La politique de logement en Algérie, longtemps négligée dans les études juridiques malgré son importance, est mise en lumière. Son évolution historique, marquée par des pratiques coloniales discriminatoires, ainsi que les réformes post-indépendance visant à corriger ces inégalités, avec un accent particulier sur le logement social, sont soulignées. À partir des années 1980, le secteur privé a été progressivement intégré à la politique de logement, sous l'influence d'institutions internationales. L'étude se focalise sur le cadre juridique algérien, sans effectuer de comparaison avec d'autres systèmes, et adopte une approche interdisciplinaire pour analyser les dimensions juridiques et socio-économiques. Cependant, des difficultés sont rencontrées en raison du manque de recherches doctrinales et de données fiables.Cette recherche interroge la cohérence et l'efficacité des lois sur le logement en Algérie, souvent coûteuses pour l'État, et explore des alternatives telles que les partenariats public-privé. Elle met en évidence l'ambiguïté du cadre juridique, où le droit au logement, bien qu'inscrit dans la Constitution, demeure principalement symbolique. L'étude est structurée en deux parties : une analyse du cadre juridique et une évaluation critique des politiques de logement, avec des propositions de réformes pour améliorer leur cohérence et efficacité.L'évolution de la politique du logement en Algérie a été marquée par la diversité des stratégies adoptées, dominées par un acteur central : l'État. Après l'indépendance, l'État a pris en charge la politique du logement de manière exclusive, une situation justifiée par le contexte post-colonial. Toutefois, avec le temps, cette domination étatique a montré ses limites, rendant nécessaire l'implication d'autres acteurs. Le désengagement progressif de l'État visait à instaurer une coopération avec le secteur privé, mais celui-ci n'était pas suffisamment préparé pour prendre le relais, ce qui a complexifié l'application des politiques et la législation en matière de logement.Le changement de cette politique est également influencé par des questions budgétaires. Les investissements massifs dans la construction de logements ont entraîné des coûts financiers exorbitants, nécessitant des réformes. Il est de plus en plus reconnu que l'État ne peut plus être l'unique fournisseur de logements. Une approche plus diversifiée et coopérative est prônée, bien que les tentatives de changement soient marquées par des ambiguïtés et des résistances.La politique de logement en Algérie, malgré des investissements considérables et une volonté affichée de répondre aux besoins en logements, montre des limites en termes d'efficacité et de viabilité financière. Bien que des efforts aient été faits pour combler le déficit de logements, les résultats n'ont pas répondu aux attentes, et la politique est souvent perçue comme coûteuse et mal adaptée, persistant malgré des obstacles récurrents.Contrairement à la tendance mondiale vers des politiques néolibérales, l'Algérie a choisi de maintenir une politique sociale forte, en particulier dans le domaine du logement. Bien que cette approche soit reconnue par certaines organisations internationales, elle devient de plus en plus difficile à soutenir financièrement et à rendre véritablement efficace. Cette persistance suscite des critiques, certains estimant que la politique de logement sert davantage des intérêts politiques que ceux des citoyens.La complexité administrative, les réglementations multiples, et le manque de contribution significative des juristes algériens freinent également le progrès. Le droit du logement en Algérie est peu développé, rendant urgente la nécessité de repenser la politique en profondeur. Il devient indispensable d'intégrer de nouveaux acteurs économiques et de mieux structurer juridiquement le secteur pour garantir un avenir plus durable et efficace
The housing policy in Algeria, long overlooked in legal studies despite its importance, is brought to light. Its historical evolution, marked by discriminatory colonial practices, as well as post-independence reforms aimed at addressing these inequalities with a particular focus on social housing, are highlighted. Since the 1980s, the private sector has been gradually integrated into housing policy, under the influence of international institutions. The study focuses on the Algerian legal framework without comparing it to other systems, and adopts an interdisciplinary approach to analyze the legal and socio-economic dimensions. However, challenges arise due to the lack of doctrinal research and reliable data.This research questions the coherence and effectiveness of housing laws in Algeria, which are often costly for the state, and explores alternatives such as public-private partnerships. It highlights the ambiguity of the legal framework, where the right to housing, although enshrined in the Constitution, remains largely symbolic. The study is structured in two parts: an analysis of the legal framework and a critical evaluation of housing policies, with reform proposals to improve their coherence and effectiveness.The evolution of housing policy in Algeria has been marked by the diversity of strategies adopted, dominated by a central actor: the state. After independence, the state exclusively controlled housing policy, a situation justified by the post-colonial context. However, over time, this state dominance has shown its limits, making the involvement of other actors necessary. The state's gradual withdrawal aimed to establish cooperation with the private sector, but the latter was not sufficiently prepared to take over, complicating the implementation of policies and housing legislation.This policy shift is also influenced by budgetary concerns. Massive investments in housing construction have led to exorbitant financial costs, necessitating reforms. It is increasingly recognized that the state can no longer be the sole provider of housing. A more diversified and cooperative approach is being advocated, although attempts at change are marked by ambiguities and resistance.The housing policy in Algeria, despite considerable investments and a clear intent to meet housing needs, shows limitations in terms of efficiency and financial sustainability. While efforts have been made to address the housing deficit, the results have not met expectations, and the policy is often perceived as costly and poorly adapted, persisting despite recurring obstacles.Unlike the global trend towards neoliberal policies, Algeria has chosen to maintain a strong social policy, particularly in the housing sector. Although this approach is recognized by some international organizations, it is becoming increasingly difficult to sustain financially and to make truly effective. This persistence has drawn criticism, with some arguing that the housing policy serves political interests more than those of the citizens.Administrative complexity, multiple regulations, and the lack of significant contribution from Algerian legal scholars also hinder progress. Housing law in Algeria is underdeveloped, making it urgent to rethink the policy in depth. It is essential to integrate new economic actors and to better structure the legal framework of the sector to ensure a more sustainable and effective future

This study investigates the status and habitat characteristics of the Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperi), the Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus), the Broadwinged Hawk (Buteo platvpterus), and the Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo 'amaicensis) in East-central Indiana to provide information useful for the conservation of these species. Surveys of hawks were conducted using taped Great-horned Owl broadcasts at 350 points between April and July, 1995 and 1996. The relative abundance was estimated using the proportion of area occupied technique. Estimates of the proportion of area occupied by each species ranged from 4% to 34%. Red-tailed Hawks were estimated to occupy 34% of the area surveyed. Estimates of the area occupied by Cooper's Hawks was 8% and by Red-shouldered Hawks was 4%. Broad-winged Hawks only occupied two points, therefore no estimate of the area occupied was determined. Macro-habitat characteristics were quantified for each species within a 0.8-km radius of the center of each occupied area and were compared with randomly selected unoccupied areas. Large forested areas with less human development were most preferred by Red-shouldered and Broad-winged Hawks. Cooper's hawks and Red-tailed hawks were found in a wide variety of habitat types.

Twenty-one sites were surveyed for star-nosed mole (Condylura cristata) activity during May-October, 2001 and 2002. Star-nosed moles were live-trapped and their habitat characteristics were quantified and compared to habitat characteristics at nonuse sites, as well as capture sites of three other small mammal species: the short-tailed shrew (Blarina brevicauda), the whitefooted mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) and the meadow vole (Microtus pennsylvanicus). Star-nosed moles were captured at sites characterized by moist, clay-loam soils with a slightly acidic pH, prominent horizontal cover, and a nearby water source. Starnosed mole habitat was similar to that of short-tailed shrews and white-footed mice, but differed from that of meadow voles.

Grass pickerel were collected in rivers and streams throughout Indiana for diet analysis. Frequency of occurrence, mean percent volume, and relative importance index were calculated for diet from all grass pickerel stomachs containing food. Grass pickerel were divided into three size classes (57-95mm, 96-150mm, >150mm) and stomach contents were divided into four groups (insects, fish, crayfish, and other). Grass pickerel in the small size class consumed mostly fish and crayfish while in the largest size class mostly crayfish were ingested. In addition, habitat selection was identified for grass pickerel. Macro and microhabitat were evaluated and described using the Qualitative Habitat Evaluation Index and visual assessment. Grass pickerel selected habitat with slow moving water and instream cover of either logs/woody debris or aquatic macrophytes.

