Quatrième congrès international du groupement d’intérêt scientifique « Histoire et sciences de la mer »

Summary
Born in the 1970s, the concept of global change refers to the study of short-, medium- and long-term interactions between the climate, the biosphere, the ocean, the land surface and, of course, human activities. As a systemic conceptual framework, global change invites us to consider the Earth as a whole, so that it allows for the study of all scales, authorizes the study of sub-systems and does not consider human activities as a forcing external to the system but as an agent in its own right. Within the framework of its 4th congress, the SIG-CNRS of History & Sciences of the Sea proposes to study the concept of global change applied to the different scales of maritime spaces as well as to short, medium and long term interaction.

Presentation
Born in the 1970s (Lovelock & Margulies: 1974; Lovelock: 1999), the concept of global change refers to the study of short-, medium- and long-term interactions between the climate, the biosphere, the ocean, the land surface and, of course, human activities (Goudie, 2017). As a systemic conceptual framework, global change invites us to consider the Earth as a whole, so that it allows for the study of all scales, authorizes the study of sub-systems and does not consider human activities as a forcing external to the system but as an agent in its own right. Within the framework of its 4th congress, the SIG-CNRS of History & Sciences of the Sea proposes to study the concept of global change applied to the different scales of maritime spaces as well as to short, medium and long term interactions around five structuring themes:
Programme
Wednesday 2022, 18th
9 h 30 – 10 h : Welcome words
Session 1 : The temporality of maritime flows and exchanges
Depending on nautical conditions (ice jams, break-up, wind regimes, currents, silting, etc.), navigation technics and finally the evolution of production and exchange systems, the study of maritime flows and exchanges provides a first entry point to analyze global changes in maritime perspectives. Various evolutions, such as the geography of maritime routes, the flow of exchanged goods and trade infrastructures, will be examined through the prism of environmental, climatic or meteorological changes.

Session 2 : Governance, adaptations, acceptability
Global changes have positive or negative effects for societies that wonder about their causes, experience their consequences and transform their questions and fears into political demands. The question of how authorities should accompany global changes raises a series of challenges such as the scientific understanding of change, the evaluation of the capacity to act on its causes, the implementation of plans to accompany crises and the resulting necessary adaptations.

Session 3 : Ports, crises & epidemics
The question of microbial shocks, the contact of living organisms (humans, animals) with microorganisms that travel over long distances, is another effect of the progressive globalization of humanity, which was made possible by the development of maritime activities. The role played by ports in the development of epidemics or epizootics offers an original approach to the theme of global changes in relation to maritime spaces.

Session 4 : Variability, dynamics of temporalities & resources
The seas and oceans constitute food, mineral and energy reserves. These reserves have been and remain known, exploited, managed or preserved according to unequal scientific, technical and human conditions. At all times, the issue of the level of reserves and available stocks raises questions about both human activities (impact, sustainability, durability) and the dynamics of environmental, climatic or meteorological change.

Session 5 : Maritime activities & species transfers
The historical development of maritime activities mirrors the progressive globalization of humanity. The linking of maritime spaces led to the discovery of varieties, or even unknown species, by coastal societies. The dynamics of species transfer may have been the subject of organized or concerted actions, but they also very often took the form of accidental transport and uncontrolled acclimatization.
