Geschiebestatistische Anmerkungen zur Quartärstratigraphie des nordischen Vereisungsgebietes
Creators: name: Lüttig, Gerd
Publisher: name: Geozon Science Media
Year: 1999

description: Die Idee, die in den Moränenbildungen der norddeutschen Vereisungen erkennbaren Leitgeschiebe auszuzählen und diese Zählungen statistisch zu verwerten, geht auf Forchhammer zurück. Aber zwischen dessen Äußerung im Jahre 1843 und den ersten Zählungen durch J. Korn (in Schroeder & Stoller, 1905, 1909) und V. Milters (1909) lag die berühmte Frühphase der norddeutschen Vereisungslehre und des Polyglazialismus', und von statistisch brauchbaren Zählungen kann man eigentlich erst von Hesemann (1930) ab rechen, gefolgt von den Arbeiten von van der Lijn (1932) und K. Richter (1933 u. f.). Seit Beginn der 50er Jahre ist dann im gesamten Ausstrichbereich der nordischen Glaziärablagerungen von den Niederlanden bis nach Polen die Geschiebestatistik als Hilfswissenschaft, immerhin aber als etablierte Methode eingesetzt worden, und sie hat - ganz gleich welche Methode verwendet wurde - dann zur Unterstützung lithostratigraphischer Korrelationen in brauchbarer Weise beitragen können, wenn — durch an biostratigraphischen Profilen geeichte Proben ein verläßliches Gerüst in die Zählungen eingebaut werden konnte, — die statistischen Vergleiche auf vernünftig große Regionen beschränkt und — durch andere lithologische, petrographische und fazielle Betrachtungen unterstützt wurden. Quartärstratigraphie ist niemals mit Hilfe nur eines methodischen Ansatzes erarbeitbar; sie bedarf der multiplen stratigraphischen Klassifikation. So verstehen auch die Geschiebestatistiker ihre Arbeit als einen von verschiedenen möglichen Annäherungsversuchen.

Über den Stand der paläomagnetischen Untersuchungen im Pliozän und Pleistozän der Bundesrepublik Deutschland

description: Die MATUYAMA/BRUNHES-Grenze konnte am Mittelrhein in der Schichtenfolge von Kärlich relativ stark eingeengt werden. Sie ist dort älter als die 6. Eiszeit vor heute und liegt in einer Wechselfolge von Sedimenten, die dem „Ville-Interglazial-Komplex" zugeordnet wird. Möglicherweise muß diese Grenze sogar noch etwas tiefer gelegt werden in einen Horizont mit ersten Zeugnissen eiszeitlichen Dauerfrostbodens. In allen anderen untersuchten Lokalitäten ist die Lückenhafbigkeit der Überlieferung zu groß für detailliertere Aussagen. Die MATUYAMA-Epoche ist vorerst sowohl am Rhein wie an der Donau wegen der vorwiegend gröberklastischen Gesteinsfazies nur bedingt mit der Feingliederung des ältesten Pleistozäns korrelierbar. So sind in der Ville (Tgb. Frechen) mehrere altquartäre warmklimatische Tonhorizonte revers magnetisiert (Tonhorizont B2 und C). Darüber folgt ein normal magnetisierter Horizont (Tonhorizont D), der sich ebenfalls noch im Liegenden der Hauptterrassenfolge befindet. Schließlich wurde neuerdings im Liegenden dieser Abfolge ein weiterer, bereits quartärer Horizont (Bl) gefunden, in welchem sich eine Umpolung von normal nach revers vollzieht. Die Schwierigkeit besteht vorerst noch darin, diese Abfolge geobotanisch genauer zu definieren. Die GAUSS-Epoche läßt sich hingegen in einen guten Zusammenhang mit dem mittleren bis höheren Pliozän bringen (Brunssumium bis mittleres Reuverium). Die Tertiär/Quartär-Grenze auf geobotanischer Grundlage kann nach diesen Befunden etwa mit 2 Mio. Jahre vor heute relativ gut festgelegt werden; denn im höchsten Reuverium (C), das zumeist der Erosion zum Opfer gefallen ist, wurde bereits die Umpolung zur reversen Matuyama-Epodie (Beginn rd. 2,4 Mio. Jahre vor heute) gefunden.

description: In the lines of our approach in \cite{Ouorou2019}, where we exploit Nesterov fast gradient concept \cite{Nesterov1983} to the Moreau-Yosida regularization of a convex function, we devise new proximal algorithms for nonsmooth convex optimization. These algorithms need no bundling mechanism to update the stability center while preserving the complexity estimates established in \cite{Ouorou2019}. We report some preliminary computational results on some academic test problem to give a first estimate of their performance in relation with the classical proximal bundle algorithm.

