Abstract

Habitat typology obtained from the statistical analysis of underwater video data collected from the STAVIRO autonomous unbaited video technique (AMBIO project)

Cold-water coral habitat mapping in submarine canyons of the bay of Biscay was realized by the deep sea laboratory of Ifremer. Data came from the EVHOE 2009 cruise in the framework of the CoralFish project and as part of an agreement between Ifremer and the Agence des Aires Marines Protégées. The method was based on image analyses. Images were acquired using the towed camera « SCAMPI » during the EVHOE 2009 cruise (from 18/10/2009 to 01/12/2009, chief scientists: Jean-Pierre LEAUTE and Michèle SALAUN). Observed habitats were defined according to the CoralFish typology (J.S. Davies, B. Guillaumont, F. Tempera, A. Vertino, L. Beuck, S.H. Ólafsdóttir, C.J. Smith, J.H. Fosså, I.M.J. van den Beld, A.

In the Mediterranean deep-sea two scleractinian species, Lophelia pertusa (= Desmophyllum pertusum) and Madrepora oculata, make up the dominant structure-forming corals. The Lacaze-Duthiers canyon is the only French Mediterranean canyon where the two species L. pertusa and M. oculata have been observed living together in large quantities, the situation generally described for the biocoenosis of cold-water corals (CWC). In this canyon large colonies (more than 40 cm) of both species of scleractinians were observed at depths ranging from 246 m to 541 m at the head of the canyon and its western flank. The second canyon is the Cassidaigne canyon, where M. oculata seems to be the only structure-forming scleractinian there. The largest concentration of M. oculata colonies was observed on the west flank of the canyon along a crest at depths ranging from 200 to 210 m. Mature M. oculata colonies attained heights up to 40 cm. M. oculata were observed in three other canyons: Bourcart, Sicié and Var. In the Bourcart canyon, M. oculata was observed on a shelf of hard substratum at 331 m depth. Several single branches protruded from a slab. In the Sicié canyon a 15-cm colony of M. oculata was observed at 255 m depth, while in the Var canyon, three young branches 2 cm long were seen growing at 350 m depth on a wall of hard rock.

Cold-water coral habitat mapping in submarine canyons of the bay of Biscay was realized by the deep sea laboratory of Ifremer. Data came from the BOBGEO2 cruise in the framework of the CoralFish project and as part of an agreement between Ifremer and the Agence des Aires Marines Protégées. The method was based on image analyses. Images were acquired using the towed camera « SCAMPI » during the BOBGEO2 cruise (from 18/07/2010 to 25/07/2010, chief scientist: Jean-François BOURILLET, Ifremer Brest). Observed habitats were defined according to the CoralFish typology (J.S. Davies, B. Guillaumont, F. Tempera, A. Vertino, L. Beuck, S.H. Ólafsdóttir, C.J. Smith, J.H. Fosså, I.M.J. van den Beld, A.

Chemins conçus pour préserver et valoriser le patrimoine du Douaisis, protéger l'environnement et développer les loisirs. 200 km de chemins de randonnée sont proposés au public.

pied_plage_1950 est une polyligne qui indique la position du pied de plage (en fonction des configurations : limite entre sable et platier récifal ou ligne interne de déferlement des vagues) de 4 communes d'étude de la Réunion : Saint-Denis, Le Port, Saint-Paul et Saint-Pierre. Cette donnée a été créée dans le cadre du projet VulneraRe et sert à analyser les évolutions de la position du trait de côte et de la zone tampon. Cette couche existe également pour les années 1978 et 2011.
