaires territoriaux (PAT). L'analyse environnementale de leurs systèmes alimentaires comme diagnostic initial révèle l'ampleur des impacts directs et indirects, notamment liés aux produits importés et aux intrants agricoles. Les résultats montrent que le transport joue un rôle minoritaire dans ces impacts. Les deux territoires dépendent fortement des importations alimentaires pour nourrir leurs habitants. Les circuits courts, et par conséquent leur impact, restent limités. L'évaluation de politiques publiques menées à Mouans-Sartoux au cours des cinq dernières années démontre des bénéfices environnementaux notables. Une réduction d'environ 20 % des impacts environnementaux, notamment en termes de changement climatique et d'usage des terres, est estimée. Dans le cas du Finistère, la construction d'un scénario prospectif met en lumière les avantages potentiels de stratégies territoriales, plus particulièrement en lien avec l'encouragement à développer des pratiques agroécologiques. En conclusion, ce travail pluridisciplinaire montre la pertinence de méthodologies basées sur l'analyse du cycle de vie comme outil d'aide à la planification et à l'évaluation territoriale des systèmes agroalimentaires. Il montre également le potentiel des politiques de reterritorialisation à contribuer à la transition écologique des territoiresThe current climatic and environmental upheavals deeply impact our society and ecosystems. Food production and consumption play an essential role in these disruptions. The globalized food system, characterized by mass production and consumption and a disconnect between producers and consumers, places significant pressure on territories and their resources. To address this, the reterritorialization of food is emerging as a promising solution for a more sustainable food system. France is at the forefront of this initiative, with the recent development of Territorial Food Projects (Projets Alimentaires Territoriaux, PAT) led by local authorities. These projects aim to promote a local and sustainable food economy while supporting short supply chains. However, despite their potential, the environmental impacts of these initiatives remain understudied. Most current studies compare short and long food supply chains, focusing on transportation-related impacts. Consequently, they do not consider the systemic benefits associated with the development of more sustainable practices within local food systems. To respond to this issue, this thesis adapts the Territorial Life Cycle Assessment (TLCA) methodology to assess local food systems from a systemic and environmental perspective. This adapted methodology is applied to two diverse territories in France and their local food systems: the municipality of Mouans-Sartoux and the Finistere department. Both territories are pioneers in implementing food territorial projects (PAT). The environmental assessment of the two local food systems reveals the extent of both direct and indirect impacts, notably related to imported products and agricultural inputs. The results demonstrate that transportation played a minor role in these impacts. Both local systems heavily depend on imports to feed their inhabitants. The short food supply chains, and consequently their impact, remain limited. The assessment of the impact of the Mouans-Sartoux local food policies demonstrates positive effects since their implementation. An estimated reduction in environmental impact equals approximately 20 % of the entire local food system's impact, particularly in terms of climate change and land use. In Finistere, the prospective analysis highlights the potential benefits of local strategies, particularly in connection with the promotion of agroecological practices. In conclusion, this interdisciplinary work confirms the relevance of life cycle assessment methodologies for local planning and assessment. It equally reveals the potential of local food policies to contribute to the ecological transition