Die Beziehung der äolischen Decksedimente in Nordwestdeutschland zur nördlichen Lößgrenze
Creators: name: Siebertz, Helmut
Publisher: name: Geozon Science Media
Year: 1988

description: Entlang des Mittelgebirgsrandes verläuft eine mehr oder weniger kontinuierliche Grenze von äolischen Decksedimenten, die als „nördliche Lößgrenze" bezeichnet wird. Diese klassische nördliche Lößgrenze ist klima-morphologisch zu deuten. Äolische Sedimente nördlich außerhalb dieser Grenze wurden bisher als Sonderfazies (Flottsande, Sandlösse) der Lößablagerung bezeichnet. Lokale Untersuchungen an äolischen Decksedimenten im Niederrheingebiet zeigen, daß die Sedimente nördlich dieser Grenze durchaus als Lösse zu bezeichnen sind. Dies führt zu der Erkenntnis, daß die nördliche Lößgrenze neu definiert werden muß. Da die nördliche Lößgrenze sich aus lokal unterschiedlich aufgebauten Sedimenten zusammensetzt, sollte sie als nördliche Grenze der äolischen Decksedimente aufgefaßt werden. Ferner wird erwogen, die Decksedimentgrenze nicht durch Korngrößenfraktionen, sondern mit Hilfe einer Kennzahl für Sedimente, dem Feinheitsgrad (FG), zu definieren.

description: Es werden die Ergebnisse geologischer Kartierarbeiten im Holozän einzelner kleiner Ausschnitte des Flußgebietes der Weser mitgeteilt. Im Raum von Elze (Leine), Stolzenau (Weser) und Barenburg (Große Aue) (Abb. 1) ließ sich der holozäne Auelehm mindestens drei verschiedenen Sedimentationsperioden zuordnen. Die älteste Auelehm-Bildung beginnt in diesen Gebieten, den Gesetzmäßigkeiten der Flußterrassen-Bildung folgend, zu verschiedenen Zeiten und findet spätestens in der ersten Hälfte des Subatlantikums ihren Abschluß. Zwei jüngere Auelehme sind dagegen deutlich anthropogen und zeitlich um oder nach Beginn der Zeitrechnung, überwiegend nach Anfang des zweiten nachchristlichen Jahrtausends einzustufen. Zweck dieser Mitteilung ist es, kartiertechnische Empfehlungen zum Ausdruck zu bringen. Erst wenn weitere Ausschnitte des Flußgebietes geologisch neu aufgenommen sind, wird man in der Lage sein, Ursachen und Bedeutung der mehrmaligen Auelehmsedimentation richtig zu verstehen.

description: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have recently emerged as a robust framework for graph-structured data. They have been applied to many problems such as knowledge graph analysis, social networks recommendation, and even Covid19 detection and vaccine developments. However, unlike other deep neural networks such as Feed Forward Neural Networks (FFNNs), few analyses such as verification and property inferences exist, potentially due to dynamic behaviors of GNNs, which can take arbitrary graphs as input, whereas FFNNs which only take fixed size numerical vectors as inputs. This paper proposes an approach to analyze GNNs by converting them into FFNNs and reusing existing FFNNs analyses. We discuss various designs to ensure the scalability and accuracy of the conversions. We illustrate our method on a study case of node classification. We believe that our approach opens new research directions for understanding and analyzing GNNs.

title: The development of professional management in the public sector of the United Kingdom from 1855 to 1925 : the case of the ordnance factories
Creators: name: Black, John
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2000

