  • Sediment Budget and Morphological Evolution in the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel (Normandy, France): Aerial (LIDAR) and Terrestrial Laser Monitoring
    Littoral 2010, 12007 (2011) DOI:10.1051/litt/201112007 © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2011 Sediment budget and morphological evolution in the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel (Normandy, France): aerial (LIDAR) and terrestrial laser monitoring Gluard Lucile1, [email protected] Levoy Franck1, Bretel Patrice1, Monfort Olivier1, 1 Morphodynamique Continentale et Côtière UMR6143 Université de Caen – CNRS 2-4, rue des Tilleuls – 14 000 CAEN - FRANCE Abstract We propose a study on the use of laser techniques to monitor altimetric variations in the tidal flat of the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel. The Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel has been strongly anthropised. Because of impoldering, wandering rivers were not able to sap salt-meadow and modern tidal flooding of the Mont-Saint-Michel has lowered. Through modern studies and projects aimed at restoring the marine nature of the bay it appears that flushes are useful to discard sediment tending to silt the bay. The major aim of our work consists in the better understanding of the effect of the dam built recently (May 2009) in that purpose. Laser scanning is commonly used for topographic surveys and the generation of Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Repeating surveys, allow to quantify topographic changes and therefore sediment budgets. Our study is based on aerial topographic surveys of the intertidal zone acquired before the operational start up of the dam (in 1997, 2002, 2007 and February 2009). Sediment budgets computations confirm that the bay tends to accrete but at annual rates quite variable in time. The value computed between 2002 and 2007 is 2.3 times and 3.5 times smaller than the deposition rates computed for the 1997/2002 and 2007/2009 periods.

In 1814 it remained largely French-speaking, though it had been politically British for 600 years. The island's only town, St Peter Port (which in 1814 accommodated over half the population) had during the previous century developed a thriving commercial sector with strong links to England, whose cultural influence it began to absorb. The rural hinterland was, by contrast, characterised by a traditional autarkic regime more redolent of pre­ industrial France. By 1914, the population had doubled, but St Peter Port's share had fallen to 43 percent.

  • A Working List of the Birds of the Channel Islands
    A Working List of the Birds of the Channel Islands Glyn Young, Mark Lawlor & Jill Watson This Working List includes details of all those bird species recorded in the (British) Channel Islands of Jersey (including Les Ecrehous and Les Minquiers), Guernsey (including Herm, Jethou and Lihou), Alderney (including Burhou and the Casquets) and Sark that have been accepted by the islands’ respective ornithological committees. Some recent records may not be included, as the relevant committee has not yet verified them. Further details of each species or of individual records can be found in published reports or by contacting the committees directly (see below). Records are updated annually after individual islands’ records committees have discussed the preceding year’s reports. The report is currently updated to 31st December 2008 and the authors are grateful to Mark Atkinson (Alderney), Mick Dryden (Jersey) and Tony Paintin (Jersey) for their help in maintaining this list. Status To date it has been difficult for the authors to standardise the status of birds in the four islands as interpretation has often differed and coverage has been patchy. As a guideline, however, the following categories have been used to describe status: Resident - recorded throughout the year Migrants and non-breeding visitors Breeding species Accidental - each record is recounted Occasional - has bred in most years Occasional - individuals out of season Rare - 1-10 pairs breed in most years Rare - 5-20 records Scarce - 11-50 pairs breed in most years Scarce - 21-50 individuals Common - 51-500 pairs breed in most years Common - 51-100 individuals Very common - 500+ pairs breed in most years Very common - 101-1,000 individuals Abundant - more than 1,000 pairs breed in Abundant - more than 1,000 most years individuals In practice, some of the categories have been further elaborated (e.g.

