Agrometeorological hazards associated with crop yield variability and severe losses in Sub-Saharan Africa
Extreme weather events are major sources of crop yield variability and increasingly contribute to severe yield losses, threatening livelihoods, sustainability and food security in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). While such events are projected to intensify and become more frequent, gaps remain in understanding which agrometeorological hazards are most strongly associated with yield anomalies and crop failures. Here, we use data from 1981–2016 to assess…
Problème de conservation des aires protégées en milieu urbain
Against a backdrop of urbanization and demographic growth, the Mbao classified forest is undergoing significant anthropization. This phenomenon has accentuated the expansion of agricultural areas and the exploitation of forest resources. It is linked to the modification of surfaces, which are undergoing a dynamic favoured by climate change and anthropic pressure. These changes have direct implications for the availability of natural resources. A …
Pratiques langagières des jeunes apprenants à Dakar et identités plurilingues et pluriculturelles
Learners who grow up in a multilingual environment have several linguistic resources at their disposal through which they construct and designate the same reality, reflecting the different facets of their identity. Representations of the concept of identity involve symbolic processes and cultural investments related to time and memory, territory and group membership (Moore & Brohy, 2013: 297). However, schools, as places of language learning, str…
Sexual Networks and Behavioral Characteristics of HIV-Positive Male Military Members, Female Sex Workers, and Male Civilians
Military members and female sex workers (FSWs) may be more likely to acquire or transmit HIV. Mapping HIV transmission across these high-risk populations and identifying behaviors associated with sexual network clustering are needed for effective HIV prevention approaches. A cross-sectional study recruited participants newly diagnosed with HIV among militaries, civilians, and FSWs in Zambia, Senegal, and Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Pa…
Sociolinguistique, dialectologie et dialectométrie
This article raises a question regarding the principles of a sociolinguistic approach to dialectology. Indeed, a dialectological study can have a genetic approach, an anthropological approach or a sociolinguistic approach as in this article by starting from the notion of dialectal variation which distinguishes a classical dialectology and an urban dialectology which refers more or less to what is called sociolinguistics today and whose aim is to …
Survival of eight LLIN brands 6, 12, 24 and 36 months after a mass distribution campaign in rural and urban settings in Senegal
Differences in survival among LLIN may be driven by brand, shape or environmental setting. In this study in Senegal, conical PermaNet® 2.0 were retained in households while rectangular PermaNet® 2.0 had lower retention, suggesting that net shape may play a role in retention and should be further investigated. Distribution of preferred LLIN shape, accompanied by good communication on care and repair, could lead to increased effective lifespan, and…
L'alimentation des Peuls du Sénégal
Cet article porte sur l'alimentation des populations peules du Sénégal, plus précisément sur deux groupes de femmes : l'un vivant dans la zone sylvo-pastorale du Ferlo (Nord Est du Sénégal) et l'autre issu du Ferlo et installé dans la capitale du pays, Dakar, depuis au moins dix ans. L'analyse porte sur les différences mais aussi les éléments communs dans l'alimentation de ces populations et sur la pluralité des influences mais aussi, des process…
Climate impacts on global agriculture emerge earlier in new generation of climate and crop models
Du schéma de la communication de Jakobson à celui de la communication hétérolingue
Communicating is sharing between two poles: the message production pole and the reception pole. By adding the other parameters of this connection, namely the context, the message, the code and the contact, Jakobson, an eminent linguist born in Russia and who laid the first groundwork of structuralism, established a communicational scheme with the language functions linked to each parameter. Even if Jakobson's diagram constitutes an essential basi…
Methodology to assess the changing risk of yield failure due to heat and drought stress under climate change
While the understanding of average impacts of climate change on crop yields is improving, few assessments have quantified expected impacts on yield distributions and the risk of yield failures. Here we present the relative distribution as a method to assess how the risk of yield failure due to heat and drought stress (measured in terms of return period between yields falling 15% below previous five year Olympic average yield) responds to changes …
Impacts of 1.5 versus 2.0 °C on cereal yields in the West African Sudan Savanna
To reduce the risks of climate change, governments agreed in the Paris Agreement to limit global temperature rise to less than 2.0 C above pre-industrial levels, with the ambition to keep warming to 1.5 C. Charting appropriate mitigation responses requires information on the costs of mitigating versus associated damages for the two levels of warming. In this assessment, a critical consideration is the impact on crop yields and yield variability i…
Large Body Size as a Socially Valued Factor Determining Excess Weight and Obesity in the Context of the Nutritional Transition in Senegal
Like most African countries, Senegal is experiencing a nutritional transition. Global drivers of sedentary behavior and high-calorie dietary intake, together with local anthropological drivers of large body size as a socially valued characteristic could be exposing the population to obesity. This study therefore set out to assess the impact of this sociocultural factor on the nutritional status of Senegalese adults. We set up 14 focus groups (n=8…