description: This thesis is an exploration into the development and professionalism of management in the Ordnance Factories from 1855 to 1925. Writing in 1969, Ashworth commented that: "Naval historians have usually been concerned much more with warfare, politics, the careers of great leaders than with the business side of the service. The technical characteristics of warships and their annament have received much attention, but the economic question (apart from the simple demand for money), which have been inseparably linked with technical advance, has attracted less study. Yet there are several ways in which the provision and running of a large and growing navy must have a peculiar significance and interest for the economic historian." (Ashworth, 1969: 491) This is also similar to the development of the Anny from 1855. Recent historians have focused on the Ministry of Munitions as the catalyst for management change within government departments. In particular Loft (1986, 1988, 1994) and Marriner (1980) have explored the change in government accounting procedures within the Ministry of Munitions due to the proliferation of professional accountants into the wartime government as temporary civil servants. There is a notion in history that the pre-I915 War Office was regarded as an inefficient organisation whereas the temporary and monolithic Ministry of Munitions is heralded as the organisation of change, having the services of "the men of push and go" (Lloyd- George, 1938; Adams, 1978). The refonns of the Ordnance Factories from 1862 were mainly accounting driven and the catalyst for these changes were probably due to the logistical failures of the British Anny in the Crimean War. The refonns themselves were undertaken by civil servants although there was a nucleus of military talent, the concept of the soldier technologist was never as influential as the American experience. However, the Ordnance Factories did evolve into a factory system in the post-Crimean era, whereas the contemporary engineering industry was still dominated by the myth of the craft skill, subcontracting and a workshop ethos. By 1915 the Ordnance Factories reflected a high degree of professionalism within its management ethos which probably was better than that experienced by the contemporary private sector.

description: In this study, a fully self-consistent method was developed to obtain the wave functions of the positron and electrons in molecules simultaneously. The wave function of a positron at room temperature , with a characteristic energy of approximately $0.04 eV$, was used to analyse the experimental results of its annihilation in helium, neon, hydrogen, and methane molecules. The interactions between the positron and molecule provide a significant correction in the gamma-ray spectra of the annihilating electron--positron pairs. It was also observed that high-order correlations offered almost no correction in the spectra, as the interaction between the low-energy positron and electrons cannot drive the electrons into excited electronic states. More accurate studies, which consider the coupling of the positron--electron pair states and vibration states of nuclei, must be undertaken.

description: With the recent explosive growth of mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets, guaranteeing consistent web appearance across all environments has become a significant problem. This happens simply because it is hard to keep track of the web appearance on different sizes and types of devices that render the web pages. Therefore, fixing the inconsistent appearance of web pages can be difficult, and the cost incurred can be huge, e.g., poor user experience and financial loss due to it. Recently, automated web repair techniques have been proposed to automatically resolve inconsistent web page appearance, focusing on improving usability. However, generated patches tend to disrupt the webpage's layout, rendering the repaired webpage aesthetically unpleasing, e.g., distorted images or misalignment of components. In this paper, we propose an automated repair approach for web pages based on meta-heuristic algorithms that can assure both usability and aesthetics. The key novelty that empowers our approach is a novel fitness function that allows us to optimistically evolve buggy web pages to find the best solution that optimizes both usability and aesthetics at the same time. Empirical evaluations show that our approach is able to successfully resolve mobile-friendly problems in 94% of the evaluation subjects, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art baseline techniques in terms of both usability and aesthetics.

Die Ergebnisse liefern erste Anhaltspunkte für die Annahme, daß der Würm- und Riß-Vereisung eine Mindel- und Günz-Vereisung vorausgegangen ist, eine Verbesserung des derzeitigen Forschungsstandes der Quartärstratigraphie im Gebiet des Rhônegletschers demnach möglich sein könnte.

description: Using numerical methods we thoroughly investigate the dynamical stability in the region between the two planets found in HD 74156. The two planets with minimum masses 1.56 M_JUP (HD 74156b) and 7.5 M_JUP (HD 74156c), semimajor axes 0.276 AU and 3.47 AU move on quite eccentric orbits (e=0.649 and 0.395). There is a region between 0.7 and 1.4 AU which may host additional planets which we checked via numerical integrations using different dynamical models. Besides the orbital evolution of several thousands of massless regarded planets in a three-dimensional restricted 4-body problem (host star, two planets + massless bodies) we also have undertaken test computation for the orbital evolution for fictive planets with masses of 0.1, 0.3 and 1 M_JUP in the region between HD74156b and HD74156c. For direct numerical integrations up to 10^7 years we used the Lie-integrator, a method with adaptive stepsize; additionally we used the Fast Lyapunov Indicators as tool for detecting chaotic motion in this region. We emphasize the important role of the inner resonances (with the outer planet) and the outer resonances (with the inner planet) with test bodies located inside the resonances. In these two "resonance" regions almost no orbits survive. The region between the 1:5 outer resonance (0.8 AU) and the 5:1 inner resonance (1.3 AU), just in the right position for habitability, is also very unstable probably due to three-body-resonances acting there. Our results do not strictly "forbid" planets to move there, but the existence of a planet on a stable orbit between 0.8 and 1.3 AU is unlikely.

