Personal information

Biography

I did My PhD in France (University Paris-Saclay) and in Sweden (SLU) between 1998 and 2001 on woody respiration spatio-temporal assessment followed by a 2 years Post Doc at INRA in Clermont Ferrand (France) on the effect of grazing intensity on the GHG budgets of grasslands.

In 2003 I became an associated professor at Toulouse University III - Center for Spatial Studies of the BIOsphere (CESBIO) in France. I was PI of the Auradé and Lamasquère cropland flux site (eddycovariance technique) analysing the components of the C and GHG budgets in order to identify levers for climate mitigation (e.g. cover crops).

Since 2018 I’m an INRAE Senior scientist, still working at CESBIO and my work consists in comparing different strategies for climate mitigation in agriculture (mainly cropland) in order to prioritize them. For this, I analyse the biogeochemical (soil C storage, GHG emissions) and the biogeophysical (e.g. albedo effect) contributions to the net radiative forcing associated to changes in agricultural management. I’m currently developing approaches combining in-situ observations, remote sensing and crop modelling in order to map cropland C budgets and albedo effects at high resolution, but over large areas, based on Sentinel satellite data.

I have published more than 60 papers in peer review journals (approx 4250 citations, H index ≈ 35) and directed 6 PhDs.
