Von Bertalanffy's growth curve parameters K, L∞ and t'o have been estimated for female Penaeus duorarum by modal progression analysis, using the "successive maximums method" of Gheno and Le Guen (1968) for the polymodal size frequency curves analysis and the Tomlinson and Abrahamson's least squares method for parameters computations. For the male the authors used an original method to get an age/length key. The parameters were calculated by Gulland's graphical method (1969).

The analysis of the geographic and bathymetric distribution of Penaeus duorarum and, particularly P. d. notialis off Côte d'Ivoire and in its whole distribution area leads to the definition of the adult ecological requirements (temperature, salinity, grain size and sediment composition, organic matter) and the importance of the thermocline in the bathmetric distribution. The population structure study shows: (1) variations of size with depth, (2) variations of sex ratio, with size, depth and seasons.

Hydroclimatic conditions in the Gulf of Guinea between Senegal and Nigeria are briefly described emphasizing the seasonal variations of transparency. Analysis of the Abidjan based shrimp fleet allowed to the description of the seasonal variations of activity rhythms for Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, and Nigeria. These rhythms are different between seasons, between fishing grounds, and sometimes even between depths on a given ground. These variations follow the turbidity ones. Diurnal activity is observed in very turbid waters, nocturnal and transition activity in clearer ones. The authors assume that the basic behaviour is a nocturnal one, but that the shrimp-trawlers catches reflect some apparently different ones resulting from diel variations in the stock availability. To explain the apparently diurnal behaviour observed most of the year over the whole Gulf of Guinea it is suggested that these generally benthic shrimps become nectonic at night when turbidity is very high. The results obtained in Ivory Coast, Ghana and Nigeria are compared to those from Senegal where hydroclimatic conditions are different. The similarities are emphasized. The differences in observed behaviour are supposedly caused by the cold season water temps which are sufficiently low to disturb the nor mal activity rhythm.

Principal biometric relations have been calculated for juvenile pink shrimp Penaeus duorarum, of Côte d'Ivoire lagoons. Growth has been studied from weekly sampling using Petersen's method and Von Bertalanffy's equation. Results are very similar to those obtained by the authors working in the same environmental conditions, especially concerning temperature.

Ethmalosa growth curves (calculated by the least squares method) were determined from weekly samplings in Ebrié Lagoon. In order to obtain more accurate results than with a modal decomposition, the author used directly the modal values of the samples. One-year-old ethmalosa is about 15 cm long (fork length). For older fish, growth data seem to be disturbed by migrations: fish measuring >25 cm do not appear in the lagoon. Ethmalosa would spend the first year of its life in the lagoon, where it hatches and reproduces, and would migrate to the sea during its second year.

The pink shrimp Penaeus duorarum spawns from 25 to 60m, mostly in summer (October to June). Size at first sexual maturity is 31 mm (carapace length). The observed difference with the Caribbean pink shrimp is analysed. Immature shrimps migrate all year round but a peak migration occurs from January to March (in summer) and is associated with maximum salinities. A secondary peak migration occurs in October corresponding to minimum salinity and maximum river discharge. The action of salinity on migration is discussed and a preponderant action of currents in the process is also suggested. Migration is also related to moon phase, tide and day-night cycles. Migration intensity as expressed by catch per unit of effort is maximum at night, during ebb tide, on new and full moon. Seasonal variation of mean migration size and abundance are related by a negative linear correlation on a logarithmic plot (R = 0.776). This phenomenon is perhaps related to competition for food.

Le recours aux modèles et à la modélisation est mentionné dans la documentation scientifique comme un moyen de favoriser la mise en oeuvre de pratiques d'enseignement-apprentissage constructivistes pour pallier les difficultés d'apprentissage en sciences. L'étude préalable du rapport des enseignantes et des enseignants aux modèles et à la modélisation est alors pertinente pour comprendre leurs pratiques d'enseignement et identifier des éléments dont la prise en compte dans les formations initiale et disciplinaire peut contribuer au développement d'un enseignement constructiviste des sciences. Plusieurs recherches ont porté sur ces conceptions sans faire de distinction selon les matières enseignées, telles la physique, la chimie ou la biologie, alors que les modèles ne sont pas forcément utilisés ou compris de la même manière dans ces différentes disciplines. Notre recherche s'est intéressée aux conceptions d'enseignantes et d'enseignants de biologie au secondaire au sujet des modèles scientifiques, de quelques formes de représentations de ces modèles ainsi que de leurs modes d'utilisation en classe. Les résultats, que nous avons obtenus au moyen d'une série d'entrevues semi-dirigées, indiquent que globalement leurs conceptions au sujet des modèles sont compatibles avec celle scientifiquement admise, mais varient quant aux formes de représentations des modèles. L'examen de ces conceptions témoigne d'une connaissance limitée des modèles et variable selon la matière enseignée. Le niveau d'études, la formation préalable, l'expérience en enseignement et un possible cloisonnement des matières pourraient expliquer les différentes conceptions identifiées. En outre, des difficultés temporelles, conceptuelles et techniques peuvent friner leurs tentatives de modélisation avec les élèves. Toutefois, nos résultats accréditent l'hypothèse que les conceptions des enseignantes et des enseignants eux-mêmes au sujet des modèles, de leurs formes de représentation et de leur approche constructiviste en enseignement représentent les plus grands obstacles à la construction des modèles en classe.
