We provide two proofs that the conjecture of Artin-Tate for a fibered surface
is equivalent to the conjecture of Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer for the Jacobian of
the generic fibre. As a byproduct, we obtain a new proof of a theorem of
Geisser relating the orders of the Brauer group and the Tate-Shafarevich group.