The Cerulean Warbler (Dendroica cerulea), a once common summer inhabitant and breeder in southern Indiana, has declined at both local and continental population levels. Effects of specific silvicultural practices on the distribution and abundance of the Cerulean Warbler is unknown. During the summers of 2005 & 2006, Cerulean Warblers were surveyed within the Morgan-Monroe and Yellowwood state forests, as well as the Hoosier National Forest in southern Indiana. Three forest types were surveyed; unharvested reference sites were compared with single tree selection treatments and treatments where a combination of group and single tree selection was used. Mean bird abundance was estimated from bird surveys to determine if a correlation exists between silvicultural regimes and Cerulean Warbler abundance. Cerulean Warblers were located in all treatment types, with no significant differences in abundance between or among treatment types examined. These results suggest that uneven-age management practices, such as single tree and group selection harvesting, provide suitable breeding habitat for Cerulean Warblers.Knowledge of Cerulean Warbler (Dendroica cerulea) male pairing status based on song rates and frequencies, as well as familiarity with non-song vocalizations could be an effective management tool when studying this species. Cerulean Warblers were recorded throughout the breeding season, and 18 song variables were measured and compared between paired and unpaired males using Logistic Regression. Unpaired males had higher song rates and higher minimum frequencies than paired male counterparts. Female and fledgling call notes were also recorded and quantitatively analyzed. These analyses offer further understanding of intraspecific call functions of this species.

Relationships between fish assemblage composition and substrate variation is poorly understood in large rivers. Information on fishes occurrence and behavior and substrate variation were examined in field observations for the Middle Wabash River and fine scale artificial streams experiments. The results from field observations suggested strong concordance for variation in abundance of fishes with habitat variation among sites, resulting in a longitudinal river gradient as dominant in the Middle Wabash River. In addition, shifts in fish behavior within artificial stream experiments demonstrated that species-specific habitat selection behaviors were influenced by interactions within a fish assemblage. The combination of artificial stream experiments and field observations can identify fine scale trends that bioassessment surveys cannot tease apart, and highlighting the need to examine species-habitat relationships at more than one scale.

L’étude des déplacements des baleines à bosse (Megaptera novaeangliae) en relation avec les paramètres environnementaux permet d’apporter des informations précieuses sur leur distribution et leurs préférences d’habitats. Grâce à des données d’observations opportunistes collectées dans le canal de Sainte Marie (Nord-Est de Madagascar) et des données de télémétrie collectées pour cette étude (25 baleines équipées de balises Argos), cette thèse a pour objectif l’étude des déplacements et de l’utilisation de l’habitat des baleines à bosse de Madagascar en fonction du sexe et du statut reproducteur. Des variables physiographiques et océanographiques (mesurées par satelllite) ont été extraites sous chaque position. Un schéma général d’utilisation de l’habitat en période de reproduction a également été proposé à partir de données de télémétrie provenant de différentes zones de reproduction de l’Hémisphère Sud: le Brésil (n=82 individus), l’Australie de l’Ouest (n=26) et l’Australie de l’Est (n=11). Dans le canal de Sainte Marie, nos résultats ont montré une ségrégation temporelle d’un mois avec une première partie de saison dominée par les groupes avec baleineaux et une seconde dominée par les groupes sans baleineaux (Chapitre III). La profondeur influence la distribution des groupes sociaux avec une préférence des couples mère-baleineau pour les plus faibles profondeurs (< 20 m). Le long de la côte de Madagascar, les déplacements localisés des femelles sont associés à des habitats plus profonds et plus éloignés de la côte que ce qui avait été supposé (Chapitre IV). En revanche, les mâles ne semblent pas montrer de préférences d’habitats particuliers bien qu’ils diminuent leur vitesse de nage dans les zones peu profondes. En zone océanique, les individus se déplacent de façon plus erratique dans les eaux les moins profondes, de faible courant ou les plus riches en chlorophylle a. La vitesse du courant de surface ne semble pas être un facteur majeur dans le déplacement des baleines à bosse. Cependant, elles semblent suivre la même direction que celui-ci lorsque ce dernier est fort. Notre étude comparative entres les zones de reproduction a montré que la distribution spatiale varie selon la période de la saison, entre les sites étudiés et selon le sexe (Chapitre V). En début et fin de saison, les mâles se déplacent de manière plus directe et exploitent des zones plus au large que les femelles, notamment celles avec baleineau. Au pic de la saison, les mâles et les femelles effectuent des déplacements plus localisés. La prise en compte des différences dans la variabilité spatio-temporelle des mâles et des femelles en zone de reproduction apparait être une nécessité pour mieux comprendre l’écologie des baleines à bosse et contribuer à la conservation de l’espèce
Of key importance for the comprehension of humpback whales’ (Megaptera novaeangliae) distribution patterns and habitat use is to quantify how ecological and environmental factors affect the distribution of animals, which requires knowledge on dispersal movements of individuals. Using an opportunistic sightings dataset collected in the Sainte Marie Channel (Northeast of Madagascar) and satellite telemetry data acquired for this study (25 tagged whales), the aim of this thesis was to study the movements and the habitat use of humpback whales in Madagascar during the breeding season, according to sex and reproductive status. Physiographic and oceanographic variables (measured by satellite) were extracted under each position. A general distribution pattern of habitat use during the breeding season was also proposed based on additional humpback whales tracks from others breeding grounds of the Southern Hemisphere: Brazil (n=82 individuals), the Western Australian coast (n=26), and the Eastern Australian coast (n=11). In the Sainte-Marie Channel, groups without calves dominated the first 30 days of the breeding season, followed by an increase in groups with calves (Chapter III). Water depth influenced the distribution of social groups with mother-calf pairs more frequently found in relatively shallow water (0-20 m). Along the coast of Madagascar, over the shelf, females showed localized behavior in deep water and at large distances from shore suggesting that their breeding habitat extends beyond the shallow coastal waters (Chapter IV). Males’ active swimming speed decreased in shallow waters, but we found no influence of environmental parameters on males’ movements. In oceanic habitats, both males and females showed localized behaviors in shallow waters and high surface chlorophyll-a concentrations. The active swimming speed accounts for a large proportion of the whale observed speed while observed direction of tagged whales tending to be closer to the current direction when the current intensity was high. Our comparative study between breeding areas showed that the spatial distribution varies according to the period of the season, between the studied sites, sex and breeding status (Chapter V). Early and late in the season, males moved more directly and in more offshore areas than females, especially females with calves. At the peak of the season, both males and females performed more localized movements than at the other periods. Accounting for differences in the spatio-temporal variability of the distribution of males and females in the breeding grounds seems a necessity to better understand the humpback whales ecology and contribute to the species conservation

This study examined general habitat needs for a selected large predatory mammal. Identifying the physical and psychological needs of Canis lupus was the main focus. The objective of the creative project was to design a facility that will not only preserve the animal but also its behaviors.The study consisted of three phases. The first phase consisted of researching wild predators and the natural habitats in which they reside as well as designed habitats for these same predators. This phase included examination and evaluation of various design projects that have attempted to meet the needs of large predatory mammals. The second phase consisted of establishing design guidelines that ensure healthy habitats for wolves. The design guidelines were established by synthesizing information researched about habitats for wild wolves and habitats provided to captive wolves. The third phase consisted of the application of these guidelines in a site design.