Full textAbstract:
L’écologie territoriale est un champ de recherche qui propose d’analyser le fonctionnement d’un territoire sous l’angle des flux de matières et d’énergie qui le traversent et le caractérisent. Cette analyse est notamment menée à travers le concept du métabolisme territorial. Sous cet angle, les flux sont envisagés à la fois dans leur dimension matérielle et à la lumière des systèmes d’acteurs et des enjeux socio-économiques et politiques qui les influencent. L’écologie territoriale tend en cela à mettre en exergue des leviers de transition socio-écologique à l’échelle des territoires.Cette thèse propose la mise à l’épreuve de ces concepts à travers un terrain d’étude situé dans la moyenne vallée du Rhône. En remontant à la fin du XVIIIe siècle, la recherche souligne tout d’abord comment se met en place, à l’échelle de celui-ci, un régime socio-écologique fondé sur l’industrie et les infrastructures lourdes. Ensuite, à partir de l’analyse de quatre types de flux (énergétiques, hydriques, toxiques, alimentaires), la thèse propose de caractériser la manière dont ce régime se matérialise aujourd’hui dans le métabolisme. Ce métabolisme est alors qualifié d’intensif et de toxique – par l’intensité et la toxicité des flux mis en jeu – ainsi que d’absorbant – en ce qu’il assure des fonctions métaboliques répondant aux besoins d’autres territoires (traitement de déchets, production alimentaire). Les caractéristiques de ce métabolisme impliquent alors une faible capacité des acteurs locaux (habitants, acteurs publics, agriculteurs) à agir sur les flux pour leur réduction ou leur transformation. Pourtant, dans un contexte de mutations des systèmes productifs et de résidentialisation, plusieurs initiatives émergent de ces mêmes acteurs locaux pour comprendre et agir sur les flux de matière et d’énergie, dans une perspective de développement territorial durable. Celles-ci conduisent à des formes de remise en question des équilibres de pouvoir existants mais le régime socio-écologique industriel persiste, en partie en ce que les verrous qui le structurent et l’auto-entretiennent ne sont pas questionnésTerritorial ecology is a research field which proposes to analyse the functioning of a territory under the perspective of the flows of matter and energy which passes by and characterize it. This analysis is particularly led through the concept of territorial metabolism. Through this lens, flows are considered in their material dimension but also under the light of the actor systems and of the political and socio-economic issues which influence them. Thus, territorial ecology tends to underline socio-ecological transition levers on the scale of territories.This thesis proposes to test these concepts through a field study in the mid Rhône valley. Looking back to the end of the 18th century, the research firstly underlines how a socio-ecological regime is progressively set around the industry sector and the heavy infrastructures at the scale of the territory. Then, the thesis describes how this regime gets materialized into today’s metabolism through the analysis of four different kinds of flows (energy, water, toxic elements, food). This metabolism is described as intensive and toxic – according to the level of intensity and toxicity of the flows at stake – as well as absorbing – in the way it deals with other territories’ metabolic functions (waste management, food production). These properties of the Rhône-Médian’s metabolism implicate limited capacity for local actors (inhabitants, public actors, farmers) to act towards the reduction or the transformation of these flows. However, within a context of change in production systems and of residentialisation, several local initiatives emerge. Through this process, local actors gain a better understanding and better capabilities to act on the flows of energy and matter in order to engage with sustainable territorial development. These local initiatives lead to several forms of reassessment of existing power relationships but the industrial socio-ecological regime remains, partly because some lock-ins which structure and self-sustain this regime are not questioned

AbstractAlthough urban brownfields hold significant inherent potential, especially in limiting urban sprawl, a large number of sites are still awaiting a regeneration project. Moreover, many of these projects only partially or superficially address sustainability principles. Hence, concrete courses of action are required to support the evolution of current practices towards increased sustainability. These courses of action, which rely on specific skills and adapted supports, require a complementary approach. In other words, strategies should be conducted consistently at the territorial, metropolitan, and project levels. In this regard, the present chapter provides a series of courses of action to be implemented at these levels. Our aim here is to foster the sustainable transition of metropolitan areas, and more precisely brownfield sites, into lively neighbourhoods.

AbstractThe creation of energy communities represents an opportunity to overcome the traditional social acceptance paradigm and sector approach in the energy field. The case study of an energy community in the making in the Alpine region enables experimentation with a territorial and heritage approach to the energy transition. This research project tries to connect together territorial heritage, renewable energy sources, and the local community dimension, identified as a strategic field of action also by European directives on energy. The method of analyzing local heritage energy resources and their contribution to energy mix composition, as well as conducting interviews to identify potential stakeholders to involve in setting up the energy community, reveals the presence of untapped potential, both from energy and social capital perspectives. The enhancement of local energy potential, respecting the concept of limitation in resource use and consistent with the protection of territorial, environmental, and landscape heritage, shows the return to the territory in energy production as a sustainable energy transition perspective.

Eco-territorialist approach to spatial planning overcomes functional approaches assuming as key references man/nature co-evolution, the diverse components of living, the participation of inhabitants to territorial governance, the territorial context not as the object of planning choices but as a real living subject. The territorial context, a both existing and potential heritage for the settled community, is considered as a fundamental 'actant' in the ecological transition process. The reference to some important contributions for the ongoing redefinition of the theoretical methodological statute of the discipline substantiates the challenge of this alternative approach to planning.

