Densuisse Part 3 - La métropole Alpino-Lémanique

2017
Talks

Abstract

L'EPFL participe avec un atetier de projet mené par le Lab-U, sous la direction de la professeure Paola Viganò. La question de la densité sera posée à l'échelle du territoire alpin suisse dans lequel la densification croise la tradition de l'habitat dispersé, un sujet qui intéresse l'ensemble du pays. De ce point de vue, les cycles de pensée urbaine et anti-urbaine ont produit une attitude et des dispositifs spécifiques dont l'exploration permet de produire une réflexion ouverte et non dogmatique sur la densification urbaine.

Habitat

In ecology, habitat refers to the array of resources, physical and biotic factors that are present in an area, such as to support the survival and reproduction of a particular species. A species habitat can be seen as the physical manifestation of its ecological niche. Thus "habitat" is a species-specific term, fundamentally different from concepts such as environment or vegetation assemblages, for which the term "habitat-type" is more appropriate. The physical factors may include (for example): soil, moisture, range of temperature, and light intensity.

Biological dispersal

Biological dispersal refers to both the movement of individuals (animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, etc.) from their birth site to their breeding site ('natal dispersal'), as well as the movement from one breeding site to another ('breeding dispersal'). Dispersal is also used to describe the movement of propagules such as seeds and spores. Technically, dispersal is defined as any movement that has the potential to lead to gene flow.

Patch dynamics

Patch dynamics is an ecological perspective that the structure, function, and dynamics of ecological systems can be understood through studying their interactive patches. Patch dynamics, as a term, may also refer to the spatiotemporal changes within and among patches that make up a landscape. Patch dynamics is ubiquitous in terrestrial and aquatic systems across organizational levels and spatial scales.
