Some species of seagrasses (e.g., Zostera marina and Posidonia oceanica) have declined in the Mediterranean, at least locally. Others are progressing, helped by sea warming, such as Cymodocea nodosa and the non-native Halophila stipulacea. The decline of one seagrass can favor another seagrass. All in all, the decline of seagrasses could be less extensive and less general than claimed by some authors. Natural recolonization (cuttings and seedlings) has been more rapid and more widespread than was thought in the 20th century; however, it is sometimes insufficient, which justifies transplanting operations. Many techniques have been proposed to restore Mediterranean seagrass meadows. However, setting aside the short-term failure or half-success of... |

A Spot satellite image was processed to assess the suitability of this facility for the cartography of epibenthic populations and bottom types in the Mediterranean sublittoral fringe. The area studied was on the north coast of Porquerolles island (Hyeres, SE France). The treated data were compared with mapping carried out by diving. We show that satellite remote sensing may permit a distinction between certain epibenthic populations and bottom types down to 10 m depth. Thus the usefulness of the satellite is reduced where the sublittoral is steeply shelving, as the mappable area is narrow and represented by only a few pixels, each of which tends to overlap several separate biocoenoses. The image treated was obtained in June under very favourable... |

L'algue d'origine japonaise Sargassum muticum (Phaeophyceae, Fucales) est maintenant bien établie dans l'Etang de Thau, à la suite de l'importation de naissain de l'huitre japonaise Crassostrea gigas. S. muticum vit fixé sur des substrats durs (roche, pierres, coquilles, cordes). Malgré les apparences, la biomasse de S. muticum est relativement modérée, si on la compare avec celle de certaines grandes Phaeophyceae méditerranéennes ou atlantiques. Des individus libres, la ramification du tronc (chez des individus âgés) la formation de nouvelles tiges dressées (à aspect de germinations) à partir de proliférations des crampons, et des thalles cespiteux, sont des caractères originaux qui caractérisent peut-être les populations de l'Etang de Thau. Les relations... |