The essay outlines the features of an eco-territorialist and patrimonial approach to energy transition, a process that is not taking place with the necessary urgency nor with the desirable consistency with respect to the principles of ecologic-environmental and landscape sustainability. Energy resources, one of the founding components of the urban bioregion, are available in every territory with specific peculiarities; rethinking the energy system in a non-predatory perspective means protecting the reproducibility of such resources and establishing virtuous dynamics creating territorial value added. Energy communities can represent effective tools for the enhancement of local energy heritages still not properly employed, towards a horizon of progressive energy sovereignty of territories.

Nowadays poverty can be defined as a construct that can no longer be ascribed to the material scarcity of resources but to the lack of all available relational, social and cultural resources, that are an expression of a “suffering” territory. This fragility testifies to a problem of educational sustainability that requires an exit from the emergency logic of “buffer interventions” by activating social, training and professional networks, capable of responding to the educational needs expressed by the territory. For this reason, in the epistemic framework of Civil and Digital-Civil Pedagogy, the need emerges for new professional profiles capable of being “managers” of integrated territorial development, educators-planners of territorial educational services with a view to social sustainability and the educational human transition.

AbstractNowadays, the circularity concept dominates the debate on resource management in cities and territories. The idea is often used as a vehicle towards a more sustainable socio-ecological transition, based on the circular economy (CE) framework. Unlike other sustainability frameworks, CE originates in ecological and environmental economics and industrial ecology. It focuses on developing an alternative economic and technological model for production and consumption, avoiding natural resource depletion and redesigning processes and cycles of materials (closed-loops). However, when CE is translated to cities and territories, its environmental, economic and design agency is often neglected. On the one hand, it demands to acknowledge the need for a relational understanding of space, place and actors involved and, on the other, to explore the spatial specificity of CE. Therefore, there is a need for a broader theoretical discourse on the CE’s territoriality as the predominant. Research on circular urban and territorial development demands more than merely upscaling industrial ecosystems diagrams and generating circular businesses. Consequently, what is the role of territory in the CE conceptualisation in the urbanism literature? How to interpret territories through the lens of circularity, which tools, methods are needed? Therefore, territory, its role and meaning in the CE contribution to urban regeneration is the key focus of this text.

AbstractThe European Commission has made sustainable development a central element of its growth strategy for the next few years. From an all-encompassing perspective, the European Green Deal (EGD) represents the EU’s contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the “Smart Specialization Strategy” (S3), and the attempt of the EU at a position of global leadership in sustainable development. This paper states that an effective innovation-oriented policy, including a sustainable dimension, requires an adequate division of labour between the EC, national and regional/local governance levels, and the shift from S3 to S4 +, a smart specialization sustainable strategy. It also underlines how a territorial approach to policies is suitable for incorporating a five-helix innovation model and is well suited for implementing S4 +. Therefore, the Ecological Transition, illustrated in the EGD, requires a new governance design and management attitude. This contribution proposes a framework for implementing the new EGD strategy and the consequent implementation of the sustainability dimension. Numerous challenges focus on the sub-regional level highlighting the Community-Led Local Development (CLLD) as a tailored governance model that can include Sustainability and innovation in a complete democratic setting.

Modern research also does not pay enough attention to the cultural, political and psychological aspects of the consequences of climate change, as well as their role in the development of effective climate change policy.

Full textAbstract:
À la différence de la transition écologique, une transition territoriale, au départ, met à égalité les espaces, les vivants et les choses par rapport à ce qui leur arrive et la situation nouvelle – la réalité administrative d’une région qui devient autre - est muette pour le langage ou stérile pour l’imaginaire. Au contraire, le projet Vu d’ici ce n’est pas si loin s’occupe par sa démarche globale et tout particulièrement par un ouvrage photographique, d’enquêter puis de traduire en vues l’existence de cette nouvelle dimension et la sensation d’être lié à la Nouvelle-Aquitaine d’une manière ou d’une autre. À travers la médiation d’isotopies spatio-temporelles sensibles, nous affirmons que les photographies collectées puis agencées instaurent une économie interprétative. En effet, elles font circuler ces vues comme traces, repères et symbolisations en s’adressant à trois types de participants : les enquêteurs eux-mêmes, par un effet de boucle ; les sujets enquêtés, qu’ils soient présents à l’image ou reliés aux espaces, vivants et choses présentés ; et les lecteurs de l’ouvrage, néo-aquitains ou simples curieux. Ainsi, l’appréhension de ce que peut être une transition territoriale s’enrichit : l’ouvrage nous engage à nous intéresser à l’appariement territorial que crée le régime de transition et aux différentes configurations objectives, subjectives, vécues et imaginatives qu’il déploie à partir d’un « paradigme moléculaire » (Hébert 1995 : 71).