  • H: Offshore Reefs and Islands
    H: OFFSHORE REEFS AND ISLANDS INTRODUCTION The Bailiwick of Jersey includes several groups of uninhabited islands and reefs which lie off the coast of the main island. Les Écréhous and Le Plateau des Minquiers lie approximately 9 km (6 miles) to the north-east and 20 km (13 miles) south of the main island respectively. To the west of Les Écréhous are the smaller reefs of Les Dirouilles and Paternosters. At high tide the reefs are little more than small rocky projections above water level while at low tide a vast area of fertile rock plateau is uncovered which, combined with the intertidal areas around mainland Jersey, effectively doubles the area of the Bailiwick. In 1956 the International Court of Justice at the Hague upheld Jersey's sovereignty over Les Écréhous and Le Plateau des Minquiers; a claim which had been disputed by France. This simple characterisation has been based on a desk study of existing information. The main sources are noted in Appendix 2. We would note that, to date, there is relatively little data on the offshore islands particularly with respect to archaeology, past land use and biodiversity and the reefs provide an important opportunity for future research. The following characterisation therefore represents a summary of present knowledge and information. Further research will considerably enhance our understanding of these important areas and increase their significance. The whole area of offshore reefs and islets is considered to form one main character type. There are nevertheless significant differences between the two main reefs of Les Écréhous and Le Plateau des Minquiers particularly in terms of their geographic location, relative isolation and biodiversity.

  • Jersey Location Geography Climate
    Jersey Location The Bailiwick of Jersey is located in Europe and has a total area of 45 square miles. Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands, which are located in the English Channel, off the coast of Normandy, France, and include Guernsey, Alderney, Sark, Herm, and Jethou. Jersey is 9 miles long and 5 miles wide. The island is 14 miles north of France and 100 miles south of Great Britain. It is bordered on the north by the English Channel and on the south by the Bay of Mont St Michel. Its political boundaries also include the reefs of Minquiers and the Ecrehous. (Jones) Geography The geography of the island is mainly gentle and rolling, with rougher hills along the northern coast with the English Channel. The highest point is 143 meters, while sea level is the island’s lowest point. The island’s location in between the Bay of Mont St Michel and the English Channel gives the island tidal ranges of over 40 feet, among the largest range in the world. Most of the island is a plateau which sweeps towards sea level as one travels south. The west end of the island features St Ouen’s Pond, which is Jersey’s largest fresh water source. The interior of the island is home to pastoral grazing lands and home to most of Jersey’s agriculture. Climate Jersey’s climate is quite temperate, due to its location in the English Channel. The island is the sunniest place in the British Isles with an average of over 1,951 hours per year.

In complex and wide open environments such as marine ecosystems, net accumulation is not only linked to the local renewal capacity of the water body, but also to the partial recirculation of water due to convective cells of various sizes. The English Channel, which can be considered as mainly dominated by tidal movements, exhibits such a complex quasi-permanent long-term circulation, made of a central “river” bordered with a lot of nested gyres. Here, we show that structures visible on satellite images of SST (Sea Surface Temperature), chlorophyll and SPIM (Suspended Particulate Inorganic Matter) can be explained by steady state distributions of tracers having various half-life durations, which can be computed using a simple technique of regularly distributed micro-injection in the permanent flow field.

  • The Minquiers and Écréhous in Spatial Context: Contemporary Issues and Cross Perspectives on Border Islands, Reefs and Rocks
    Island Studies Journal , Vol. 10, No. 2, 2015, pp. 163-180 The Minquiers and Écréhous in spatial context: Contemporary issues and cross perspectives on border islands, reefs and rocks Christian Fleury ESO (Espaces et Sociétés) Caen, Université de Caen-Normandie, France [email protected] and Henry Johnson University of Otago, New Zealand [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Minquiers and Écréhous reefs are located in different parts of the Gulf of St Malo between the British island of Jersey and the French mainland. As a part of the Bailiwick of Jersey, they are geographically very close to the international sea border between Jersey and France, and have had a history of disputed sovereignty. Due to their respective geographical locations and histories, the Minquiers and Écréhous are important sites for the field of Island Studies because of their existence as “border islands”. This article offers a study of these reefs in their spatial context of land and sea, discussing contemporary issues, including fishing, environmentalism and tourism, and offering cross perspectives in terms of their political, economic and cultural connections with Jersey and France. They exist in a context of immense spatial change with substantial tidal ebbs and flows, and between mainlands and historically contested maritime terrains. Such a study helps show how the Minquiers and Écréhous occupy an inbetween space (land, sea and nations), which resulted in international agreements in 2000 that confirmed both the maritime boundary separating France and Jersey, and the areas agreed on as common waters for fishing purposes within Jersey’s jurisdiction. In this setting, this paper offers a critical discussion on the nature of “islands inbetween” (including all the Channel Islands), where land and sea are interconnected as a result of nature, politics, historical fishing rights and leisure activities.
