Ce mémoire s’intéresse à la représentation des lieux ainsi qu’à leur implication en tant que vecteurs d’idéologie dans le roman Neuf jours de haine, de Jean-Jules Richard. L’intérêt de ce sujet réside principalement dans le fait que Neuf jours de haine a été très peu étudié par la critique universitaire. L’objectif est de montrer que le roman de Jean-Jules Richard diffère des romans de guerre québécois de l’époque non seulement par son sujet original (la Deuxième Guerre mondiale telle que vécue sur le front de l’Europe de l’Ouest), mais également dans la dialectique existant entre les espaces civil et militaire. Le mémoire se divise en trois chapitres. Le premier est consacré au rappel des concepts théoriques nécessaires à l’analyse du roman. Dans celui-ci seront évoqués, entre autres, les notions d’espace, de lieu, de figure spatiale et de configuration spatiale. Les deux chapitres suivants seront consacrés à l’analyse de la représentation des lieux dans Neuf jours de haine. Le chapitre deux se penche sur les lieux diégétiques du roman, lesquels comprennent, entre autres, la tranchée, le champ, le jardin, la ferme, la forêt, la ville, la prison ainsi que l’eau et ses dérivés. Le troisième et dernier chapitre, quant à lui, aborde plutôt les lieux mémoriels de l’œuvre de Richard. Ceux-ci comprennent la prairie, la ferme, la ville, le village, la prison et le cimetière. Dans chacun de ces chapitres, non seulement les lieux sont analysés selon leur fonction diégétique et leur description par les personnages, mais ils sont aussi départagés selon leur degré de sécurité. Cette analyse permet, dans un premier temps, de montrer que la guerre vue par un soldat au front occasionne un renversement des notions traditionnelles de sécurité et d’hostilité. Dans un deuxième temps, celle-ci permet également de cerner l’importance des lieux dans la construction de la diégèse du récit.

Integrating Multiple Point Statistics with Aerial Geophysical Data to assist Groundwater Flow Models
Resumo:
The process of accounting for heterogeneity has made significant advances in statistical research, primarily in the framework of stochastic analysis and the development of multiple-point statistics (MPS). Among MPS techniques, the direct sampling (DS) method is tested to determine its ability to delineate heterogeneity from aerial magnetics data in a regional sandstone aquifer intruded by low-permeability volcanic dykes in Northern Ireland, UK. The use of two two-dimensional bivariate training images aids in creating spatial probability distributions of heterogeneities of hydrogeological interest, despite relatively ‘noisy’ magnetics data (i.e. including hydrogeologically irrelevant urban noise and regional geologic effects). These distributions are incorporated into a hierarchy system where previously published density function and upscaling methods are applied to derive regional distributions of equivalent hydraulic conductivity tensor K. Several K models, as determined by several stochastic realisations of MPS dyke locations, are computed within groundwater flow models and evaluated by comparing modelled heads with field observations. Results show a significant improvement in model calibration when compared to a simplistic homogeneous and isotropic aquifer model that does not account for the dyke occurrence evidenced by airborne magnetic data. The best model is obtained when normal and reverse polarity dykes are computed separately within MPS simulations and when a probability threshold of 0.7 is applied. The presented stochastic approach also provides improvement when compared to a previously published deterministic anisotropic model based on the unprocessed (i.e. noisy) airborne magnetics. This demonstrates the potential of coupling MPS to airborne geophysical data for regional groundwater modelling.

The French government has committed to launch the satellite TARANIS to study transient coupling processes between the Earth’s atmosphere and near-Earth space. The prime objective of TARANIS is to detect energetic charged particles and hard radiation emanating from thunderclouds. The British Nobel prize winner C.T.R. Wilson predicted lightning discharges from the top of thunderclouds into space almost a century ago. However, new experiments have only recently confirmed energetic discharge processes which transfer energy from the top of thunderclouds into the upper atmosphere and near-Earth space; they are now denoted as transient luminous events, terrestrial gamma-ray flashes and relativistic electron beams. This meeting report builds on the current state of scientific knowledge on the physics of plasmas in the laboratory and naturally occurring plasmas in the Earth’s atmosphere to propose areas of future research. The report specifically reflects presentations delivered by the members of a novel Franco-British collaboration during a meeting at the French Embassy in London held in November 2011. The scientific subjects of the report tackle ionization processes leading to electrical discharge processes, observations of transient luminous events, electromagnetic emissions, energetic charged particles and their impact on the Earth’s atmosphere. The importance of future research in this area for science and society, and towards spacecraft protection, is emphasized.

We describe a gene from Drosophila melanogaster related to the alpha-amylase gene Amy. This gene, which exists as a single copy, was named Amyrel. It is strikingly divergent from Amy because the amino acid divergence is 40%. The coding sequence is interrupted by a short intron at position 655, which is unusual in amylase genes. Amyrel has also been cloned in Drosophila ananassae, Drosophila pseudoobscura, and Drosophila subobscura and is likely to be present throughout the Sophophora subgenus, but, to our knowledge, it has not been detected outside. Unexpectedly, there is a strong conservation of 5′ and 3′ flanking regions between Amyrel genes from different species, which is not the case for Amy and which suggests that selection acts on these regions. In contrast to the Amy genes, Amyrel is transcribed in larvae of D. melanogaster but not in adults. However, the protein has not been detected yet. Amyrel evolves about twice as fast as Amy in the several species studied. We suggest that this gene could result from a duplication of Amy followed by accelerated and selected divergence toward a new adaptation.
