Evaluation de la qualité des sites internet francophones traitant de la dépendance à l'alcool [Assessing the quality of French language web sites pertaining to alcohol dependency]

The objective of this article is to systematically assess the quality of web-based information in French language on the alcohol dependence. The authors analysed, using a standardised pro forma, the 20 most highly ranked pages identified by 3 common internet search engines using 2 keywords. Results show that a total of 45 sites were analysed. The authors conclude that the overall quality of the sites was relatively poor, especially for the description of possible treatments, however with a wide variability. Content quality was not correlated with other aspects of quality such as interactivity, aesthetic or accountability.

Sedimentological and benthic foraminiferal data pertaining to ODP Holes 208-1262A and 208-1263C

Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 (ETM2) occurred ~1.8 Myr after the Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) and, like the PETM, was characterized by a negative carbon isotope excursion coupled with warming. We combined benthic foraminiferal and sedimentological records for Southeast Atlantic Sites 1263 (1500 m paleodepth) and 1262 (3600 m paleodepth) to show that benthic foraminiferal diversity and accumulation rates declined more precipitously and severely at the shallower site during peak ETM2. The sites are in close proximity, so differences in surface productivity cannot have caused this differential effect. Instead, on the basis of an analysis of climate modelling experiments, we infer that changes in ocean circulation pattern across ETM2 may have resulted in more pronounced warming at intermediate depths (Site 1263). The effects of more pronounced warming include increased metabolic rates, leading to a decrease in effective food supply and increased deoxygenation, thus potentially explaining the more severe benthic impacts at Site 1263. In response to more severe benthic disturbance, bioturbation may have decreased at Site 1263 as compared to Site 1262, hence differentially affecting the bulk carbonate record. We use a sediment-enabled Earth system model to test whether a reduction in bioturbation and/or the likely reduced carbonate saturation of more poorly ventilated waters can explain the more extreme excursion in bulk d13C and sharper transition in wt% CaCO3 at Site 1263. We find that both enhanced acidification and reduced bioturbation during peak ELMO conditions are needed to account for the observed features. Our combined ecological and modelling analysis illustrates the potential role of ocean circulation changes in amplifying local environmental changes and driving temporary, but drastic, loss of benthic biodiversity and abundance.
