Research interests and expertise

My ecology research projects are mainly in the field of population dynamics. Based on long-term monitoring studies (see the Tour du Valat’s long-term bird monitoring projects), bird censuses and the marking of individual birds, I am seeking to understand the factors that explain population fluctuations of these species. The main birds concerned by my research are ducks, Glossy Ibis, Eurasian Spoonbill, Collared Pratincole and pelicans.

I am also Chair of the AEWA Eurasian Spoonbill International Expert Group.

Education

  • Postdoc on the effect of climate change on the population dynamics of tropical Pacific marine birds, UNAM, Mexico, 2013-2015
  • PhD The consequences of releasing Mallard on hunting (jointly supervised by the National Office for Hunting and Wildlife, the Tour du Valat, and the Centre of Functional Ecology and Evolution CEFE/CNRS), 2008-2011
  • MSc Biology, UNAM, Mexico, 2004-2007
  • Bioscience Engineering, INSA, Lyon (France), 1999-2004
