Research

Current research topic

My research interest is to understand and model at the catchment scale interactions between water resources and climatic and anthropogenic forcings, especially agriculture. I explore how multidisciplinary approaches, spanning hydrology, agronomy, geochemistry, remote sensing and social sciences, can help to design better management of water and nutrient cycles in agro-ecosystems.
My work relies primarily on long-term observations carried out within Critical Zone Observatories in France (AgrHys) and India (M-TROPICS).

Current projects
  • ATCHA : Accompanying The adaptation of irrigated agriculture to climate CHAnge (2017-2021)
  • CSIA : Transport and Transformation of Pesticides from an Indian agrosystem: Insights from Compound-Specific Isotope Analysis (2018-2023)

Consulting experience

  • Involved in research infrastructures: OZCAR-RI in France and eLTER-RI elsewhere in Europe
  • 2014-present: Associate Editor of Hydrological Sciences Journal (HSJ)
  • 2018-present: Co-chairman of the Indo-French Cell of Water Science CEFIRSE, IISc, Bangalore, India
