Consuming and consumed: Biotic interactions of African mistletoes across different trophic levels

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 1103-1119, July 2022., 2022
Mistletoes, as perennial hemiparasitic angiosperms that parasitize woody plants, are an important component of the African flora, yet little is known about the composition and function of the organismal communities associated with these plants in Africa.

Inter‐country differences in the cultural ecosystem services provided by cockles

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 71-87, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Coastal systems provide many cultural ecosystem services (CES) to humans. Fewer studies have focused solely on CES, while those comparing CES across countries are even rarer. In the case of shellfish, considerable ecosystem services focus has been placed on nutrient remediation, with relatively little on the cultural services provided, despite

Exploring farmers' agrobiodiversity management practices and knowledge in clove agroforests of Madagascar

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 914-928, August 2021., 2021
Abstract Interactions between farmers and agrobiodiversity are key drivers of agroecosystems sustainability and of the resilience of such systems to perturbations, but research into the human/nature interactions have overlooked some important aspects of agrobiodiversity management.

Risk Management and its Role in Enhancing Perceived Resilience Capacities of Farms and Farming Systems in Europe La gestion des risques et son rôle dans l'amélioration des capacités de résilience perçues des exploitations et des systèmes agricoles en Europe Die Rolle des Risikomanagements bei der Verbesserung der wahrgenommenen Resilienzkapazitäten von Betrieben und landwirtschaftlichen Systemen in Europa

open access: yesEuroChoices, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 45-53, August 2020., 2020
Summary In facing future challenges, risk management (RM) is essential for European farming systems (FS). This article synthesises lessons learned on RM based on a farm survey, interviews with farmers, and focus groups involving a range of FS actors. In contrast to previous literature, we broaden the definition of RM to include strategies that target ...

A critical analysis of the potential for EU Common Agricultural Policy measures to support wild pollinators on farmland

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 681-694, April 2020., 2020
To conserve pollinators and help protect pollination services, our expert elicitation highlights the need to create a variety of interconnected, well‐managed habitats that complement each other in the resources they offer. To achieve this the Common Agricultural Policy post‐2020 should take a holistic view to implementation that integrates the ...

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) relating to an analysis of the health risks associated with exposure to caterpillars with stinging hairs and the development of management recommendations

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Several species of Lepidoptera with caterpillars bearing urticating hairs are increasing their range in metropolitan France from year to year, such as the pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa Denis et Schiffermüller 1775) whose presence was historically limited to the south of France, and which is gradually being observed in the north ...

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.
