Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’arbre en ville est devenu une préoccupation majeure en matière d’environnement et de développement durable. Conserver au mieux notre patrimoine arboré est une façon de le faire perdurer pour répondre à cet enjeu. Face à l’accroissement de l’urbain, les conditions de survie sont bien souvent dégradées, les aménagements devront alors prendre en considération l’ensemble des contraintes pour laisser les arbres exprimer leur potentiel esthétique,social, environnemental et patrimonial. L’arbre urbain est fortement dépendant de son environnement, qui, conditionné par l’activité humaine, apparait bien souvent comme hostile à son bon développement et sa bonne santé. Un état des lieux et un ensemble de diagnostics sont nécessaires pour bien identifier l’arbre et cerner l’ensemble des contraintes qui peuvent influer sur le projet. En tant qu’élément structurant du paysage, il est à inscrire au coeur du projet comme composante directrice de la conception. La réussite de la conservation tient pour beaucoup à l’implication de chacun des acteurs. Des solutions existent, les mesures réglementaires sont autant d’outils contre la disparition des arbres de notre paysage. Les solutions d’aménagement en réponse aux besoins d’espace, de sol, d’accès à l’eau et de richesse du milieu sont aussi nombreuses que le permet l’imaginaire des concepteurs.

Download or read book L arbre en milieu urbain written by Claude Guinaudeau and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La collection Guide Pratique Aménagements urbains durables s'inscrit dans le contexte du développement durable. Non négligeables pour l'image de la ville, les aménagements urbains contribuent à son attractivité et à l'amélioration du cadre de vie et du bien-être des habitants. Chaque titre de la collection traite d'une thématique spécifique de la phase conception à la phase entretien sans oublier la réalisation et le contrôle. Les éléments proposés permettent d'établir un marché de travaux. Les guides de cette collection permettent de répondre aux attentes des usagers tout en intégrant des enjeux fondamentaux tels que la sécurité ou la viabilité technique et économique. Symboles de la nature, les arbres participent fortement au cadre de vie des citoyens urbains qui représentent plus de 80 % de la population française. La ville est cependant un milieu hostile aux arbres. Il est donc indispensable de connaître les bonnes pratiques pour réussir des plantations durables d'arbres dans la ville, en particulier les prescriptions du fascicule 35. Le Guide Pratique Aménagements urbains durables " L'arbre en milieu urbain " répond de façon très illustrée (plus de 150 schémas et photos) aux questions suivantes : • Quelles sont les contraintes du végétal et du minéral ? • Comment concevoir les espaces à planter (emplacements, qualité des sols) ? • Quels sont les critères de choix des bonnes espèces ? • Comment bien exécuter et entretenir les plantations (fascicule 35 du CCTG, démarche qualité...) ? • Comment gérer les arbres existants sur un chantier de construction ? Ce guide aborde aussi les aspects budgétaires liés à la plantation des arbres. Il intéressera donc tous les intervenants de la plantation d'arbres : maîtres d'ouvrage (collectivités, aménageurs), maître d'oeuvre (architectes, paysagistes, bureaux d'études), entreprises et gestionnaires, sans oublier les citoyens dont il faut satisfaire les besoins et les exigences. L'auteur de ce guide (illustré par Jean-Claude Guinaudeau) est Claude Guinaudeau, ingénieur horticole spécialiste de l'arbre hors forêt dans l'espace agricole, les réseaux de transport et les zones urbaines. Consultant de la FAO pour des programmes de plantation en Afrique et en Chine, il a participé à la réalisation de grands projets d'aménagement : autoroutes, TGV, Disneyland Paris, Cité internationale de Lyon...

Download or read book Terra 2008 written by Leslie Rainer and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2011-06-14 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Download or read book The European Landscape Convention written by Michael Jones and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.

