From the author: Cet article vise premierement a analyser la dynamique spatiale (1981-2001) des marches locaux de l'emploi a une echelle infra-regionale (champ metropolitain de Quebec), en mettant particulierement l'accent sur les interactions entre la region metropolitaine et son arriere-pays et, deuxiemement, a mieux comprendre les determinants de cette evolution. Des analyses centrographiques permettent, dans un premier temps, de caracteriser l'evolution de la configuration spatiale des differents bassins de main-d'oeuvre (deplacement de leur centre de gravite, evolution de leur forme, des indices de dispersion et des axes de repartition preferentielle de leur main-d'oeuvre). Entre 1981 et 2001, presque tous les poles d'emploi connaissent un accroissement de la distance-moyenne associee a leur aire de recrutement, particulierement les poles perimetropolitains qui recrutent une proportion grandissante de leur main-d'oeuvre au sein de l'aire metropolitaine, ou ils peuvent trouver une main d'oeuvre plus qualifiee et diversifiee, et ce, au point de generer un veritable processus de reverse-commuting. Outre la distance par rapport au centre metropolitain, un modele de regression multiple montre que des facteurs comme la specialisation manufacturiere et la croissance de l'emploi des poles jouent egalement un role determinant dans la dynamique spatiale des marches locaux de l'emploi au sein du champ metropolitain de Quebec.

From the author: On a tombe sur des formes d'erosion pendant une recherche sur le terrain, dans une region au Canada anciennement couverte d'un relief glaciaire, et qui se trouve parmis la region de Labrador-Ungava; l'ancien territoire de la plaque glaciale des Laurentides. Dans la zone de recherche, le granite et le granite-gneissique montrent des caracteristiques de l'erosion sur le surface, comme des depression crees par l'erosion et par l'erosion profonde, comme un front d'erosion expose avec la saprolite caillouteuse et les pierres du noyau. La plupart des observations s'etaient faites au long du cote du reservoir Caniapiscau, ou, depuis la construction d'un barrage hydro-electrique, l'abrasion des vagues s'est mene a la decouverte recente du soubassement dans des regions etendues. Les roches detritiques de la saprolite appuient sur l'importance des processus de l'erosion en taillant le relief du soubassement dans cette region, et, avec les autres formes d'erosion, ils indiquent leurs limites d'erosion. On discute les formes d'erosion dans le contexte de l'erosion glaciale et des mecanismes preservatifs.

From the author: Cette recherche porte sur la variation de l'incidence du cancer au Quebec chez les personnes des deux sexes agees de 35 a 69 ans, pour la periode allant de 1989 a 1993. Les donnees ont ete analysees en distinguant l'ile de Montreal (region sociosanitaire 06) du reste du Quebec (en excluant les regions du Nunavik et de la Baie James). Selon l'indice du taux relatif hommes/femmes et le ratio des taux standardises selon le sexe, les resultats indiquent que les tendances de l'incidence sont similaires quel que soit le territoire etudie: le risque du cancer pour les sieges non specifiquement masculins ou feminins est plus eleve pour les hommes que pour les femmes (exces allant de 5 ou 20% d 240% selon la region d'etude). Sur l'ile de Montreal cependant, ce risque excessif varie selon le cycle de la vie et le type de cancer. Les auteurs presentent quelques hypotheses pouvant expliquer les differences de l'incidence du cancer entre les sexes.
