  • The Effects of the Cyclones of 1983 on the Atolls of the Tuamotu Archipelago (French Polynesia)
    THE EFFECTS OF THE CYCLONES OF 1983 ON THE ATOLLS OF THE TUAMOTU ARCHIPELAGO (FRENCH POLYNESIA) J. F. DUPON ORSTOM (French Institute ofScientific Research for Development through cooperation), 213 Rue Lafayette - 75480 Paris Cedex 10, France Abstract. In the TUAMOTU Archipelago, tropical cyclones may contribute to the destruction as well as to some building up of the atolls. The initial occupation by the Polynesians has not increased the vulnerability of these islands as much as have various recent alterations caused by European influence and the low frequency of the cyclone hazard itself. An unusual series of five cyclones, probably related to the general thermic imbalance of the Pacific Ocean between the tropics struck the group in 1983 and demonstrated this vulnerability through the damage that they caused to the environment and to the plantations and settle­ ments. However, the natural rehabilitation has been faster than expected and the cyclones had a beneficial result in making obvious the need to reinforce prevention measures and the protection of human settle­ ments. An appraisal of how the lack of prevention measures worsened the damage is first attempted, then the rehabilitation and the various steps taken to forestall such damage are described. I. About Atolls and Cyclones: Some General Information Among the islands of the intertropical area of the Pacific Ocean, most of the low-lying lands are atolls. The greatest number of them are found in this part of the world. Most atolls are characterized by a circular string of narrow islets rising only 3 to 10 m above the average ocean level.

  • TAHITI.2016 the Best of the TUOMOTU Archipelago MAY 15-25, 2016
    TAHITI.2016 The Best of the TUOMOTU Archipelago MAY 15-25, 2016 If you have thought of warm crystalline South Pacific Ocean, little sand islets with coconut palms swaying down to the waterline and water to blue it appears electric? Very few of us are immune to this sirens call of French Polynesia’s image – real or imagined - and so these celebrated gems of the South Pacific have become a crossroads for dreamers, adventurers and escapist sharing a common wanderlust. We count ourselves among these folk… following in the wake of Magellan, Cook and Wallis, but by means easier than they could have ever imagined. As a diver, there is also something special beneath the azure surface that beckons, something never painted by Gauguin. In fact, the far-flung waters around French Polynesia are some of the SHARK-iest in the world… and the high voltage diving serves up the kind excitement not every paradise can deliver. The expedition is scheduled for MAY 15-25, a 10 day itinerary starting in the famed atoll of Rangiroa and weather permitting include Tikehau, Apataki, Toau and will end the journey in the stunning atoll of Fakarava. We may also get a chance to stop at a couple of others along the way. The diving is off tenders that transport us to the sites where strong currents can be present. The thrill is not only to witness what gets drawn to these spots but also to ride the crystalline currents without fighting them. Advanced diver and Nitrox certification required to join this trip.

To understand spat collecting temporal Received in revised form and spatial variations, larval supply and its origin need to be characterized. To achieve this, it is necessary 14 May 2016 to account for the stock of oysters, its distribution and population characteristics (size distribution, sex- Accepted 19 June 2016 ratio). While the farmed stock in concessions can be easily characterized, the wild stock is elusive. Here, Available online 20 June 2016 we investigate the distribution and population structure of the wild stock of Ahe and Takaroa atolls using fine-scale bathymetry and in situ census data. Stocks were surprisingly low (~666,000 and ~1,030,000 Keywords: Invertebrate population oysters for Ahe and Takaroa respectively) considering these two atolls have both been very successful Aquaculture spat collecting atolls in the past.

