Abstract: We prove some general results about the relation between the 1-cocycles of an arbitrary Lie algebroid $A$ over $M$ and the leaves of the Lie algebroid foliation on $M$ associated with $A$. Using these results, we show that a ${calE}^1(M)$-Dirac structure $L$ induces on every leaf $F$ of its characteristic foliation a ${calE}^1(F)$-Dirac structure $L_F$, which comes from a precontact structure or from a locally conformal presymplectic structure on $F$. In addition, we prove that a Dirac structure $ildeL$ on $MimesR$ can be obtained from $L$ and we discuss the relation between the leaves of the characteristic foliations of $L$ and $ildeL$.