Dans le contexte des effets de la mondialisation sur une économie émergente, le travail de recherche présenté ici s’attache à démontrer le processus d’ouverture internationale du manager industriel indien. Face aux mutations auxquelles sont confrontées les entreprises de la dixième économie mondiale, il est à la fois l’acteur de l’internationalisation et l’objet des transformations induites par celle-ci. Une recherche empirique et qualitative menée dans des entreprises industrielles indiennes décrit et modélise cette ouverture internationale pour la catégorie des managers intermédiaires, par le biais d’un programme de formation supérieure en gestion international indien, qui sert de cas d’étude : le Post Graduate Diploma in Management for Exécutive – PGDMX- dont le modèle réfèrent est américain. S’appuyant sur une analyse réflexive du discours de managers indiens diplômés PGPMX, ce travail s’attache à s’interroger sur l’homogénéité des pratiques et des théories managériales vis-à-vis de la spécificité de la culture du management à l’indienne. La mobilisation des concepts de la théorie de la pratique de Pierre Bourdieu, conduit à porter son attention sur l’existence d’un habitus international, et d’un gain en capital symbolique, culturel et social pour le manager diplômé du PGPMX. Les résultats montrent aussi une tension entre les nouveaux principes managériaux et les valeurs ancrées dans la culture indienne, en même temps qu’un processus « d’indigénisation sociale » du diplôme. Ce travail s’adresse, certes, aux entreprises publiques indiennes et en particulier aux services RH sur la gestion des talents, mais aussi aux Ecoles de management en Inde et en Occident; ainsi qu'aux entrepreneurs étrangers qui souhaitent développer des activités en Inde, en mettant en évidence la force de la violence symbolique, liée à toute intrusion culturelle, et source de résistance de par la nature autonome de la tradition indienne, à la fois industrielle, culturelle, et humaine
In the context of the effects of globalization on an emerging economy, the research presented here is aimed at demonstrating the process of internationalization of middle managers in Indian industrial enterprises, via advanced management training. These very large public enterprises are both, key actors engaged in deploying globalization effects, and the objects of those transformations. Based on empirical and qualitative study, using semi-structured interviews carried out in these large Indian industrial enterprises, what follows is a report describing and modeling the internationalization of a panel of former participants of a Post Graduated Diploma in Management for Executives (PGPMX), of American MBA inspiration. The originality of this research is to offer a reflexive report of the nature of this training, as the participants experienced it, and the consequences for them professionally and personally. This allows the investigation of the fit of managerial practices and theory as offered by business schools, using the US model vis-à-vis the managerial demands in Indian enterprises, wrapped in the specificities of the Indian culture. As an interpretative strategy, the data gathered from the extensive field work was treated in reference to the project of Pierre Bourdieu—with particular attention to the figure of habitus, and special focus on modifications of capital’—symbolic, cultural and social; Result show a gain in all three, and reveal a residual tension between the new management principles, and the traditional values. This research, should be of value for the Human Resource Development function of Indian Industrial Enterprises, and for the schools of management—both Indian and Western, that offer these training programs. It should also interest foreign enterprises that seek entry into the Indian market, by enabling a better comprehension of the ‘symbolic violence’, associated with the intrusion of foreign cultural practices and values

The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between fish assemblage structure and habitat in streams dominated by an agricultural landscape. Fishes from 20 natural and 20 channelized streams were sampled using electrofishing gear in East Central Indiana. Streams that had been channelized had a lower quality fish assemblage when compared to natural streams as measured by the Indiana V. Eastern Corn Belt Plain Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI). Stream habitat was evaluated using the Qualitative Habitat Evaluation Index (QHEI), which indicated that channelized streams had lower quality primarily due to a loss of heterogeneous habitat. Pearson correlation analysis relating ECB IBI and QHEI was positive and significant, and demonstrated that a reduction in riffle and pool areas associated with channelization was the most significant factor influencing the fish community. Furthermore, species lost when streams are channelized were predictable, and often represented environmentally sensitive species. The results of this study suggested that stream channel alterations have a negative and lasting influence on the fish assemblage which should be recognized prior to any stream development.

Historically, management for migratory waterfowl was focused around providing hunting opportunity each fall. More recently habitat during spring migration has received attention as a potentially limiting factor for some species of waterfowl, considering the carry-over effects that have been observed in both capital and income breeders. Habitat needs have been compounded by the flashy flood events that now occur in the highly modified landscape. The discovery of carry-over effects has led to an increase in habitat management actions and a diversification of available management strategies. In my study I hoped to identify the best management strategies for spring migratory waterfowl. I also wanted to identify how quickly waterfowl can respond to flood events. In 2012 and 2013, I examined the effect of habitat management on dabbling duck behavior and distribution during spring migration in southwest Indiana. I investigated three management options for wetlands: active management, passive management, and agricultural food plots. Actively managed wetlands are wetlands where the hydrology is managed and controlled. In passively managed wetlands and agricultural food plots; the hydrology is provided naturally. I surveyed both duck behavior and abundance on 14 wetlands on the Patoka River National Wildlife Refuge and Management Area. I also surveyed short-lived wetlands to determine the response rate of waterfowl to inundation following rain events. The agricultural food plot areas had the lowest estimates of food availability followed by the actively managed areas with the passive managed wetlands having the highest estimate. Waterfowl abundances were highest on the actively managed wetlands with the food plots coming in second and the passive wetlands coming in a distant third. The passive wetlands had the highest proportions of time spent feeding followed by the active and food plot wetlands. Dabbling ducks were not distributing themselves relative to food density but are feeding in the highest proportions in these areas. Waterfowl use was recorded less than 24 hours after inundation on 14 of 21 short-lived wetlands. Short-lived wetlands may be important to migratory waterfowl. Conservation prioritization of passively managed areas would provide larger areas for dabbling ducks to feed, but active management provides habitat regardless of climatic variability. Moving forward, wetland complexes encompassing diverse wetland management approaches would be the best option for spring migrating waterfowl as these complexes can provide high quality habitats and buffer against uncontrollable climactic conditions.

Définir le contexte de l'habitat urbain pauvre, c'est définir celui du sous-développement et de l'urbanisation dans le tiers monde. A travers l'exemple d'une métropole indienne, Hyderabad, apparaissent des liens entre croissance urbaine et multiplication des quartiers spontanés. La sous-intégration de cet espace se traduit par la précarité de l'habitat et la fréquente illégalité du statut foncier, la pauvreté ambiante. Néanmoins, le « bidonvillois » est loin d'être un marginal : il travaille dans la ville et y vit. L'approche monographique de N'Kunta, un slum d’Hyderabad, permet d'approfondir l'étude des rapports entretenus par le quartier avec le reste de l'organisme urbain. Bien que l'immigration rurale ait joué un rôle important dans la vie des habitants de N'Kunta, le Basti n'est pas un village dans la ville. Les actifs participent à l'économie métropolitaine mais cette insertion est paradoxalement à l'origine de la sous-intégration des slum-dwellers car le secteur informel, qui emploie la plus grande part de cette main-d’œuvre, se caractérise par la faiblesse et l'irrégularité des salaires. D'autre part, le slum indien a la spécificité de regrouper des "basses castes", ce qui fait coïncider statut religieux et condition. Au total, le quartier urbain pauvre est sous-intégré en termes d'habitat, d'infrastructures sanitaires, d'éducation mais il entretient d'étroites relations avec une ville dépassée par sa croissance. Le slum représente le seul moyen de subsister dans la cité pour des milliers de citadins à Hyderabad
To define the background of the urban poor housing is to define the background of under-development and third world urbanisation. Through the case of an Indian metropolis, Hyderabad, appear the relations between urban growth and slums' increase. In these bad housing areas, the land property is frequently illegal and poverty is everywhere. Nevertheless, the slum-dweller cannot be seen as a marginal : he is employed in the city and lives there. The monography of N'Kunta, one of Hyderabad slums, was an opportunity to examine thoroughly the links existing between a poor quarter and the urban organism. Though rural migration has played a great part in the life N'Kunta's inhabitants, the "Basti" is not a village in the city. Working population participate to metropolitan economy but the type of participation determinates "under-integration". Indeed, the informal sector who mostly employs them characterized by the weakness and irregularity of wages. A specificity of indian slum is to gather low castes : religious status answers to sub-standard economic conditions. In conclusion, urban poor community is "under-integrated" in terms of habitat, sanitary conditions, education equipments but she maintains close relations with the uncontrolled growth of the city. Slums seem to be the only way of survival in the city for thousands citizens in Hyderabad

