Abstract In the 18th century BC, the creation of an unprecedented territorial state covering the whole of Upper Mesopotamia was a remarkable feat. It can be attributed to a particularly charismatic and energetic man, Samsi-Addu, alias Šamši-Adad I st …

Abstract Mari, the Bible and I had our earliest conjunction in the mid-60s, long before Biblical scholarship began exploring Achaemenid linkages. In those days, giants ruled the earth, among them Albright, Noth, and de Vaux on the biblical side; Dossin & …

Abstract The incompressibility constraint on ocean flows generates nonlocal effects, even in the case of uniform rotation and stratification. In particular, the geometry of ocean basins drastically alters wave propagation and energy transfer: internal and …

Image generated by artificial intelligence. Overview This conference will build on the course material by bringing together researchers who explore the microbial world at various scales: molecular, cellular, community, ecosystem, and planetary. Its goal …

Le recours de plus en plus fréquent à la gestion de crise pour gouverner des situations marquées par l’incertitude et la complexité conduisent souvent à une centralisation des décisions, parfois accompagnée d’une réduction des libertés publiques et d’un …

Abstract The decomposition of ocean dynamics into a superposition of waves is based on a linear approximation of the equations of fluid mechanics, which, in particular, neglects convective effects. For small-amplitude motions, these couplings can be …