The green transition involves different economic, social and territorial impacts that have been explored in the four year research project “Not Just a Green Transition – Examining the path towards a socially just green transition in the Nordic Region” (short name: NJUST). The result is the Nordic Toolbox for a Just Green Transition, which contributes to a transition towards a climate neutral Nordic Region that is socially just. The comprehensive and interactive toolbox offers guidance for Nordic policymakers to navigate challenges, listen to those affected, and get inspired. The toolbox highlights six priority areas for enabling a just green transition, and offers policy memos from four socially at-risk groups: older adults, youth, people with disabilities and those at risk of unemployment. Through practical tools and examples, a structured checklist, policymakers can gain insights into how to take action for a transition that is not only green – but equitable too.

Full textAbstract:
Considering that in Colombia most of the victims of forced displacement looked for shelter in the cities, the urban dimension should be included in the processes of reparation and restitution of rights within a transitional and restorative justice framework. Under this approach, Comprehensive Habitat Upgrading (CHU) becomes relevant as a strategy for the construction of urban territorial peace. This tool contributes to the consolidation of fairer cities through the provision of adequate housing, basic urban services, and access to the opportunities in self-built popular neighbourhoods, and may support the victims of the internal conflict in their search for settlement, identity, and memory. This policy brief provides public policy recommendations for decision makers to articulate CHU and peacebuilding with a rights-based, differential and intersectional approach that allows to assist both vulnerable urban communities and multiple subjects of reparation who came to the cities in search of new life opportunities.

Full textAbstract:
Subnational development banks (SDBs) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) provide financing to regional and local governments, subnational entities, and small and medium enterprises (SMEs), but generally lack information about how they can support the transition toward net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and environmental sustainability. This document describes how SDBs can support blended financing arrangements that combine both public and private resources, leveraging their comparative advantage in mitigating the high risks that private lenders perceive of working with actors at the subnational level. The document provides illustrative cases from both regional and international contexts of how public development banks can mobilize private capital for local economic development. It concludes with strategic recommendations for SDBs to increase sustainable financing for a just urban and territorial transition and for the Alliance of Subnational Development Banks in Latin America and the Caribbean as a platform to foster a regional dialogue that can increase financial innovation across the region.

