Assessment of Radiation Risk Perception and Interest in Tritiated Water among Returnees to and Evacuees from Tomioka Town within 20 km of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant

In this study, we aimed to investigate radiation risk perception, mental health, and interest in tritiated water among evacuees from and returnees to Tomioka town, Japan, as well as to evaluate the intention to return (ITR) among evacuees living inside and outside Fukushima Prefecture. Of the 1728 respondents, 318 (18.4%) and 1203 (69.6%) participants reported living outside and inside Fukushima Prefecture, and 207 (12.0%) reported living in Tomioka. The ITR was not significantly different between those who lived inside and outside the prefecture among the evacuees. Similarly, there were no significant differences in radiation risk perception, mental health, and interest in tritiated water. However, the evacuees were independently associated with a motivation to learn about tritiated water (OR = 1.242, 95%Cl: 1.041–1.438, p = 0.016), reluctance to consume food from Tomioka (OR = 1.635, 95%Cl: 1.372–1.948, p < 0.001), and concern that adverse health effects would occur because of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident (OR = 1.279, 95%Cl: 1.055–1.550, p = 0.012) compared to returnees, according to logistic regression analysis. Interestingly, the returnees were found to have better mental health but lower life satisfaction than the evacuees. These findings suggest the importance of ongoing risk communication about radiation exposure and tritiated water among residents regardless of their place of residency

L’architecture privée à Montpellier : paysage et parcellaire urbain

Computer-assisted cartography appears today a relevant tool in the study of architectural issues in urban environment. Different figures allow to show relationship between architecture and urban background and town pattern.La cartographie assistée par ordinateur apparaît aujourd’hui comme un outil pertinent pour l’étude des faits architecturaux en milieu urbain. Les figures diverses permettent d’établir les relations entre ces faits et le tissu urbain, comme avec la forme de la ville.La cartogràfia sostenguda pel ordena-tor ven uèi una aisina apropriada per estudiar los fàches d’arquitectura dins lo mitan urban. Los imatges variats permeton de pausar los ligams d’aqueles fàches amb lo teissut urban, tant coma amb la forma de la vila.Lochard T.

Décrire et exploiter la dimension territoriale et historique d’un patrimoine architectural et urbain

The aim of the article is to clarify the conception and the implementation of the database for the description of urban areas and their evolution. In particular, it concerns the conception of computer models created to describe the history of urban and architectural facts. Several years ago, we worked on this theme in education and research context. For this study, the method evolved, based on the context of the “Observatoire Hommes-Milieux”, the “Bassin minier de Provence”. The new goal is to allow cartographic representations, which enable the researcher to follow in a heuristic manner, taking into consideration the constraints imposed by the historical research in the field of urban and architectural heritage

L’architecture privée à Perpignan, 1900-1950 : de l’esthétique « Beaux-Arts » au pittoresque moderne

During the first half of the twentieth century, private building developed at Perpignan into an architectural ensemble which is unique in the Languedoc-Rousillon region. This ensemble spreads out in the former suburbs, in particular around the railway station, and in new neighbourhoods which emerged after the demolition of the city’s fortifications. This development brought a profound renewal to Perpignan’s urban landscape. Influenced by various stylistic trends, from regionalism to the modern movement, the leading architects of the period (Edouard Mas-Chancel, Raoul Castan, Férid Muchir, Alfred Joffre, etc.) created a series of buildings of astonishing variety in their composition and of considerable quality in their detailing. Beyond the diversity of references, however, shared motifs, reciprocal influences and architectural syncretism give the Perpignan neighbourhoods of this period a unified quality which is a powerful contribution to the city’s « special character »