Diese Arbeit beleuchtet die wichtigen Komponenten des Habitus indischer Arbeitsplätze von Organisationen des privaten und öffentlichen Sektors in Delhi und zeigt auf, wie tief die in beiden Arbeitssektoren vorherrschenden geschlechtsspezifischen Ungleichheiten in ihren Habitus eingebettet sind. Der Zusammenhang zwischen Habitus und geschlechtsspezifischen Ungleichheiten wird durch im Rahmen dieses Projekts durchgeführte Forschungen und Feldstudien aufgezeigt, die zeigen, wie sich das Ausmaß, die Wahrnehmung, die Reaktion und der allgemeine Ansatz zur sexuellen Belästigung am Arbeitsplatz zwischen den Bereichen des öffentlichen und des privaten Sektors stark unterscheiden. Sexuelle Belästigung und unangemessenes Verhalten am Arbeitsplatz werden als Indikatoren für die Aufdeckung von Ungleichheiten zwischen den Geschlechtern im öffentlichen und privaten Sektor verwendet. Daher stellt diese These die Erforschung zweier zentraler Konzepte dar, d. H. Habitus- und Geschlechterungleichheiten, indem das Verständnis und die Herangehensweise an sexuelle Belästigung in beiden Sektoren untersucht werden und somit die Verbindung zwischen Habitus und Geschlechterungleichheit am indischen Arbeitsplatz begründet wird.
This thesis highlights the important components of the habitus of Indian workplaces of private and public sector organisations in Delhi and establishes how gender inequalities prevalent in both work sectors are deeply embedded in their habitus. The connection between habitus and gender inequalities is demonstrated by research and field studies conducted within this project that exhibit how the scale, perception, reaction and overall approach to sexual harassment at the workplace differs extensively between fields of public and private sector. Sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour at the workplace are used as signifiers for the exposition of gender inequality in public and private sectors. Therefore, this thesis constitutes the exploration of two central concepts i.e. habitus and gender inequalities by studying the understanding of and approach towards sexual harassment in the two sectors and thus, substantiate the linkage betwixt habitus and gender inequality at the Indian workplace.

Coral reefs are among the most diverse and productive ecosystems on earth, and are critical to the survival of tropical marine ecosystems and sustenance of local human populations. However, coral reefs are quite vulnerable to disturbances, both natural and anthropogenic. This thesis looks at how coral reef communities have responded to climactic disturbances, particularly the 1997-98 El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and subsequent coral bleaching and mortality that affected much of the Indian Ocean, including the coastal waters of Tanzania, where the study was conducted. In particular, it investigates the effects of coral bleaching, habitat degradation and reef spatial arrangement on reef fish assemblages. Habitat structural complexity and spatial arrangement of reefs had an effect on reef fish communities. Fish communities showed patterns in distribution among habitats and between patch and continuous reefs. Fishes preferred live to bleached/dead or eroded coral, but trophic groups reacted differently to patch and continuous reefs. There were slight changes in fish abundance and significant changes in fish diversity on experimental, bleached branching Acropora coral plots over a period of one year. While fish abundance on one site increased shortly after a bleaching event, 6 years later fish abundance had decreased significantly. Conversely, coral reef communities in northern Tanzania had changed little over an 8-year period, with minor changes associated with the 1997-98 ENSO and the presence or absence of fisheries management. The coral reefs in the region were found to show high variability in community structure and responses of associated fish and invertebrate communities. The findings of this thesis indicate the importance of habitat structure and spatial arrangement of reefs, the detrimental effects of coral bleaching, and the possibility that some reefs and some (generalist) reef fish taxa may exhibit resilience to climate change.

Juday Creek, in St. Joseph County, Indiana, has been designated a salmonid stream due to its reproducing population of brown trout (Salmo trutta). Increasing development in the watershed in recent years has been accompanied by deterioration of the stream habitat. The purpose of this project is to analyze a proposed golf course project and develop a set of recommendations for best management practices (BMP's) which will mitigate the effects of the golf course on the trout habitat of Juday Creek.Site features were inventoried, and the design program was formulated to include aesthetics, playability, impact to fisheries and wildlife, and groundwater quality. Current stormwater best management practices were assessed for their applicability to this project. Additionally, cultural best management practices currently utilized in the golf course industry were reviewed. BMP recommendations include: 1. Use of temporary erosion control practices during construction to avoid sedimentation of the stream.2. Use of Integrated Pest Management including selection of low maintenance grass species.3. Use of vegetated swales to filter and divert golf course runoff to out-of-play areas for further filtering.4. Use of vegetated storm filter/infiltration/wetland retention areas as stormwater filters in out- of-play areas.5. Supplemental tree planting along the stream corridor to provide additional shading of the stream.6. Restoration of structure such as logs, boulders, and cobble in the stream to improve fish habitat.

Les changements climatiques affecteront les écosystèmes terrestres et marins mais les conséquences en termes de répartition globale de la biodiversité sont encore mal connues. Les études portant sur la sélection des habitats des prédateurs marins pour leurs recherches alimentaire et leurs évolutions provoquées par le réchauffement climatique sont en plein développement actuellement. Les suivis télémétriques apportent des informations précieuses sur la variabilité spatio-temporelle de la distribution en mer des prédateurs marins. L’ensemble des problématiques étant très importantes, nous avons décidé de nous focaliser sur les oiseaux marins. Le premier objectif de ce projet de thèse est d’étudier, la distribution et la sélection des habitats d’alimentation des oiseaux marins tropicaux pendant leurs phases de reproduction et pendant leurs migrations. Afin de caractériser les habitats d’un point de vue abiotique. Le deuxième objectif de ce projet de thèse est d’utiliser les scénarios d’évolution des habitats océaniques produits par GIEC pour simuler, à l’aide des modèles d’habitats, l’évolution temporelle de la distribution des habitats favorables. Le troisième objectif de ce projet de thèse est d’utiliser les données de suivi disponibles d'identifier les « points chauds » de la biodiversité.Nous nous sommes intéressés, dans un premier temps, aux puffins du Pacifique. Plus particulièrement, nous avons étudié les variations entre les différentes colonies d’une même espèce, du point de vue de la distribution, de l’activité et de la sélection des habitats. Ensuite, nous avons étudié l'impact de l'évolution du changement climatique sur les habitats d'hivernage des Pétrels (Pterodroma baraui) de Barau, une espèce endémique de l'île de la Réunion. Nous avons construit des modèles de sélection des habitats. Ces modèles ont ensuite été utilisés pour prédire l’évolution des habitats d'hivernage à l’horizon 2100, en fonction de différents scénarios du GIEC. Enfin, Nous avons compilé les données de suivi disponibles sur les oiseaux marins, les tortues de mer et les mammifères marins pour étudier la répartition de la mégafaune marine dans l'océan Indien, et d'identifier les points chauds de haute densité et de haute diversité. Afin de mettre en place, à terme, des zones marines protégées. »
Climate change will affect terrestrial and marine ecosystems, but the consequences in terms of global biodiversity distribution are still unclear. Studies about selection of marine habitats and trends caused by global warming are growing. The telemetric monitoring provide valuable information on the spatial and temporal variability on distribution of marine predators. All the issues are very important, we have decided to focus on seabirds. The first objective of this thesis project is to study the distribution and selection of foraging habitat of tropical seabirds during their reproductive phase and during their migrations. To characterize the habitat of an abiotic point of view. The second objective of this thesis project is to use scenarios for ocean habitats produced by IPCC to simulate, using habitat models, the temporal evolution of the distribution of suitable habitat. The third objective of this thesis project is to use the available monitoring data to identify "hotspots" of biodiversity. We looked, at first, the puffins Pacific. More particularly, we studied the variations between the different colonies of the same species, from the viewpoint of the distribution, activity and habitat selection. Then we studied the impact of the evolution of climate change on wintering habitat of Barau’s Petrels (Pterodroma baraui). We built habitat selection models. These models were then used to predict the evolution of wintering habitat in 2100, according to different IPCC scenarios. Finally, we have compiled the available telemetry data on seabirds, sea turtles and marine mammals to study the distribution of marine megafauna in the Indian Ocean, and to identify hotspots of high density and high diversity. To establish, in time, protected marine areas

