Corrélations entre dépôts quaternaires glaciaires, fluviatiles et marins en Corse (Méditerranée occidentale) in Glaciations quaternaires dans l'Hémisphère Nord. (Relationships between glacial, fluvial and marine Quaternary deposits in Corsica
The stratigraphy of Quaternary glacial and fluvial sediments in Corsica is summarized. New results concerning relationships between marine and fluvial deposits are exposed : downvalley, fluvial sedimentation occurred both when the sea-level was high
The breeding biology and demography of Blue tit (Parus caerulens) and coal tit (Parus ater) populations of southern France and Corsica were compared from 1976 to 1980. The following differences were found: 1. the onset of the breeding season
is delayed in Corsica| 2. the clutch-size is smaller on the island| 3. the mortality of the nestlings is also much higher in Corsica| 4. however, the survival rate of adult tits is higher in Corsica than on the mainland| 5. contrary to what is the rule
The bird faunas of two vegetation gradients ranging from open grassland to high forest were compared in southern France and Corsica. On the whole, species richness is lower (ca 30 %) in Corsica than on the mainland. However, a low bird species
habitats. The differences are attributable to a broader habitat use by forest birds which formerly colonized Corsica (i.e. an increased niche breadth).
Corrélations entre la sédimentation fluviatile et la sédimentation marine littorale en Corse. in Colloque AFEQ, Paris 1983. (Relationship between the fluvial sedimentation and the coastal marine sedimentation in Corsica (Western Mediterranean)
On the western coast of Corsica, some sections are described, showing fluvial deposits passing laterally to marine sands and pebbles. In other places, fluvial sediments seem to be simultaneous with a marine regression. The coasts with fluvial