description: We elaborate on the proposed general boundary formulation as an extension of standard quantum mechanics to arbitrary (or no) backgrounds. Temporal transition amplitudes are generalized to amplitudes for arbitrary spacetime regions. State spaces are associated to general (not necessarily spacelike) hypersurfaces. We give a detailed foundational exposition of this approach, including its probability interpretation and a list of core axioms. We explain how standard quantum mechanics arises as a special case. We include a discussion of probability conservation and unitarity, showing how these concepts are generalized in the present framework. We formulate vacuum axioms and incorporate spacetime symmetries into the framework. We show how the Schroedinger-Feynman approach is a suitable starting point for casting quantum field theories into the general boundary form. We discuss the role of operators.

description: The notion of Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis manifold generalizes that of Poisson-Nijenhuis manifold. The relevance of the latter in the theory of completely integrable systems is well established since the birth of the bi-Hamiltonian approach to integrability. In this note, we discuss the relevance of the notion of Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis manifold in the context of finite-dimensional integrable systems. Generically (as we show by an example with $3$ degrees of freedom) the Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis structure is largely too general to ensure Liouville integrability of a system. However, we prove that the closed (or periodic) $n$-particle Toda lattice can be framed in such a geometrical structure, and its well-known integrals of the motion can be obtained as spectral invariants of a "quasi-Nijenhuis recursion operator", that is, a tensor field $N$ of type $(1,1)$ defined on the phase space of the lattice. This example and some of its generalizations are used to understand whether one can define in a reasonable sense a notion of {\em involutive\} Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis manifold. A geometrical link between the open (or non periodic) and the closed Toda systems is also framed in the context of a general scheme connecting Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis and Poisson-Nijenhuis manifolds.

description: Chili thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood, is a newly introduced pest in the western hemisphere. It has the potential to cause significant damage to various vegetable, ornamental and fruit crops. Baseline information about its biology and management is very insufficient. Due to the paucity of knowledge about this pest we initiated a study on its biology and management. We conducted several studies to understand distribution pattern of S. dorsalis within the plant and within fields of Scotch Bonnet' pepper in St. Vincent in 2004 and 2005. S. dorsalis adults and larvae were most abundant on terminal leaves of a ' Scotch Bonnet' pepper plant followed by middle leaves, lower leaves, and reproductive parts. The distribution of both adults and larvae of S. dorsalis on the terminal leaves was aggregated irrespective of plot size (6, 12, 24 and 48 m2). Detailed information on distribution has been reported in a manuscript submitted to Florida Entomologist.

description: In the last decades, scene text recognition has gained worldwide attention from both the academic community and actual users due to its importance in a wide range of applications. Despite achievements in optical character recognition, scene text recognition remains challenging due to inherent problems such as distortions or irregular layout. Most of the existing approaches mainly leverage recurrence or convolution-based neural networks. However, while recurrent neural networks (RNNs) usually suffer from slow training speed due to sequential computation and encounter problems as vanishing gradient or bottleneck, CNN endures a trade-off between complexity and performance. In this paper, we introduce SAFL, a self-attention-based neural network model with the focal loss for scene text recognition, to overcome the limitation of the existing approaches. The use of focal loss instead of negative log-likelihood helps the model focus more on low-frequency samples training. Moreover, to deal with the distortions and irregular texts, we exploit Spatial TransformerNetwork (STN) to rectify text before passing to the recognition network. We perform experiments to compare the performance of the proposed model with seven benchmarks. The numerical results show that our model achieves the best performance.

description: Photonic qubits are key enablers for quantum-information processing deployable across a distributed quantum network. An on-demand and truly scalable source of indistinguishable single photons is the essential component enabling high-fidelity photonic quantum operations. A main challenge is to overcome noise and decoherence processes in order to reach the steep benchmarks on generation efficiency and photon indistinguishability required for scaling up the source. We report on the realization of a deterministic single-photon source featuring near-unity indistinguishability using a quantum dot in an 'on-chip' planar nanophotonic waveguide circuit. The device produces long strings of $>100$ single photons without any observable decrease in the mutual indistinguishability between photons. A total generation rate of $122$ million photons per second is achieved corresponding to an 'on-chip' source efficiency of $84 \%$. These specifications of the single-photon source are benchmarked for boson sampling and found to enable scaling into the regime of quantum advantage.

description: For a Lie algebroid, divergences chosen in a classical way lead to a uniquely defined homology theory. They define also, in a natural way, modular classes of certain Lie algebroid morphisms. This approach, applied for the anchor map, recovers the concept of modular class due to S. Evans, J.-H. Lu, and A. Weinstein.