Les thons tropicaux, comme d’autres poissons pélagiques, s’associent aux objets flottants. Si ce comportement associatif est connu depuis près de deux millénaires, les raisons sous-jacentes sont encore méconnues. Les pêcheurs exploitent ce comportement associatif pour faciliter la recherche et la capture de poissons. Dans les années 1980, les pêcheurs industriels ont commencé à construire et à déployer leurs propres objets flottants artificiels, les dispositifs de concentration de poissons dérivants (DCPd). Depuis, le déploiement des DCPd a augmenté drastiquement, ce qui a plusieurs impacts écologiques sur les thons tropicaux. Les DCPd ont de nombreux impacts directs (liés à la mortalité par pêche) : ils augmentent l’efficacité des senneurs, modifient la composition spécifique des captures et augmentent les captures de petits albacores (Thunnus albacares) et thons obèses (Thunnus obesus). Outre ces impacts directs, les DCPd pourraient avoir des impacts indirects sur les thons tropicaux de par leur seule présence. Cette thèse vise à (1) faire le point sur les impacts indirects des DCPd, (2) quantifier les modifications induites par les DCPd et d’autres activités anthropiques sur l’habitat, et (3) caractériser les impacts directs et indirects de ces modifications en considérant le comportement et la condition physiologique des thons tropicaux.Une revue de littérature a permis de montrer que les DCPd modifient l’habitat des thons tropicaux, mais que les quantifications manquent. Il n’existe pas de résultats scientifiques convergeants concernant les impacts indirects des DCPd sur le comportement et la biologie des thons tropicaux (Chapitre 2). Dans l’ouest de l’océan Indien, les DCPd représentent 85 % des objets flottants, augmentant ainsi fortement leur densité (Chapitre 3). Les autres activités humaines (e.g. déforestation, changement climatique) n’ont pas induit de tendance claire de la densité des objets flottants naturels, suggèrant que les DCPd sont le principal moteur des modifications de l’habitat des thons tropicaux (Chapitre 4). Grâce à un modèle de comportement de thons, nous avons pu estimer que l’augmentation de la densité des DCPd a fortement augmenté le pourcentage de temps que les individus passent associés aux DCPd, de 20 % à 68 % dans l’ouest de l’océan Indien (Chapitre 5). Elle a aussi un impact sur le comportement associatif des agrégations de thons (Chapitre 6). Les DCPd ont donc un impact direct, en augmentant le temps que les thons passent associés et ainsi leur capturabilité par les thoniers senneurs. Une analyse de données taille poids d’albacores sur plus de vingt ans montre que l’augmentation de la densité d’objets flottants induite par les DCPd ne se traduit pas par un impact à long terme sur leur condition dans l’océan Indien (Chapitre 7). Il faut donc poursuivre les recherches sur le lien de causalité entre l’association des thons avec les DCPd et leur faible condition, qui peut être testé à l’aide du modèle développé au Chapitre 8.Le travail développé dans cette thèse a permis d’améliorer notre compréhension des impacts des DCPd sur les thons tropicaux, ce qui a plusieurs implications en termes de gestion. D’autres travaux expérimentaux et de terrain sont nécessaires pour explorer ces impacts potentiels et des séries temporelles d’indicateurs à long terme devraient être récoltées pour les évaluer. Comme les impacts indirects des DCPd peuvent agir comme facteurs aggravants sur les populations de thons, il est urgent de les caractériser. En outre, cette thèse apporte de nouveaux élements sur les raisons sous-jacentes au comportement associatif des thons et sur les impacts des DCPd qui en résultent. Dans l’Océan Indien, la situation des populations de thons est alarmante, l’albacore et le thon obèse étant surexploités. Les résultats de cette thèse peuvent aider à un meilleur diagnostic de l’impact des DCP sur les thons tropicaux et ainsi contribuer à une meilleure gestion de cette resource commune
Tropical tunas, as many pelagic fish species are known to associate with floating objects (FOBs). If this associative behavior has been known for almost 2 millennia, the reasons underlying it are still largely unknown. Fishers exploit this associative behavior to facilitate the search and catch of fish. In particular, in the 1980s, industrial fishers began to build and deploy their own man-made floating objects, drifting fish aggregating devices (DFADs). Since then, the deployment of DFADs has increased massively, which has several ecological impacts, on the environment and directly on marine species. This thesis focuses on DFADs ecological impacts on tropical tuna. DFADs impact tropical tuna directly by increasing purse seine fleets’ efficiency, yield and by expanding their fishing grounds. They also change species catch composition and increase the catch of small yellowfin (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye (Thunnus obesus) tunas. Besides these direct impacts (related with fishing mortality), DFADs could impact tropical tunas indirectly by their sole presence in the ocean. This thesis aims at (1) reviewing the indirect impacts of DFADs in tropical tuna, (2) quantifying the modifications induced by DFADs and other anthropic activities on tropical tuna surface habitat, and (3) characterizing the direct and indirect impacts of these modifications, considering tropical tuna behavior and condition.Based on a literature review, Chapter 2 outlines that DFADs do modify tropical tuna habitat, but quantitative characterizations are missing. There is a lack of clear converging scientific evidence on the indirect impacts of DFADs on the behavior and biology of tropical tuna. In the Western Indian Ocean, DFADs strongly increased FOB density, representing around 85 % of the encountered FOBs by observers onboard purse seine vessels (Chapter 3). Other human activities, like deforestation or climate change, did not induce any clear trend of natural floating objects density, suggesting that DFADs are the main driver of tropical tuna surface habitat modifications in the Indian Ocean (Chapter 4). The increase of DFAD density impacts the associative behavior of tropical tuna. A model of tuna behavior shows that this change strongly increased the percentage of their time individual tuna spend associated with FOBs, from 20 % to 68 % in the Western Indian Ocean (Chapter 5). DFADs also impact the associative behavior of tuna aggregations, which is also driven by biophysical characteristics of the environment (Chapter 6). Hence DFADs have a direct impact, through an increase of the time tropical tuna spend associated with FOBS, and consequently their catchability. The analysis of a 20-year dataset on size and weight of yellowfin tuna shows that the increase of FOB density induced by DFADs does not translate into a long-term impact on their condition in the Western Indian Ocean (Chapter 7). This calls for further investigation into the causal link between tuna association with DFADs and their low condition, which can be tested using the mathematical framework developed in Chapter 8.Finally, the work developed in this thesis allowed to improve our understanding of the impacts of DFADs on tropical tuna, which has several implications in terms of management. Further experimental and field work are needed to explore these potential impacts and long-term time series of indicators should be monitored to assess them. As DFADs indirect impacts can act as worsening factors on tuna populations, characterizing them is urgent. Also, this thesis brings new evidence on the reasons underlying tuna associative behavior with FOBs and on the resulting impacts of DFADs. In the Indian Ocean, the situation of tropical tuna stock is alarming, with both yellowfin and bigeye tunas being overexploited. The results of this thesis can help to better determine the impacts of DFADs on tropical tuna and thus contribute to improving the management of this common resource

This study analyzes the remaining suitable habitat of the one-horned rhinoceros, Rhinoceros unicornis, in Royal Chitwan National Park of Nepal. An April 2003 Landsat image was classified into eight land cover types: wetland, sand, water, mixed forest, sal forest, agriculture, settlement, and grassland. This image was converted into habitat suitability maps using cover, food, and water. The rhinoceros prefers grassland habitat with oxbow lakes and closed canopy during the monsoon season. Nominal values of five parameters were used to create a map of habitat suitability index. The map was categorized into four habitat classes: highly unsuitable, unsuitable, moderately suitable habitat, and suitable. Landscape metrics, patch metrics and class metrics associated with habitat were determined through the use of FRAGSTATS.

