Key research topics and activities
- Human impact on freshwater ecosystems
Multiple relevant scales, from reach to catchment, and multiple stressors (including land-use items, hydromorphological processes and alterations, substance transfers)
Responses of fish and invertebrates communities (taxonomic and traits diversity, stable isotopes approaches, links to ecotoxicology)
- Bayesian hierarchical modeling
Bayesian inference in a hierarchical framework
Probabilistic risk approach, Bayesian Belief Networks
Joint Species Distribution Models
- Development of tools and methods to help diagnostic and decision in the WFD and restoration contexts