description: In the optical and ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, UX Ursae Majoris is a deeply eclipsing cataclysmic variable. However, no soft X-ray eclipse was detected in ROSAT observations. We have obtained a 38 ksec XMM-Newton observation to further constrain the origin of the X-rays. The combination of spectral and timing information allows us to identify two components in the X-ray emission of the system. The soft component, dominant below photon energies of 2 keV, can be fitted with a multi-temperature plasma model and is uneclipsed. The hard component, dominant above 3 keV, can be fitted with a kT ~ 5 keV plasma model and appears to be deeply eclipsed. We suggest that the most likely source of the hard X-ray emission in UX UMa, and other systems in high mass transfer states, is the boundary layer.

description: The emergence of the graphon theory of large networks and their infinite limits has enabled the formulation of a theory of the centralized control of dynamical systems distributed on asymptotically infinite networks (Gao and Caines, IEEE CDC 2017, 2018). Furthermore, the study of the decentralized control of such systems was initiated in (Caines and Huang, IEEE CDC 2018, 2019), where Graphon Mean Field Games (GMFG) and the GMFG equations were formulated for the analysis of non-cooperative dynamic games on unbounded networks. In that work, existence and uniqueness results were introduced for the GMFG equations, together with an epsilon-Nash theory for GMFG systems which relates infinite population equilibria on infinite networks to finite population equilibria on finite networks. Those results are rigorously established in this paper.

description: We construct a wave-functional whose argument couples to boundary fermion currents in the AdS/CFT correspondence. Using this we calculate the contributions from bulk fermions to the chiral anomaly that give the subleading order term in the exact $N$-dependence of the chiral anomaly of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM. The result agrees with the calculation of Bilal & Chu.

description: The issue of fairness in recommendation is becoming increasingly essential as Recommender Systems touch and influence more and more people in their daily lives. In fairness-aware recommendation, most of the existing algorithmic approaches mainly aim at solving a constrained optimization problem by imposing a constraint on the level of fairness while optimizing the main recommendation objective, e.g., CTR. While this alleviates the impact of unfair recommendations, the expected return of an approach may significantly compromise the recommendation accuracy due to the inherent trade-off between fairness and utility. This motivates us to deal with these conflicting objectives and explore the optimal trade-off between them in recommendation. One conspicuous approach is to seek a Pareto efficient solution to guarantee optimal compromises between utility and fairness. Moreover, considering the needs of real-world e-commerce platforms, it would be more desirable if we can generalize the whole Pareto Frontier, so that the decision-makers can specify any preference of one objective over another based on their current business needs. Therefore, in this work, we propose a fairness-aware recommendation framework using multi-objective reinforcement learning, called MoFIR, which is able to learn a single parametric representation for optimal recommendation policies over the space of all possible preferences. Specially, we modify traditional DDPG by introducing conditioned network into it, which conditions the networks directly on these preferences and outputs Q-value-vectors. Experiments on several real-world recommendation datasets verify the superiority of our framework on both fairness metrics and recommendation measures when compared with all other baselines. We also extract the approximate Pareto Frontier on real-world datasets generated by MoFIR and compare to state-of-the-art fairness methods.

description: Aux Antilles, l'utilisation d'insecticides de la famille des organochlorés dans les bananeraies a été intense jusqu'aux années 1990. Des spécialités contenant du chlordécone ont bénéficié de mesures dérogatoires successives, jusqu'à leur interdiction totale en 1993. Aujourd'hui, la pollution environnementale de la Guadeloupe par ces organochlorés en particulier par le chlordécone est un sujet légitime de préoccupation. Des études conduites depuis 1998 ont montré que certains captages de l'île présentaient des concentrations en pesticides organochlorés plus de 100 fois supérieures aux limites réglementaires. Par ailleurs, une contamination, des sols et de certaines denrées de la chaîne alimentaire, par ces molécules extrêmement rémanentes dans le milieu a été mis en évidence. Il en résulte un potentiel d'exposition de la population qui nécessite d'être documenté afin de caractériser les risques pour la santé associés à cette exposition. Le Groupe Régional d'Etudes des Pollutions par les Produits Phytosanitaires (GREPP) dans son plan d'actions préconise d'une part, des actions visant à une meilleure connaissances des risques pathologiques encourus par la population et à une meilleure prise en compte de la gestion globale de la ressource en eau ; d'autre part, la réalisation d'études nécessaires à la mise en place de pratiques agricoles pour une agriculture plus respectueuse de la santé, de l'environnement et des ressources en eau.