The Cerulean Warbler is a small migratory that is currently considered a species of special concern. Cerulean Warbler response to two types of silvicultural treatments in southern Indiana was assessed by comparing relative abundance and territory data collected during the two years prior to tree harvest to data collected one year immediately following the harvest. ArcGIS was then used to identify spatial attributes of territories that appeared to be important to the species. Lastly, a method of sampling canopy openings by using a Global Positioning System (GPS) unit was introduced. The results suggest that Cerulean Warblers were not negatively affected by the harvest and that moderate prescribed silviculture treatments that create small canopy openings can benefit the species.

The sicklefin lemon shark Negaprion acutidens is a large-bodied (> 3m) coastal shark species, widely distributed in tropical and sub-tropical Indo-Pacific waters. Despite its large size and wide distribution, very little is known about its movement behaviour throughout ontogeny. The primary aim of this thesis was to gain an understanding of the movements of sub-adult N. acutidens, in and around the St. Joseph Atoll, Republic of Seychelles, to facilitate the effective conservation of this vulnerable species. A total of 22 sharks (139 – 202 cm TL) were equipped with coded acoustic transmitters and passively monitored using moored acoustic receivers for a period of 20 month from March 2009 to October 2010. The use of passive acoustic telemetry arrays to study behavioural ecology has increased in popularity in recent years and been successfully applied to study a host of teleost and elasmobranch species in a diversity of habitats, ranging from sheltered estuaries to the offshore pelagic environment. However, the practicalities of designing an effective network of receivers to optimally monitor animal movements can be challenging. In this study the receiver array was optimised through a series of incremental steps to achieve an efficient design that allowed for the specific objectives to be addressed. The specific objectives of this study were to i) gain an understanding of the long term space use patterns and site fidelity of sub-adult N. acutidens within degree of use of the St. Joseph Atoll lagoon and surrounding habitats, and ii) investigate their short term behavioural patterns in response to natural rhythmic cycles. The important role the atoll plays in the sub-adult stage of this species was demonstrated by the very low numbers of detections outside the atoll compared to the very large numbers of detections inside the atoll. Over the course of a year the tagged sharks showed a high degree of site fidelity to the atoll, with 79 – 100% of the individuals detected during each month and 50% being detected on a near daily basis. This result provides testimony of the nursery role of the atoll and importance of these habitats in the early life history for this species. Individual area use was generally found to be restricted to the eastern part of the atoll incorporating a portion of the central deep lagoon and a nearby adjacent area of the sand flats. The movements of sub-adult N. acutidens on and off of the shallow flats surrounding the central lagoon (likely for foraging) were found to be strongly influenced by the tidal height and the diel cycle. Tagged sharks were found to utilise the flats more regularly when the tidal height was greater than 90 cm and particularly more so during the night and early morning than during daylight times. The combined results of this study expose the vulnerability of this species to rapid local depletion. Similarly, the effectiveness of spatial management measures, such as no-take marine protected areas is highlighted as an efficient tool for the future conservation of this species. In the St. Joseph Atoll in particular, the use of a multi-levelled protection approach, where the eastern portion on the atoll is completely restricted while the remaining area is utilized for non-consumptive tourism activities, could be highly effective. Future research should investigate changes in area use throughout the ontogeny of this species as well improve the understanding of the breeding site fidelity and population size of reproductive females using the St. Joseph Atoll.

In the summer, five creeks on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation were examined. Apache trout generally selected the deepest pools with the greatest amounts of instream cover and bankcuts. Though fish in three creeks may be Apache trout x rainbow trout hybrids, they were found to occupy the same type of pools. Regression models on environmental conditions in two creeks accounted for 83% and 76% of the variability in biomass of Apache trout. There was adequate nursery habitat (and successful reproduction) on two creeks, but such habitat was lacking in the other three creeks, and no evidence of successful reproduction was found. There was little evidence of survival of smaller Apache trout in areas of co-occurrence with non-native trouts but there was evidence of their survival upstream where fewer numbers of non-natives occur. The exclusion of smaller Apache trout may be from elimination or emigration. Greater populations of Apache trout may be supported through eradication of non-native trouts, the addition of instream cover, and structures designed to create longer lasting pools and bankcuts.

La recherche porte sur la problématique des rapports entre patrimoine culturel, habitat et qualité environnementale.

Explorer les interfaces entre ville et campagne, nature et culture, ville et bidonville, être et habiter, pour construire un rapport entre architecture intégrée et développement durable du peuple Mapuche. Le besoin de recherches sur ce problème devient urgent. Les masses migratoires des paysans indigènes Mapuches vers les villes atteignent des niveaux alarmants. Ils sont installés dans des bidonvilles ou dans des H.L.M d’État construits à très bas prix, inadaptés aux besoins des Mapuches. La situation est devenue critique. La détérioration urbaine devient irréversible et la culture Mapuche disparaît. L’objectif de cette recherche est de contribuer à la connaissance et à la reconnaissance des problèmes du peuple Mapuche, et par là même, à concevoir un habitat et une architecture durables, respectueux de leurs valeurs et de leurs besoins. Il est important de comprendre les nouvelles fonctions et organisations de l’espace, de saisir les logiques territoriales, le rôle et la place des individus et de la collectivité, pour favoriser le développement de ces territoires. Il s’agit de chercher des solutions alternatives centrées sur un habitat social, écologique et durable, qui non seulement prenne en compte les rapports à l’espace, à la cosmogonie, et aux savoir-faire locaux (notamment le travail du bois), mais s’attache aussi à renforcer des logiques sociales.

Conservation of endangered Indiana bats (Myotis sodalis) requires knowledge of regional habitat use patterns. I radio-tracked Indiana bats to roosts and foraging areas to document summer habitat use. Sexes selected different roost trees: reproductive females selected maples, whereas males selected elms and other species, but did not use maples. Distribution models based on environmental correlates revealed that soil series was the strongest contributor to niche models. Females selected roosts in silt loams; males selected roosts in muck, silt loam and fine sandy loams. All bats foraged in habitats over fine sandy and gravelly loams. Male roosts and female foraging areas were found near local water body elevations, though males foraged at higher elevations. The niche models suggest that sexes roost and forage separately, but that ranges for these activities overlap. My findings identify habitats selected by Indiana bats thereby enabling more effective conservation for this endangered species.

