Differential Archaeology of Linguistic Signs
Social dimension of primates’ peripersonal space – MySPACE
The aim was to shed new light on the social modulation of space close to the body, by exploring its behavioral determinants and neural markers. In our social world, a comfort zone is necessary to regulate the distance between oneself and others and to avoid discomfort. Our hypothesis was that the space of communication and interaction with social information close to the body reflects an integration of our goals and our internal state.
Imperial and provincial responses to environmental and economic challenges on Rome’s frontier in the Egyptian desert (First-Sixth c. AD) – CRISIS
The second half of the third century AD used to be presented as a period of major political crisis within the Roman Empire. Historians have refined this “major crisis of the third century” and stressed the fact that regional situations differed strongly in the Provinces. In Egypt, signs of crisis, including environmental aspects, occur from the beginning of the third century all the way to the sixth century AD.The border region of the Great Oasis (Dakhla and Kharga) serves as an indicator.
Short time scale landscape evolution and topographic signature of extreme climatic and tectonic events – TOPO-Extreme
River terraces, knickpoints, alluvial fans and other morphological markers are routinely used to date and quantify landscape response to changes in climate or tectonics over long time-scale (>10.000 yr). However, those markers are rarely used to assess the natural variability of extreme events’ frequency and magnitude because both the formation and the evolution of those markers in response to internal or external solicitations remains poorly studied.
Scenarios for innovative management of urban wastewaters based on source separation – DESIGN
The challenge of the project is to evaluate the real benefits and constraints of alternative approaches for sanitation according to different criteria:<br />a) evaluating the reduction of pressures on the systems (sanitation and receiving environments); the reduction of GHG emissions; quantifying the flow of recyclable material;<br />b) developing key technologies for these new sectors<br />c) measuring the capacity of these new source separation sanitation systems to be well accepted;