description: Rhinolophus aethiops diversus subsp. nov. Type from Bakel, Senegal, French West Africa. No. 19.7.7.2774 British Museum (Natural History). Adult female in alcohol. Collected September 27,1887. From the Lataste collection. Characters. —Averages smaller than either a. aethiops or a. eloquens, with a narrower horseshoe and sella and a shorter lancet. The type, when dried, is darker than aethiops, being in general a faded brown. The hairs above are of uniform color to the base; below they are slightly darker at the base. The type, however, has been in alcohol for many years and the only skin is more than one hundred years old. The type skull is like that of aethiops but much smaller. Upper premolar two is present on one side only and is so minute that it is hard to see even with a lens. Lower premolar three is present on both sides and is also very minute. Measurements.— Type (maximum and minimum of topotypes in parentheses): Forearm 53.2 (52.8-55.6); third finger, metacarpal 40.6 (39-40.7), first phalanx 16 (16-17.7), second phalanx 30.3 (30-31.5); fourth finger, metacarpal 41.9 (41-42.7), first phalanx 9.6 (9.8-10.3), second phalanx 18.7 (17.9-18.7); first finger, metacarpal 41.9 (42-44), first phalanx 12.6 (12.5-13.2), second phalanx 13.9 (14.1-14.6). Ear 27 (27-28); tail 28.6 (28.8-32.7); tibia 22.6 (22.8-23.5). Skull of type: greatest length 23.1; condylo-basal length 19.6; palatal length 2.9; width across nasal swellings 6.1; interorbital width 2.6; zygomatic width 11.9; mastoid width 10.5; width of braincase 9.5; upper toothrow 8.8; width across canines 6.6; maxillary width 8.7; supraorbital length 6.4. Specimens examined.— Total 7. Bakel, Senegal, 2 males (ale.), 2 females (ale.); “River Gambia,” 1, no sex. Nerokoro, near Tambikunda, Sierra Leone, 1 male (ale.), 1 female (ale.). All in British Museum. Remarks. —All the forms of. aethiops are very much alike except a. hildebrandti, which is the largest.. diversus does not agree very well either with typical aethiops from Angola or with a. eloquens from the Sudan, being smaller and darker. The two specimens from Sierra Leone are not included in the measurements as they are both subadult and are only referred to. diversus.

description: Crossbreedings have been used for years, with the purpose of the genetic improvement of the local herd. They involve imported animals of some specialised breeds, selected according to individual production criterias, with the purpose of a short term improvement of the production level. But they cause a fall in adaptative traits, and can finally lead to a lower productivity than expected. Generally practiced without any clear genetic objective, they endangered the local genetic resources. The results obtained by INRA show that exists a genetic variability for the production traits in the local Créole cattle population, that could be exploited through selection. A breeding program of the Créole cattle has been implemented, with the purpose to improve the growth and the live morphology of animals, while maintaining the maternal qualities and adaptation to tropical environment. Several issues can be expected. On one hand, the improvement of the productive characters of the local breed would lead to a higher economic valuation of the retailed products. On other hand, hardiness and maternel qualities are traits of major importance for all breeders, including those using crossbreedings. A certified production subsector could also been implemented, based on the abilities of the local breed, to meet the demand of consumers of quality and safe products. Finally, this breeding program will also contribute to the in situ conservation of this genetic resource.

description: In allen großen Tälern der französischen Alpen ist die Existenz von Übertiefungen schon seit langem bewiesen worden. Die Glazialerosion hat übertiefte Ombilics gebildet und in den Schichtungen, auf die sie eingewirkt hat, mehr oder weniger tiefe Rinnen geprägt. Die Anfüllung der übertieften Ombilics besteht großenteils aus feinen Seesedimenten aber auch aus gröberen Schichtungen, welche wichtige Wasserlager darstellen können. Das Ausmaß der Vertiefungserscheinung ist bedeutend, und in manchen Tälern überschreitet die Stärke der alluvialen Anfüllung 400 m. Die Beispiele der Dracebene im Süden von Grenoble und des unteren Arvetals in Hoch-Savoyen unterstreichen die Wichtigkeit der wasserhaltigen Schichten, die man in den übertieften Tälern antreffen kann. Die Versorgungsbedingungen sind meistens sehr günstig; die nutzbaren Gebiete können jedoch durch eine einfache geologische Untersuchung nicht immer ausfindig gemacht werden.
