Research

My work focuses on the design and development of agro-hydrological models at watershed level. These models are used to validate knowledge hypotheses and to evaluate change scenarios (agricultural practices or systems, landscape, climate) in order to contribute to better preservation of water quality and adaptation of agricultural activities and landscapes.

Past projects

Spatially distributed modeling of water and nitrogen transfers in agricultural catchment (Projets ANR Acassya, Escapade ; Projet Bagages)

Coupling nutrient fluxes at the land-sea interface (Projet DIETE, Agence de l’eau/ Ifremer).

Current projects

Conceptual carbon-nitrogen modeling of agricultural watersheds, coll. TU Delft.

Analysis of variability and spatial structuring of water and chemical element transfer times in catchment (Projet DERIDE, Pari Scientifique AQUA, 2023-2025)
