Premiers résultats d'une étude quantitative de la reproduction de la sardine dans le Golfe du Lion

In this paper are given the first results of a quantitative study of the spawning of Pilchard Sardina pilchardus in the Gulf of Lion~during Winter 1975 and Winter 1976. The mean density of eggs at each station and their average abundance in the spawning area were estimated. The incubation time of eggs depending upon temperature was also calculated. En 1975 et 1976 une étude de la reproduction de la sardine dans le Golfe du Lion a été réalisée. Les premiers résultats de cette étude, qui a pour but d'évaluer quantitativement la ponte de cette espèce, permettent de donner une estimation moyenne de l'abondance des oeufs au cours d'une campagne. La durée de l'incubation en fonction de la tempé­rature a d'autre part été déterminée.

Etude électrophorétique des protéines solubles du cristallin de la sardine (Clupea pilchardus Walb.) du Golfe du Lion

The eye lens proteins electrophoresis of pilchard of the Gulf of Lion (Clupea pilchardus Walb.) shows the existence of 2 sub-populations. The hypothesis of an hereditary control by two co-dominant allels is in agreement with the expected Hardy-Weinberg distribution.

La récolte du naissain d'Ostrea edulis en Méditerranée (prospection de 1973 sur les côtes du Golfe du Lion)

In 1973 the" Institut des Peches Maritimes (Centre de Sete) "prospected the Mediterranean coasts to obtain information about the possibilities of collecting flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) spat. Plastic collectors were submerged at 20 stations in the Golfe du Lion. In spite of some lose of equipment, observations have allowed to see that spat densities were excellent (5.5 to 9.4 per dm2 of collector) in most areas.

Post-rift evolution of the Gulf of Lion margin tested by stratigraphic modelling

The sedimentary architecture of basins and passive margins is determined by a complex interaction of parameters, including subsidence, eustasy, and sediment supply. A quantification of the post-rift (20 Ma-0 Ma) vertical movements of the Gulf of Lion (West Mediterranean) is proposed here based on the stratigraphic study of sedimentary paleomarkers using a large 3D grid of reflection seismic data, correlations with existing drillings, and refraction data. Post-rift subsidence was measured by the direct use of sedimentary geometries analysed in 3D and validated by numerical stratigraphic modelling. Three domains of subsidence were found: on the continental shelf and slope, subsidence corresponds to a seaward tilting with different amplitudes, whereas the deep basin subsides purely vertically. We show that these domains fit with the deeper crustal domains highlighted by previous geophysical data, and that post-break-up subsidence follows the initial hinge lines of the rifting phase. Subsidence rates are quantified on each domain for each stratigraphic interval. At a constant distance from the rotational hinge line, the Plio-Quaternary subsidence rate is constant on the shelf overall. Conversely, Miocene subsidence rates are very different on the eastern and western shelves. Stratigraphic simulations focused on the Messinian salinity crisis (MSC) were also performed. Their results are discussed together with our post-rift subsidence estimates in order to provide ideas and hypotheses for future detailed quantifications of Miocene subsidence, including isostatic readjustments linked to the MSC.
