Overview

I am mainly interested in the development of approaches derived from the field of automatic control to study ecosystems. More precisely, my research works focus on:

• the modeling and simulation of ecosystem dynamics,
• the development of digital tools for ecosystem management.

My field of application is the management of artificial ecosystems (such as bioprocesses), productive ecosystems (such as agro-ecosystems) and natural ecosystems (such as lakes).