Long-lived, top-level predators, such as some marine mammals, serve as important indicators of ecosystem health. Assessing the abundance and habitat use of such marine top predators is essential for the formulation of effective conservation and management actions. There is considerable concern over the viability of small humpback dolphin opulations across a global scale and a number of studies have raised concerns over their vulnerability to extinction. In light of the recent uplisting of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins (Sousa plumbea) to ‘Endangered’ on the South African Red Data list, there is an urgent need for a greater understanding of the abundance and spatial distribution of this species along the South African coastline. Using small vessels as survey platforms between March 2014 and June 2015, this study attempted to determine the abundance, spatial distribution and habitat preferences of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins along 150 km of South Africa’s south coast. A further aim was to assess the utilisation of the current Marine Protected Area network by humpback dolphins along this coastline relative to areas outside of formal protection. Mark-recapture methods applied to photo-identification data produced abundance estimates of 84 individuals (95% CI: 72-115) within the study area for both open and closed models. An average group size of 3.94 individuals (range 1-12; SD = ± 2.82) was observed during the study, indicating a decrease in average group size of ~45 % from a previous assessment in 2002/03. Such a decline in group size could potentially be a result of a change in social structure in response to reduced prey availability. Spatial analyses of humpback dolphin geographic positions, using a kernel density estimator (KDE) and effort-weighted density grid analyses, indicate that the species is unevenly distributed over the coastal zone within the area. Sightings occurred at the highest densities within Buffels Bay and along Goukamma MPA, followed by Plettenberg Bay, Nature’s Valley, and around the Bloukrans, Elandsbos and Groot River East mouths. Habitat preference was assessed using a standard classification-based method and the results indicate a strong preference, in particular, for Dissipative Intermediate Sandy Coast habitat, followed by Very Exposed Rocky Coast, Intermediate Sandy Coast, Estuarine Shore, Mixed Shore and Inshore Reef habitats. Areas of high humpback dolphin densities appear to be associated with these habitat types, especially with Dissipative-Intermediate Sandy Coast habitat. Humpback dolphins were sighted at relatively low densities along stretches of coastline consisting predominately of Exposed Rocky Shore habitat. Long expanses of this habitat type may limit humpback dolphin movements along the coast. The observed patterns in distribution and habitat preferences may be linked to the availability of prey and/or the avoidance of predators. Average sightings per kilometer travelled (SPUE) indicate that the utilisation of the Robberg and Tsitsikamma MPAs by humpback dolphins was low, most likely due to the low availability of sandy coastline in these areas. In contrast, the utilisation of the Goukamma MPA, which is characterised by a high availability of Dissipative-Intermediate Sandy Coast, was very high. The low population numbers and declines in average group size of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins within the study area warrant concern and call for effective conservation and management measures. In light of ever-increasing levels of anthropogenic threats to coastal areas, future research and long-term monitoring of the population is essential to broaden our knowledge of the species and to detect population trends.

Food frequency questionnaires and twenty-four hour recalls were conducted with a random sample of 104 Ojibwe adults in Mille Lacs, Minnesota and Lac Courte Oreilles, Wisconsin to assess traditional and market food use. Sociocultural questionnaires were used to assess the cultural significance of traditional food. The importance of the traditional food system was evident, with at least 50% of people engaging in hunting and fishing practices. Traditional food was among the top ten food sources of protein, zinc, iron and folate. The cultural significance of traditional food was apparent. Obesity is prevalent, with almost 50% of the population studied over the 85$ rm sp{th}$ percentile for Body Mass Index (BMI). Nutrient densities were lower than those in the NHANES III sample, in particular for calcium, vitamin A, vitamin C, and folate. Mean intakes of fat, saturated fat, and sucrose exceeded American Heart Association and World Health Organization recommendations. Areas of focus for education and future research needs are suggested in order to reduce risks for nutrition-related chronic disease such as diabetes and heart disease.

The Cerulean Warbler (Dendroica cerulea) is a Neotropical migrant bird species which is experiencing severe population declines. This study fills in gaps in the information available concerning Cerulean Warbler territoriality and breeding in a site in southeastern Indiana. During the summers of 2002 and 2003, 51 territories were mapped, with an average territory size of 0.21 hectares. Differences existed between territories and random sites for canopy cover, slope, canopy height, number of trees, diameter at breast height (DBH), the number of trees between 3 - 7.9 cm DBH, the number of trees between 8 - 14.9 cm DBH, the number of trees between 15 - 22.9 cm DBH, and the number of trees > 38 cm DBH. Nest productivity was very low in the study area, suggesting that Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge was a sink population of Cerulean Warblers during the two years of the study.

As role models and experts in nutrition, registered dietitians have the responsibility of educating the public about appropriate nutrition practices. The purpose of this study was to compare physical characteristics and dietary intake of entry-level dietitians(ELD) and non-entry level dietitians (HELD) in Indiana through a mailed personal history questionnaire and food frequency questionnaire. Most of the dietitians reported a weight that was normal or overweight when compared to their ideal body weight. Very few were underweight, yet an average of 36.2 % of all the dietitians were overweight. Statistically, the findings of this study indicated that there was no significant difference in compliance with the established standards of the Food Guide Pyramid between the ELD and HELD in any of the food groups. Secondly, there was not a significant difference in overall compliance between the two groups of dietitians. These results could indicate that registered dietitians are not forgetting the importance of proper nutrition and are continuing to model positive dietary behaviors as they continue in the profession.

The West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus) is an herbivorous marine mammal that occupies freshwater, estuarine, and marine habitats. Despite being considered endangered, relatively little is known about the feeding ecology of either of the two recognized subspecies, the Florida manatee (T.m. latirostris) and Caribbean or Antillean manatee (T.m. manatus). A better understanding of their respective feeding preferences and habitat use is essential to establish criteria on which conservation plans can be based. The present study expands on previous work on manatee feeding ecology by both assessing the application of stable isotope analysis to manatee tissue and providing critical baseline parameters for accurate isotopic data interpretation. The present study was the first to calculate stable isotope turnover rate in the skin of any marine mammal. Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios were examined over a period of more than one year in the epidermis of rescued Florida manatees that were transitioning from a diet of aquatic forage to terrestrial forage (lettuce) in captivity. Mean half-life for 13C turnover in manatee epidermis was 55 days and mean half-life for 15N turnover was 42 days. Due to these slow turnover rates, carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analysis in manatee epidermis is useful in summarizing average dietary intake over a long period of time rather than assessing recent diet. In addition to turnover rate, a diet-tissue discrimination value of 2.8 ‰ for 13C was calculated for long-term captive manatees on a lettuce diet. Turnover and diet-tissue discrimination results were subsequently used to interpret carbon and nitrogen stable isotope data in epidermis samples collected from free-ranging manatees in Florida, Belize, and Puerto Rico. This study was the first application of stable isotope analysis to Antillean manatees. Regional differences in stable isotope ratios in manatee skin were consistent with ratios in plant samples collected in those regions. Signatures in the skin of manatees sampled in Belize and Puerto Rico indicated a diet composed mainly of seagrasses, whereas those of Florida manatees exhibited greater variation. Mixing model results indicated manatees sampled from Crystal River and Homosassa Springs had an overall average intake of primarily freshwater vegetation whereas manatees sampled from Big Bend Power Plant, Ten Thousand Islands, and Warm Mineral Springs fed primarily on seagrasses. Possible diet-tissue discrimination values for 15N ranged from 1.0 to 1.5 ‰. Stable isotope analysis can be successfully applied to interpret manatee feeding behavior over a long period of time, specifically the use of freshwater vegetation vs. seagrasses, and can aid in improving conservation efforts.

Les oiseaux marins tropicaux ont une distribution hiérarchique qui dépend de la position de leurs colonies et de leur capacité de dispersion. À macro-échelle elle réflète les limites de leurs habitats, à méso-échelle la présence de structures agrégeant les proies et à micro-échelle, la présence en surface de proies rendues accessibles par les bancs de prédateurs. Dans le Sud-Ouest de l'océan Indien, sur 6,5 millions d'oiseaux, 99% sont des sternes fuligineuses. Elles se reproduisent saisonnièrement en hiver austral aux Seychelles et à Europa, en été austral à Juan de Nova. La forte concentration en chlorophylle autour des colonies favorise le développement de chaînes alimentaires aboutissant aux sternes. La position des Glorieuses semble favoriser une reproduction sub-annuelle, soutenue par la présence continue de proies autour des colonies. Les prélèvements de biomasse effectués par les sternes en reproduction sont estimés à plus de 55000 tonnes par an, dans le canal du Mozambique
Tropical seabirds show a hierarchical distribution depending on the position of their colonies and their dispersion capability. At macro-scale it reflects the boundaries of their habitats, at meso-scale the presence of structures aggregating prey, and at micro-scale the presence at the surface of prey driven by predatory schools. In the South-West Indian Ocean, more than 6 millions of birds are present, of which 99% are sooty terns. They breed seasonally in austral winter in the Seychelles and at Europa, in austral summer at Juan de Nova. The high chlorophyll concentration around colonies favours the development of food web leading to the terns. The location of Glorieuses favours a sub-annual breeding regime, led by the presence of prey around the colony all year round. Biomass removed by terns in the Mozambique Channel is estimated to 55,000 tons, by breeding season