    Marine Policy 93 (2018) 31–39 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Marine Policy journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/marpol Scaling tropical island conservation planning to the regional level can lead T to unbalanced ecological representation and poor social equity among islands ⁎ Lina Kabbadja,1, , Simon Van Wynsbergea,1, Serge Andréfouëtb a UMR-9220 ENTROPIE (Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, Université de La Réunion, CNRS), Tahiti, French Polynesia b UMR-9220 ENTROPIE (Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, Université de La Réunion, CNRS), Centre IRD de Noumea, Noumea, New Caledonia ABSTRACT The effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas (MPA) to manage natural resources has been undermined in small insular lagoons due to massive mortalities triggered by climatic events that have hit some lagoons but not others. To minimize the future risk of ineffective management efforts, it has previously been argued that management should focus on a multi-island conservation target (regional scale), rather than on individual lagoons (local scale). However, it is unclear how a MPA network designed to meet objectives at a regional scale would impact on the management of resources at the local scale. In particular, it is necessary to understand if a regional plan might incidentally maintain conservation objectives at the local scale, without disproportionately affecting, or relying on particular islands. This study used the population of the giant clam (Tridacna maxima)inafishery context to explore the distributions of conservation features and socio-economic costs for regional networks (computed within a set of islands), compared to individual islands. Designing a MPA network at regional scale led to unbalanced representation of conservation features among atolls and incidentally missed the targeted level of protection for conservation features at local scale.

  • "Coral" Islands: Data from the Bahamas and Oceania
    ADAPTATION AND EXCHANGES ON "CORAL" ISLANDS: DATA FROM THE BAHAMAS AND OCEANIA Frank R. Thomas This paper constitutes an attempt at delineating similarities and differences among prehistoric cultural traditions in insular tropical environments. While it has often been suggested that the amount and quality of ethnohistoric and linguistic coverage in the Caribbean area are a poor reflection of the types of information available for Oceania, the interest in subsurface investigations in the latter region (on atolls) is barely two decades old. Until the mid-1970s much of Micronesia was terra- incognita, and there are still many islands, particularly in the atoll/ raised coral categories awaiting the spade of the archaeologist. The fact that "true" atolls are absent in the West Indies should not divert us from the potential contributions that might arise in comparing human adaptation to constraints imposed by calcareous environments. On several occasions, Watters (1981, 1982, 1983) drew attention to the advances made by Pacific archaeologists in the area of subsistence; we might also add social organization and social complexity. Because of various limitations in the use of ethnographic data by their Caribbean counterparts and the benign neglect of a "seaward perspective", it was concluded that much could be learned from the work being accomplished in Oceania. THE INSULAR SETTING In order to select geological units that are comparable, one also needs to consider the quality of both ethnographic and archaeological sequences, as well as the areal distribution of coral islands. In effect, this study focuses on three "Coral Clusters" or "Coral Complexes'' for which there is a fairly adequate record of prehistoric and protohistoric cultural develop­ ments.

  • A Sociopolitical Analysis of Drinking Water Governance in French Polynesia: the Case of the Tuamotu Archipelago
    www.water-alternatives.org Volume 12 | Issue 3 Fustec, K. 2019. A sociopolitical analysis of drinking water governance in French Polynesia: The case of the Tuamotu Archipelago. Water Alternatives 12(3): 975-992 A Sociopolitical Analysis of Drinking Water Governance in French Polynesia: The Case of the Tuamotu Archipelago Klervi Fustec Independent researcher, France; [email protected] ABSTRACT: The assertion that only a small percentage of the French Polynesian population has access to drinking water is found in press reports and in reports by the French Senate and the French Polynesian Centre for Hygiene and Public Health, reports that were prepared in the context of implementing a new water law. In reality, however, inhabitants do have access to drinking water. How can we explain this discrepancy? This article analyses the sociopolitical dimensions of multilevel formal water governance in Tuamotu, one of the five French Polynesian archipelagos. Tuamotu's inhabitants use household rainwater harvesting cisterns for their drinking water provision. The analysis demonstrates that the current formal governance system is incapable of generating locally relevant and specific policies, and continues to struggle with inappropriate policy ideas derived from French Polynesia's experience as a French State. KEYWORDS: Drinking water, cisterns, multilevel formal governance, French Polynesia, Tuamotu INTRODUCTION French Polynesia is a French territory in the Pacific Ocean consisting of 48 municipalities. Since the 2004 reforms, it has enjoyed a degree of autonomy from the French State.1 While the French Polynesian government is responsible for general planning and water quality issues, it is the local authorities which have responsibility for access to drinking water and implementation of water.
