Using a numerical model approach and experimental verification, the potential for thermal resetting of luminescence signals of xenoliths in lava flows is demonstrated. As microdosimetry is an important aspect when using sample material extracted from crystalline whole rocks, autoradiography using image plates is introduced to the field of luminescence dating as a method for detection and assessment of spatially resolved radiation inhomogeneities. Determinations of fading rates of feldspar samples have been observed to result in aberrant g-values if the pause between preheat and measurement in the delayed measurements was kept short. A systematic investigation reveals that the phenomenon is caused by the presence of three signal components with differing individual fading behaviour. As this is restricted to short pauses, it is possible to determine a minimal required delay between preheating and measurement after which the aberrant behaviour disappears. This is applied in the measuring of 12 samples from phreatic explosion deposits from the Antsirabe – Betafo region in the Late Quaternary Vakinankaratra volcanic field. The samples were taken from stratigraphically correlatable sections and appear to represent at least three phreatic events, one of which created the Lac Andraikiba maar near Antsirabe. The obtained ages indicate that the eruptive activity in the region started in the Late Pleistocene between 113.9 and 99.6 ka. A second layer in the Betafo area is dated at approximately 73 ka and the Lac Andraikiba deposits give an age between 63.9 and 50.7 ka. The youngest phreatic layer is dated between 33.7 and 20.7 ka. These ages are the first recorded direct ages of such volcanic deposits, as well as the first and only direct ages for the Late Quaternary volcanism in the Vakinankaratra volcanic field. This illustrates the huge potential of this new method for volcanology and geochronology, as it enables direct numerical dating of a type of volcanic deposit which has not been successfully directly dated by any other method so far. V MISAOTRA BETSAKA!-THANKS! “Aza mandalo tana-misy havana.” – “Don’t pass by the house of a friend without paying him a visit.” (Malagasy proverb) Over the past years, these ‘houses’ have become more and more numerous, and I would not like to simply pass them by on my way to submit this thesis… Thank you, Guido, for giving me the opportunity to work on this project and for introducing me to (not only the geology of) Madagascar. I enjoyed the time in the field, the discussions and the THB. Even though the project turned out to be similar to driving along the back ways of the Hauts Plateaux, you kept your confidence in me. Thank you! Alfons, thank you for all the discussions in the field, your efforts in the final drawing of the geologic map and your help with the microprobe. Edwin, your enthusiasm in getting samples from the top of all those volcanoes made for arduous fieldwork, but this was more than balanced by the wealth of keen observations, fruitful discussions and generally the good time we spent in the field or over dinner “Chez Jacky”. Thanks a lot! I want to express a particularly big ‘Thank you!’ to Frank, who very kindly agreed to scientifically ‘adopt’ me when the entire project was on the verge of going south. Thank you for introducing me into the ‘circle of bright grains’ and to venture on an undertaking in which the sentence “Hey, nobody has done this before, but lets try it!” became something like a mission statement for a series of very interesting projects. I am grateful for your boundless optimism and enthusiasm, thank you - it was sorely needed. I am also very grateful to Markus Fiebig, who kindly agreed to evaluate this thesis as an external referee. I would also like to thank all other people who were, in one way or another, involved in this project: Michel Rakotondrazafy for helping with the exportation of rock samples from Madagascar, Lydia Zehnder for the XRF measurements, Marco Herweg for the introduction to the SEM and Igor Villa for providing me with the opportunity to learn so much about “Zen and the Art of Noble Gas Mass Spectrometer Maintenance”.

  • After 10 Years of Land Reform in Madagascar: Is the Process of Land Certification Massive and Inclusive?
    After 10 years of land reform in Madagascar: is the process of land certification massive and inclusive? Heriniaina Rakotomalala, Madagascar Land Observatory Perrine Burnod, CIRAD, UMR Tetis Gubert Flore, ,IRD UMR Dial Camille Saint Macary, IRD, UMR Dial 2017 World Bank Conference on Land and Poverty The World Bank – Washington DC, March 23, 2017 Malagasy Land Reform • The Malagasy reform, which started in 2005: – (i) decentralized land management through the creation of local land offices at commune level; and – (ii) land certification, which enables individuals to register private property provided the community agrees on the legitimacy of the claimed rights. • Contrary to similar land reforms in other African countries, Malagasy land certification is “on demand” and not based on a systematic demarcation process. Research question Question: Is the Malagasy certification really massive and inclusive or the preserve of the elites? Originality of the research: • Over the 2006-2016 period • It studies both certification demand and offer • On the demand side : it analyzes – the determinants of farmers’ demand for land certificates – and the evolution through time of these same determinants; • On the offer side : it analyzes the impact of information and promotional campaigns on level and distribution of demand Methodology (i) qualitative and in-depth interviews at the local level (ii) monthly data on land certificate demand for all communes equipped with a local land office (LLO) (see www.observatoire- foncier.mg) (iii) specially designed

Taylor Crowl Academic Advisor: Reine Razafimahefa Academic Director: Roland Pritchett Fall 2014 ! Abstract In Madagascar, legal systems of land tenure have been inaccessible for the vast majority of the rural population. This has stranded millions of subsistence farmers in a sense of insecurity, as they lack legal rights for the property that they have farmed for generations. Madagascar’s land reform, launched in 2005, attempted to change these exclusionary tenure practices.