Tapia, Carlos, Nora Sanchez Gassen, and Anna Lundgren. In all fairness: perceptions of climate policies and the green transition in the Nordic Region. Nordregio, May 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.6027/r2023:5.1403-2503.
Full textAbstract:
The survey presented in this report reveals that Nordic citizens are concerned about climate change. Many people are willing to increase efforts to fight climate change, even if this entails a personal contribution in terms of higher taxes or behavioural change. The survey shows that different social groups perceive the impacts of climate change and climate mitigation policies in different ways. In general, attitudes towards climate policies and perceptions regarding their fairness are conditioned by socio-demographic factors such as gender, age, employment status, type of housing and transport behaviour. General attitudes towards climate change and climate policies The first part of this report explores general attitudes towards climate change and climate policies. This section shows that seven in ten (71%) respondents think that climate change is a serious or very serious problem, particularly among the youngest age group (18-29 years). Three in four (74%) interviewed persons in this group share this view. Those with a university degree are more concerned about climate change (83%) than those with primary or secondary education (57% and 62%, respectively). Approximately half (48-51%) of respondents in all age groups agree that more financial resources should be invested in preventing climate change, even if this would imply an increase in taxes. The survey results show that women in the Nordic Region are more concerned about climate change than men (79% compared to 64%). It also reveals that people living in urban areas are more worried about climate change (82%) than those who live in towns and suburbs (68%) or in rural areas (62%). Urban dwellers are also more positive about investing more resources in preventing climate change (59%) than those who live in rural areas (39%) and in towns and suburbs (46%). More than half of the respondents (52%) agree that taking further action on climate change would be beneficial for the economy. Students, unemployed and retired people are more likely to agree with this view (55%, 57% and 55%, respectively) than those currently in employment, including the self-employed (50%). Those employed in carbon-intensive sectors are less positive about the expected economic impact of climate policies than those who work in other economic sectors (41% compared to 55%). They are also more concerned about the risk of job losses during the transition to a low-carbon economy than those employed in sectors with lower carbon intensity (37% compared to 24%). Concerns about this issue are also higher among those who live in rural areas (31%) or towns and suburbs (30%) compared to those who live in cities (22%). Present and future effects of climate change mitigation policies on individuals and households The central part of the survey explores perceptions regarding the present and future impacts of climate policies. Such challenges are perceived differently depending on specific sociodemographic conditions. Nearly one fourth (23%) of respondents state that high energy costs mean they are struggling to keep their homes at a comfortable temperature. Those living in houses report being more impacted (27%) than those living in apartments (18%), and those using fossil fuels to heat their homes are most affected (44%). The risk of energy poverty is also higher among non-EU immigrants to the Nordic Region. Those who say they are struggling to keep their homes at a comfortable temperature range from 23% among Nordic-born citizens to 37% among non-EU immigrants. Nearly three in ten respondents (28%) have modified their transportation behaviour during the last year due to high fuel costs. This proportion is substantially greater among those living in towns and suburbs (32%) compared to those who live in rural areas (29%) or cities (23%). The majority of the Nordic population (52%) states that current climate policies have a neutral effect on their household economies. However, 28% of respondents say they are negatively impacted by climate policies in economic terms. Men report being negatively affected more frequently than women (33% vs 22%, respectively). People who live in houses are more likely to claim they are being negatively impacted than people who live in apartments (31% and 23%, respectively). Nearly half (45%) of the respondents in the Nordic Region agree that climate initiatives will improve health and well-being, and half of the respondents (50%) think that climate change initiatives will lead to more sustainable lifestyles in their area. However, half (51%) of the Nordic population expect to see increases in prices and the cost of living as a consequence of climate policies, and those who believe that climate policies will create jobs and improve working conditions in the areas where they live (31% and 24%, respectively) are outnumbered by those who believe the opposite (35% and 34%, respectively). Fairness of climate policies The last section of the report looks at how the Nordic people perceive the fairness of climate policies in distributional terms. In the survey, the respondents were asked to judge to what extent they agree or disagree that everyone in their country or territory is equally affected by initiatives to fight climate change regardless of personal earnings, gender, age, country of origin and where they live – cities or rural areas. The results show that the Nordic people believe climate change initiatives affect citizens in different ways depending on their demographic, socioeconomic and territorial backgrounds. More than half of the respondents (56%) disagree that everyone is equally affected by initiatives to fight climate change regardless of earnings. Only 22% agree with this statement. Younger age groups are more pessimistic than older age groups on this point (66% in the 18-29 age group compared to 41% in the 65+ group). Almost half of respondents (48%) agree that climate policies are fair from a gender perspective, while 25% disagree with this statement and 23% are neutral. Roughly one in three (30%) respondents in the Nordic Region agree that people are equally affected by climate change initiatives regardless of age, 41% disagree with this statement and 25% are neutral. More than one third (35%) of the Nordic population agree that everyone is equally affected by initiatives to fight climate change regardless of the country of origin, while 34% of them disagree. More than half of respondents (56%) think that the impact of climate initiatives differs between rural and urban areas, while only 22% think that all areas are equally affected. Respondents who live in cities are more likely to respond that climate policy impacts differ between rural and urban areas (60%) than respondents who live in rural areas (55%) and towns and suburbs (53%). One third (33%) of respondents in the survey think that the Sámi population is affected by climate change initiatives to the same extent as the rest of the population. In Greenland, a majority of the population (62%) agrees that the indigenous population in Greenland is equally affected by measures to combat climate change. The results from this survey conducted in the autumn of 2022, show that the population in the Nordic Region perceive the impacts of climate mitigation policies in different ways. These results can raise awareness and stimulate debate about the implementation of climate mitigation policies for a just green transition.

