  • 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.

Abstract. Four economic species of Bactrocera flies have sequentially invaded French Polynesia: B. kirki (Froggatt) in 1928, B. tryoni (Froggatt) in 1970, B. dorsalis (Hendel), detected on Tahiti in 1996, and B. xanthodes (Broun), detected on the Austral Islands in 1998. Following a failed attempt to eradicate B. dorsalis, documented in this paper, it became established and the dominant fruit fly, displac- ing B. kirki and B. tryoni. Two braconid parasitoids were introduced from Hawaii and established: Fopius arisanus (Sonan) (released in 2002) and Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Ashmead) (released in 2007). By 2009 mean parasitism for fruit flies infesting common guava (Psidium guajava), Tahitian chestnut (Inocarpus fagifer), and tropical almond (Terminalia catappa) fruits on Tahiti was 70%, and 95% of the emerged parasitoids were F. arisanus. Numbers of B. dorsalis trapped from methyl eugenol and bred from guava, Tahitian chestnut and tropical almond have been reduced by 87%, 89%, 88%, and 91–94%, respectively, from the 2002–03 peaks.

    Cher lecteur, EDITO Jusqu’à présent régi par une délibération datant de 1977, le transport maritime est en pleine mutation. Une nouvelle loi de Pays sur l’organisation du transport maritime et aérien interinsulaires ainsi que le schéma directeur des déplacements durables interinsulaires 2015-2025 ont été adoptés en 2016. Après plusieurs mois de consultations et d’élaboration, la nouvelle délibération permettant de mieux réguler et améliorer les transports maritimes interinsulaires devrait voir le jour courant 2017. L’année 2016 a été marquée par l’arrêt d’activité du navire KURA ORA II. La Compagnie Maritime des Tuamotu (CMT), qui avait racheté ce navire en 2014, a cessé son exploitation en mai 2016. Le Pays a immédiatement réagi en lançant une consultation auprès des autres armements afin de répartir la desserte des îles auparavant desservies par le navire KURA ORA II pour que le ravitaillement de ces îles des Tuamotu ne soit pas trop impacté. Cette année 2016 a vu également la mise en service par le Pays d’une navette à passagers pour assurer la desserte des îles des Marquises du sud afin de combler le manque d’offre de transport régulier en passagers entre les îles de Fatu Hiva, Tahuata et Hiva Oa. Le projet de rachat des sociétés assurant l’exploitation des 4 navires TAPORO par le groupe EMAR, qui possède déjà les navires HAWAIKI NUI et NUKU HAU, n’a pas abouti. La cession de l’un des navires exploités sur la desserte des îles de la Société, condition exigée par l’Autorité polynésienne de la concurrence (APC) pour autoriser ce rachat afin d’éviter une situation de monopole sur cette desserte, a été un élément déterminant ayant conduit le groupe EMAR à abandonner le projet de rachat.

  • COPLARE on Waste in Oceania
    COPLARE on Waste in Oceania Waste in Oceania. Oceania? My atlas does not know any Oceania and in the German geography classes we did not learn about this term during our school days. Who else but honeymooners might be interested in the South Sea Islands? Do they have any relevance for the global structure? Oceania in the strictest sense are the islands lying between the west coast of the United States and Australia south of the equator: the Easter Island and Pitcairn, the Marquesas, Tuamotus, the Society, Gambier and the Austral Islands, the Cook Islands, Niue, Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, New Caledonia as well as the Solomon Islands. Strictly speaking, the islands of Micronesia, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand also belong to Oceania but we will ignore them for now in order to make it easier for us. Between Panama and Sydney there are 14.000 km of water where several thousand islands are spread. For the purpose of comparison: Frankfurt to Bangkok means only about 9.000 km. and within the national territory of French Polynesia, the island Nuku Hiva (Marquesas) is e.g. 1.900 km away from the island Tubuai (Austral Islands). Munich is as far away from Istanbul as Nuku Hiva from Tubuai. The distances between the islands are enormous and most of the islands are tiny. Many of them have only a few hundred inhabitants. In order to get a clearer idea, just look at the enclosed table and keep in mind that this table only maps the most densely populated islands. A total of 17.000 people e.g.
