Adaptation of Fragmented Freshwater species Assemblages In Rapidly-changing environmentS – AFFAIRS
Human activities exert considerable pressure on ecosystems, through climate change, species introductions and anthropisation. Freshwater habitats, such as ponds and lakes, are particularly exposed. Freshwater faunas and floras react to change at several levels : (i) within species, selection favors
Adaptation of a bacterial multispecies biofilm community to perturbations: a pluridisciplinary approach – ACToP
The project aims at discovering the fundamental principles governing the adaptation of multi-species communities to disturbance on a 4-species (4S) bacterial biofilm of natural origin. In the nature, these systems play a crucial role in the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen and water. The di
Adaptation to hydrological regime shifts (flood and low-flow) in the Garonne-Gironde river-estuarine environment. Potentialities, testing and governance of Adaptation Options – ADAPT'EAU
Dans le contexte du changement climatique, la transformation des écosystèmes, les risques de recrudescence de crises environnementales et d’évènements extrêmes, les incertitudes concernant l’accès aux ressources naturelles fonctionnent comme des injonctions qui remettent en question les modes d’orga
Adaptation to variable pesticide doses – SilentAdapt
Two major issues remain stumbling blocks in our current understanding of the evolution of resistance and their management in presence of low doses. (1) The first concerns trade-offs among environments with zero, low or high doses of pesticides. In particular it is not clearly established whether ada
Adapting Landscape Mosaics of medIteranean Rainfed Agrosystems for a sustainable management of crop production, water and soil resources – ALMIRA
Mediterranean Rainfed Agrosystems (MRAs) provide various environmental and economic services of importance such as food production, preservation local knowhow, or downstream water delivery. These services have progression margins, thus making investments in such agrosystems highly profitable. In the
Adaptive Autonomous Production Platform for Environment – AdAP2E
The execution of works in natural environments is often dangerous and painful, and involves multiple skills. Moreover, human intervention to perform precision tasks is often required, especially to reduce the environmental impact (phytosanitary treatments, pollution, ...). The use of robots may be a
Adaptive Learning for Intelligent Crowdsourcing and Information Access – ALICIA
Data management is becoming increasingly user-centric, with users shifting from their role of pure information consumers to generators and evaluators of content of all sorts. Indeed, we are witnessing the emergence of a plethora of systems, especially on the Web, in which users contribute, access an
Adaptive Stereovision Systems in Man, Monkey and Machine – 3D3M
Numerous works have defended the hypothesis that the visual system of primates adapts its limited resources to primarily process the most frequent properties in the environment. This so-called «efficient« coding would make it possible to compactly represent the properties of the visual scene at the
Adaptive Supervision of Avatar/Object Links for the Web of Objects – ASAWoO
Our WoT architecture will be designed to verify the following properties: - Scalability: our infrastructure will be designed to be deployed from home environments to big organizations, as well as in outdoor environments. Thus, it must be flexible enough to scale over a large and variable number
Adaptive and maladaptive response to stress : a longitudinal brain imaging characterisation with molecular correlates – SIGMA
Affective disorders result from a gene-environment interaction with stress as a risk factor that may precipitate their emergence. Every individual experiences stressful life events. In some cases acute or repeated stress leads to affective disorders, but most people are resilient to such effects. Th
