Research fields

  • One of the authors, with B. de Foucault and P. Julve, of an original method for vegetation analysis at different levels of organization: the integrated synusial phytosociology.
  • Methodological research on sampling techniques and data analysis
  • Development of relational databases for phytosociological, ecological and pedological data.
  • Dynamic modelling of plant communities and ecosystems
  • Studied ecosystems: wooded pastures, temperate and tropical forests, flood plains, peat bogs.