Review of the cases of Grand Est/Grand Reims, Scotland, North Rhine-Westphalia and "energy regions" in the Netherlands. Edited by Patricia Canto. Universidad de Deusto, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.18543/hhib8803.
Full textAbstract:
This report reviews the energy transition and decarbonization strategies of three European regions (Grand Est/Grand Reims, in France; Scotland, in the United Kingdom; and North Rhine-Westphalia, in Germany) and the "energy regions" defined in the Netherlands at the sub-provincial level. The aim of the paper is to characterize these strategies and the associated action plans and to extract lessons and learnings with potential application in the Basque Country on how other territories and regions are approaching, from a subnational perspective, the process of greenhouse gas emissions reduction and energy transition. The analysis of the cases under study shows the importance of (a) designing strategies and solutions adapted to the economic, energy and social reality of each territory, (b) establishing governance systems that promote efficient collaboration between agents and social support for the transition, (c) involving the R&D, training and financing ecosystems in the support of innovative business fabric and in the development of systemic solutions for the decarbonization of the different sectors of activity.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to substandard elements which are considered as one of the components in the system of urban forms of communication. The Object of our research is substandard vocabulary, the Subject is structural characteristics of the modern city language, the Purpose of the study is to define the main types of substandard vocabulary and their role in the system of urban communication. The theoretical base of our research includes the scientific works of native and foreign linguists, which are devoted to urban linguistics (B. Larin, M. Makovskyi, V. Labov, T. Yerofeieva, L. Pederson, R. McDavid, O. Horbach, L. Stavytska, Y. Stepanov, S. Martos). Different lexical and phraseological units, taken from the Ukrainian, Russian and American Dictionaries of slang and jargon, serve as the material of our research. The main components of the city language include literary language, territorial dialects, different intermediate transitional types, which are used in the colloquial everyday communication but do not have territorial limited character, and social dialects. The structural characteristics, proposed in the article, demonstrate the variety and correlation of different subsystems of the city language. Today peripheral elements play the main role in the city communication. They are also called substandard, non-codified, marginal, non-literary elements or the jargon styles of communication. Among substandard elements of the city language the most important are social dialects, which include such subsystems as argot, jargon and slang. The origin, functioning and characteristics of each subsystem are studied on the material of linguistic literature of different countries. It is also ascertained that argot is the oldest form of sociolects, jargon divides into corporative and professional ones, in the structure of slangy words there are common and special slang. Besides, we can speak about sociolectosentrism of the native linguistics and linguemosentrism of the English tradition of slang nomination. Except social dialects, the important structural elements of the city language are also intermediate transitional types, which include koine, colloquialisms, interdialect, surzhyk, pidgin and creole. Surzhyk can be attributed to the same type of language formations as pidgin and creole because these types of oral speech were created mostly by means of the units mixing of the obtruded language of the parent state with the elements of the native languages.

Neoproterozoic-Cambrian stratigraphy of the Mackenzie Mountains, northwestern Canada, part IV: a stratigraphic reference section for the Ediacaran-Cambrian transition in NTS 95-M (Wrigley Lake map area). Natural Resources Canada/CMSS/Information Management, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.4095/329217.
Full textAbstract:
A composite reference section for the upper Ediacaran and lower Cambrian is documented for a location near Moose Horn River in Wrigley Lake map area (NTS 95-M), Mackenzie Mountains, Northwest Territories. Four measured stratigraphic sections cover, in ascending order: the uppermost Sheepbed Formation; the informal Sheepbed carbonate; the lower, middle, and upper members of the Backbone Ranges Formation; the Sekwi Formation; and the lowermost beds of the Rockslide Formation. The uppermost Sheepbed Formation is dominated by dark-weathering shale and siltstone. The Sheepbed carbonate (440 m) lies conformably on the Sheepbed Formation and consists of limestone, dolostone, and dolomitic siltstone, including several horizons of rudstone with clasts up to boulder size. The upper surface of the Sheepbed carbonate has been eroded and the unit thins to a zero edge to the east. The lower member of the Backbone Ranges Formation (253 m) is heterolithic, including interbedded quartzose siltstone and quartzose sandstone, quartz arenite (locally with horizons of quartz pebbles), and dolostone to dolomitic sandstone. The middle member of the Backbone Ranges Formation (93 m) consists mainly of pink to grey-weathering limestone with red mudstone partings. The upper member (501.5 m) is dominated by quartz arenite, but also contains intervals of siltstone. Partway through the upper member there is a marker unit of dolostone to dolomitic sandstone that previous work suggests is a tongue of the Ediacaran Risky Formation. Based on regional correlations, the top of this marker may approximate the Ediacaran-Cambrian boundary in this section. The Sekwi Formation lies abruptly upon the Backbone Ranges Formation. The contact is unconformable at this locality and mapping in the area indicates eastward erosional removal of the upper member of the Backbone Ranges Formation beneath the Sekwi Formation. The Sekwi Formation here consists of variegated siltstone with lesser dolostone, limestone, and quartz sandstone. An abrupt contact with nodular limestone and grey shale of the overlying Rockslide Formation approximates the base of Cambrian Series 3.

