I am an agronomist, have a PhD in landscape ecology , and have significant experience of interdisciplinarity. As an expert in integrated modeling, my main research interests are spatio-temporal relationships between agricultural activites and landscape patterns, and their effects on ecological processes (water and nutrient fluxes, pollen transfer, soil organic matter). I focus on heterogeneous agricultural landscapes, especially hedgerow landscapes. My ambition is to produce knowledge that can be used to design strategies for both the preservation of natural resources and more sustainable management of cultivated areas, mobilizing levers of spatio-temporal organization of landscapes
