Food-web structure in relation to environmental gradients and predator-prey ratios in tank-bromeliad ecosystems [PDF]
Little is known of how linkage patterns between species change along environmental gradients. The small, spatially discrete food webs inhabiting tank-bromeliads provide an excellent opportunity to analyse patterns of community diversity and food-web ...

Fluvial transport of suspended sediment and organic carbon during flood events in a large agricultural catchment in southwest France. [PDF]
Water draining from a large agricultural catchment of 1 110 km2 in southwest France was sampled over an 18-month period to determine the temporal variability in suspended sediment (SS) and dissolved (DOC) and particulate organic carbon (POC) transport ...

Long term nitrogen budget modelling in a small agricultural watershed: hydrological control assessment of nitrogen losses with semi-distributed (SWAT) and distributed (TNT2) models [PDF]
Nitrogen exports in catchments are known to be greatly variable because nitrogen cycle in watershed is controlled by different factors such as landuse, farm management practices, climate, soil type and hydrological setting.

Ecologie des systèmes alimentaires : Définition
L’écologie des systèmes alimentaires (SA) désigne une approche englobant l’agroécologie et la manière de se nourrir, de façon à prendre en compte les interdépendances entre l’environnement, l’alimentation et les filières. Fondée sur des approches holistiques, de type « one-health », cette approche interdisciplinaire en cours de construction permet d ...