Full textAbstract:
The Geological Survey of Canada undertook a mineral resource assessment for a proposed national park in northern Canada (~ 33,500 km2) spanning the transition from boreal forest to barren lands tundra. Bedrock geology of this region is complex and includes the Archean Slave Craton, the Archean and Paleoproterozoic Rae domain of the Churchill Province, the Paleoproterozoic Thelon and Taltson magmatic-tectonic zones, and the Paleoproterozoic East Arm sedimentary basin. The area has variable mineral potential for lode gold, kimberlite-hosted diamonds, VMS, vein uranium and copper, SEDEX, as well as other deposit types. A comparison of analytical methods was carried out after processing the field collected samples to acquire both the < 2 mm and for the < 0.063 mm size fractions for 241 surficial sediment (till) samples, collected using a 10 x 10 km grid. Analytical methods comprised: 1) aqua regia followed by ICP-MS analysis, 2) 4-acid hot dissolution followed by ICP-ES/MS analysis, 3) lithium metaborate/tetraborate fusion methods followed by ICP-ES for major elements and ICP-MS for trace elements and, 4) portable XRF on dried, non-sieved sediment samples subjected to a granular segregation processing technique (to produce a clay-silt proxy) for seventeen elements (Ba, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mn, Ni, Pb, Rb, Sr, Th, Ti, U, V, Zn, and Zr) Results indicate that pXRF data do not replicate exactly the laboratory 4-acid and fusion data (in terms of precision and accuracy), but the relationship between the datasets is systematic as displayed in x-y scattergrams. Interpolated single element plots indicate that till samples with anomalies of high and low pXRF concentration levels are synonymous with high and low laboratory-based analytical concentration levels, respectively. The pXRF interpolations thus illustrate the regional geochemical trends, and most importantly, the significant geochemical anomalies in the surficial samples. These results indicate that pXRF spectrometry for a subset of elements is comparable to traditional laboratory methods. pXRF spectrometry also provides the benefit of rapid analysis and data acquisition that has a direct influence on real time sampling designs. This information facilitates efficient and cost-effective field projects (i.e. where used to identify regions of interest for high density sampling), and to prioritize samples to be analyzed using traditional geochemical methods. These tactics should increase the efficiency and success of a mineral exploration and/or environmental sampling programs.

Full textAbstract:
The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) is an international comparative study of student achievement directed by the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA). TIMSS was first conducted in 1995 and the 2023 assessment formed the eighth cycle, providing 28 years of trends in mathematics and science achievement at Year 4 and Year 8. In Australia, TIMSS is managed by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) and is jointly funded by the Australian Government and the state and territory governments. TIMSS is a key part of Australia’s National Assessment Program. The goal of TIMSS is to provide comparative information about educational achievement across countries to improve teaching and learning in mathematics and science. TIMSS is based on a research model that uses the curriculum, within context, as its foundation. TIMSS is designed, broadly, to align with the mathematics and science curricula used in the participating education systems and countries, and focuses on assessment at Year 4 and Year 8. TIMSS also provides important data about students’ contexts for learning mathematics and science based on questionnaires completed by students and their parents, teachers and school principals. The 2023 cycle of TIMSS completed its transition to a digital assessment; this was the first time it was offered as a completely online assessment. TIMSS 2023 also expanded its scope to assess environmental knowledge and attitudes. This new component provides valuable insights into students’ understanding of environmental issues, including climate change, biodiversity, and conservation. This report presents the results for Australia as a whole, for the Australian states and territories and for the other groups in TIMSS 2023. The results can be viewed in an international context, and student performance can be monitored over time. The results also allow for nationally comparable reports of student outcomes against the Alice Springs (Mparntwe) Education Declaration (Education Council, 2019).