Au travers d’une monographie des sites archéologiques d’Acoua, village de parler kibushi kimaore situé au nord-ouest de Grande Terre, cette recherche propose d’étudier la période des XIIe-XVIe siècles à Mayotte. Cette période est caractérisée par d’importants changements culturels, religieux et politiques conduisant à l’instauration progressive d’une société stratifiée et islamisée. Il sera notamment question, au travers des thématiques explorées par notre étude archéologique (pratiques funéraires, évolutions de la culture matérielle, intégration dans les réseaux marchands de l’océan Indien), de déterminer les filiations et processus culturels qui ont contribué à façonner la société ancienne de Mayotte, île dont le peuplement complexe, caractéristique des cultures dites « de franges », selon l’expression popularisée dans cette partie du monde par Paul Ottino, est située à la rencontre de grandes aires culturelles : monde africain bantou, monde malgache et monde arabo-persan, hissant cette île de l’archipel comorien au rang de véritable interface culturelle, commerciale et migratoire entre l’Afrique et Madagascar, « plaque tournante et microcosme de l’océan Indien » pour reprendre l’expression de Claude Allibert
Through this monograph of Acoua’s archaeological sites - a Kibushi kimaore speaking village located in the northwest of Grande Terre - this research proposes to study the XIIth-XVIth centuries period, in Mayotte. This period is characterized by important cultural, religious and political changes leading to the gradual establishment of a stratified and Islamized society. It will be question here, through the themes explored by our archaeological study (funerary practices, evolutions of material culture, integration in the Indian Ocean trading networks), to determine the cultural affiliations and processes that have contributed to shaping Mayotte’s ancient society, an island whose complex settlement, characteristic of cultures known as "fringes" - according to the expression popularized in this part of the world by Ottino - is located at the meeting of meany great cultural areas: African Bantou world, Malagasy world and Arab-Persian world, hoisting this island of the Comorian archipelago to the rank of true cultural, commercial and migratory interface between Africa and Madagascar : a "hub and microcosm of the Indian Ocean", to use the expression of Claude Allibert

Wetlands in the United States have been decreasing in number from the time European settlers began draining them for agricultural purposes to the present. Wetlands serve many important ecological functions such as waterfowl habitat.The purpose of this project was to investigate wetland creation literature in order to develop a process which could be applied to a particular site to attract waterfowl. The topics reviewed for this project were goal setting, for wetland creations, wetland creation methodologies and waterfowl habitat criteria. The major portion of the project was devoted to the construction process of the wetland. The criteria used to direct the wetland construction were hydrology, topographic contour design, revegetation, and protective buffers. Trail development to provide public access for educational purposes was also an important component of the wetland design. Waterfowl habitat criteria was also researched and applied to the project in order it insure that waterfowl would be attracted to the wetland.The process developed from the research was applied to Jim Haberek's property located in Anderson, Indiana. The product was a masterplan which included a site analysis, a water level management plan, a contour design, a revegetation plan, protective buffers and a trail design for the public.

Sendo a mortalidade por atropelamento uma das causas mais importantes na mortalidade do Lince Ibérico e a rede viária um dos fatores mais importantes na fragmentação de habitat para a especie, foi efetuado na zona de reintrodução do Lince Ibérico em Portugal o levantamento das passagens hidráulicas, com vista a minimização dos efeitos de fragmentação e mitigação dos efeitos de mortalidade. Para classificar a adequabilidade das passagens para a passagem do Lince Ibérico foi usado o critério do índice de abertura com base num protocolo do projeto LIFE+ IBERLINCE e para o seu cálculo foram recolhidos dados sobre a dimensão das passagens. Acessoriamente, foram recolhidos dados sobre a presença de vedações junto as passagens. Foram levantados e descritas 737 passagens hidráulicas e dessas passagens foram selecionadas 39 passagens adequadas para a passagem do Lince Ibérico. Foi ainda verificado que na maioria das passagens existem vedações nas proximidades que por vezes podem ter efeito de barreira para a passagem da fauna. Finalmente, para as passagens selecionadas foram propostas medidas de melhoria com base na descrição das mesmas

Nutrition knowledge, Locus of Control, and dietary practices were assessed and compared among male and female athletes at Ball State University with the goal of designing an appropriate nutrition education program. Members of the men's basketball (n=ll), track (n=12) and women's basketball (n=12) and track (n=14) teams were selected as participants in this study. Each participant was required to complete nutrition knowledge, Locus of Control and food frequency questionnaires in addition to completing three 24-hour food recalls on separate occasions.Comparison between gender revealed that female athletes had greater nutrition knowledge levels than male athletes. Women averaged only 90% of advisable caloric intake whereas men exceeded their advisable caloric intake.Male athletes were found not to have better dietary practices than female athletes as previous research suggest. In fact, males exceeded the percent of advisable intake of protein and fat. While, women exceeded advisable protein intake, they consumed less than the maximum advisable fat intake.Comparisons made between sport form revealed two trends: (1) track athletes had greater nutrition knowledge than basketball players and (2) track athletes tended to consume a greater percent of kcalorie intake as protein than basketball athletes.It can be concluded from this study that greater nutrition education should be given to male athletes to encourage lower fat and protein intake. Female athletes need to be educated in the areas of approximate caloric and protein intake. All the athletes need to be educated in general nutrition and nutrition as it relates to physical activity. Further investigation is needed to evaluate the effect of Locus of Control on the dietary practices of both male and female athletes.

Resumo: A proposta da presente pesquisa é estudar as práticas alimentares dos habitantes da região do Planalto do Piratininga, no período compreendido entre a segunda metade do século XVII e a primeira do XVIII. No entanto, apesar de trabalharmos a cultura alimentar como um todo, buscaremos de maneira mais específica analisar os hábitos e técnicas envolvidos nos usos e processamentos do milho, já que segundo os principais expoentes da historiografia colonial, o consumo disseminado deste alimento seria uma especificidade da cultura alimentar de São Paulo naqueles tempos. O estudo da incorporação do milho na alimentação paulista será fundamental para adentrarmos com mais profundidade a maneira pela qual se imbricou, no plano alimentar, hábitos e saberes europeus com aqueles utilizados e transmitidos pelos indígenas. Ao buscar nossa compreensão sobre o sistema alimentar dos paulistas, pretendemos visualizar como tal alimento foi incorporado em sua dieta, não só dentro de seus domínios territoriais, mas em suas incursões sertanistas e na ocupação de novos territórios, visto que a mobilidade proveniente das atividades bandeiristas marcou o cotidiano dos moradores de São Paulo entre os séculos XVII e XVIII
Abstract: This research's purpose is to study the food practices of the Plateau of Piratininga's inhabitants, in the period between the second half of the XVII century and the first half of the XVIII. However, despite the fact that we deal with food culture as a whole, we will analyze, in a specific way, the habits and techniques involved on the maize's uses and processing, considering that the main authors of colonial historiography see the disseminated consume of this food as a specificity of São Paulo's food culture of those times. The study of maize's incorporation on São Paulo's food will be essential to deepen the way that European knowledge and habits imbricated, on the food plane, with those ones used and transmitted by the indigenous people. By trying to understand the paulistas' food system, we intend to visualize how that food was incorporated on their diet, not only within their domains, but also on their sertanistas incursions and on the occupation of new territories, considering that the mobility originating from bandeiristas activities imprinted the daily lives of São Paulo's inhabitants between the XVII and XVIII centuries