Download or read book Agroforestry Parklands in Sub Saharan Africa written by Jean-Marc Boffa and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document attempts to present the current state of knowledge on agroforestry parkland systems. These systems, which for many local populations are very important for food security, income generation and environmental protection, are found primarily in the semi-arid and sub-humid zones of West Africa. The document first provides a thorough description of their distribution and diversity and discusses different ways of classifying them. It also presents data on current trends in parkland development and assesses determining factors. The document then provides an in-depth analysis of biophysical tree-soil-crop interactions and the factors regulating them, and describes various improved parkland management techniques. It goes on to examine the strength and limitations of institutional arrangements as well as the constraints imposed by Sahelian forest policies on the sustainable management of parklands. The production, use and marketing of parkland products is reviewed with an emphasis on their contribution to food security, local and national income as well as social values. Overall costs and benefits of the practice of parkland agroforestry are evaluated. In conclusion, the document identifies crucial research needs and promising avenues for promoting sustainable management of parkland systems.

Download or read book One Parent One Language written by Susanne Döpke and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the relationship between young children's degrees of bilingualism and features of the verbal input which these children receive from their parents. In particular, it seeks to explore the following question: to what extent are families who follow the 'one parent-one language' principle and whose children become active bilinguals this way, different from families who take the same approach but whose children never develop an active command of the minority language? Case studies of six first-born children growing up with German and English were done during the children's third year of life. The input the children received was examined for parents' consistency of language choice, parents' insistence that the children use the appropriate language, parents' sensitivity towards the children's interactional and attentional needs, and parents' orientation towards the teaching of formal aspects of the linguistic system. The findings support the notion that raising one's children bilingually according to the 'one parent-one language' principle involves great efforts on the side of the minority language-speaking parent. Importantly, they indicate that these efforts must be invested in the child's education turn-by-turn.

Download or read book Language Mixing in Infant Bilingualism written by Elizabeth Lanza and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the issue of language contact in the context of child language acquisition. Elizabeth Lanza examines in detail the simultaneous acquisition of Norwegian and English by two first-born children in families living in Norway in which the mother is American and the father Norwegian. She connects psycholinguistic arguments with sociolinguistic evidence, adding a much-needed dimension of real language-use in context to the psycholinguistic studies which have dominated the field. She draws upon evidence from other studies to support her claims concerning language dominance and the child's differentiation between the two languages in relation to the situation, interlocutor, and the communicative demands of the context. She also addresses the question of whether or not the language mixing of infant bilingualism is conceptually different from the codeswitching of older bilinguals, thus helping to bridge the gap between these two fields of study.

Download or read book New Vistas in Agroforestry written by P. K. R. Nair and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-06-17 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of 31 multi-authored, rigorously peer-reviewed chapters on different aspects of agroforestry, produced as a compendium on the occasion of the 1st World Congress of Agroforestry, June 2004. Its contenst include a tropical-temperate mix of topics, which is a rare feature of a publication of this nature. Several of the chapters are on topics that have not been discussed or described much in agroforestry literature. A third feature is that some of the authors, though well known in their own disciplinary areas, are somewhat new to agroforestry; the perceptions and outlooks of these scholars who are relatively uninfluenced by the past happenings in agroforestry gives a whole new dimension to agroforestry and broadens the scope of the subject. Finally, rather than just reviewing and summarizing past work, most chapters take the extra effort in attempting to outline the next steps. Agroforestry stands to gain enormously from the infusion of these new and different ideas and bold initiatives, thus making the title "New Vistas" quite justifiable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lisa is 4 years and 5 months old and Giulia 3 years and 4 months. One morning, the girls' father is taking them to nursery school. L: ... e bravissima, ha riscaldato l'auto. E' bravissima, vera? In praising the sun for having warmed up the car, Lisa has referred to it in the feminine gender, as in the German die Sonne. Her father corrects her by using the masculine gender. F: E' bravissimo. E' if sale. L: E' un maschietto, if sale? (Is the sun a little boy?) F: E'maschife. (It's masculine.) G [determined]: E' una femmina! (No, it's a girl!) F: Forse in tedesco. (Perhaps it is in German.) is left disoriented, speechless. Giulia This book is devoted to language acquisition in children who have been expos ed to two languages since birth. It has often been said that the study of simultaneous bilingualism is the "most fertile ground" for the formulation of general theories on language acquisition processes, and indeed, most of the studies on early bilingualism aim in this direction. But in a sense this book serves the reverse purpose. Using the results of psycholinguistic research as a basis, I have sought to understand the peculiarities of the process of language organization in the child who faces the problem of learning two languages when other children are learning only one. Thus, the recurring theme of my study is the diversity of bilingual as opposed to monolingual acquisition.
