Les 42 Parcelles / A film directed by Thomas Silva & Amicie Delahaie as part of the PARISCIENCE Festival of Science Documentaries – winner of the 2024 SYMBIOSE Prize for the best short film made in 48 hours. This film showcases the longest-running bare fallow experiment, which, amongst other things, enables the measurement of carbon decline dynamics in soils and enhances our understanding of how soils evolve under the influence of fertilisers.

OSUG / FLASH  I Algae in our watercourses: the greener, the better? Julien Némery answers the question!

What is eutrophication? Julien Némery is a researcher at Grenoble INP’s Institute of Environmental Geosciences, one of the laboratories within the OSUG federation. His research focuses in particular on the impact of anthropogenic discharges on major biogeochemical cycles and the quality of aquatic environments, and he answers this question in under two minutes! 

ADEME / Carbon sequestration in forest soils: what are the challenges? / Pierre Barré

Pierre Barré is a Research Director at the CNRS and, more specifically, a biogeochemist specialising in soils. In this capacity, he discusses how we can assess carbon stocks in soils, their significance in relation to climate issues, and presents the ROCOCO project (Making soil carbon dynamics models predictive in French forests).

Soils in the spotlight: Julien Fouché delves into the subject! / This virtual field session took place during the 2021 Soil Study Days.
