Area of expertise

Stream ecosystem functioning, river restoration, conservation of endangered species.

Research interests

My research is focused on the relationship between the structure and functioning of stream ecosystems, such as the role of channel complexity in nutrient retention, or the relationship between algal biomass and ecosystem metabolism. I have applied this perspective to study the effect of multiple human activities, from forestry to water abstraction or global climate change, on the functioning of stream ecosystems. I am also interested in river restoration projects and in management of riparian areas, as well as in the conservation of endangered species such as the Pyrenean desman.
