Tunisians figure disproportionately among the foreign jihadist cohort, yet their ubiquity is somewhat confounding. Why Tunisians?

    Etude de la mise à 2x2 voies de la route RR27 entre Nabeul et Kélibia Etude d'Impact sur l’Environnement CHAPITRE 1. INTRODUCTION Le présent dossier constitue l'étude d'impact sur l'environnement du projet de la mise en 2x2 voies de la route de la RR27 entre Nabeul et Kélibia et la réalisation des déviations de Korba et Menzel Témime dans le gouvernorat de Nabeul. Les études techniques et d’EIE ont été confiées au bureau d'études B.T.E. (Bureau Tunisien des Etudes) par la Direction des Etudes du Ministère de l'Equipement. Ce projet est soumis aux dispositions de la loi n°88-91 du 2 août 1988 et notamment son article 5, ainsi qu'au décret n°91-362 de mars 1991 et au décret n°2005-1991 du 11 juillet 2005, qui précisent que la réalisation d'une étude d'impact sur l'environnement et son agrément par l'ANPE sont un préalable à toute autorisation de création d'activités nouvelles susceptibles d'engendrer des nuisances pour l'environnement. 1.1 CADRE GENERALE Le Cap Bon est un cap qui constitue la pointe nord-est de la Tunisie situé sur la mer méditerranée, il ouvre le canal de Sicile et ferme le golfe de Tunis. Appelé parfois « beau promontoire », les habitants connaissent cette péninsule sous le nom de Rass Eddar. À l'époque de la puissance de la civilisation carthaginoise, il constituerait la limite méridionale au-delà de laquelle ne peuvent plus circuler les navires romains. Le Cap Bon donne également son nom à toute la péninsule s'étendant jusqu'aux villes d'Hammamet (au sud) et de Soliman (à l'ouest).

    Atti 13a Conferenza Nazionale ASITA - Bari 1-4 dicembre 2009 Change detection and environmental impacts assessment of Tabarka coastal area - North Western of Tunisia Nabila Halouani(*) , Alberto Marini(**) and Moncef Gueddari(*) (*) Faculty of Sciences of Tunis, Geochemistry and Environmental Geology laboratory, Campus universities, Tunis 2092, Tunisia. E-mail: [email protected] (**) Cagliari University - Earth Sciences Department, "TeleGIS" Laboratory, Via Trentino, 51- 09127 Cagliari – Italia e-mail: [email protected] Riassunto: La protezione delle aree costiere è una parte vitale di tutti i programmi per uno sviluppo sostenibile: anche in Tunisia i litorali sono soggetti ad una erosione progressiva a lungo termine, che minaccia il patrimonio naturale e culturale. L'erosione litoranea deriva da una combinazione di vari fattori, sia naturali che di natura antropica, basati su modelli che si evolvono nello spazio e nel tempo in maniera differente. La costa di Tabarka, inserita nel litorale tunisino nordoccidentale, presenta un'alternanza di promontori rocciosi e di spiagge sabbiose. Anche se non ancora molto urbanizzato, questo litorale è tuttavia soggetto a degradazione ed a modifiche, particolarmente lungo la line di costa, con erosione significativa in alcuni tratti. Questa ricerca è volta all’analisi dello sviluppo della linea costiera ed alla valutazione del Figure 1: Location map of study area potenziale cambiamento, applicando tecniche di telerilevamento ad una serie di foto aeree e di immagini multitemporali da satellite (Landsat e Quickbird). Lo studio analizza l'intensità delle correnti litoranee ed i tassi di evoluzione della linea di costa col desiderio di fornire un riferimento utile per favorire le autorità locali nelle decisioni circa la gestione futura della fascia costiera.
