A new platform in AnaEE is coming soon: The Meta-Aquatron
- Details
In addition to the metatron, the Station of Theoretical and Experimental Ecology (SETE) at Moulis in Ariège will host the Meta-aquatron, an equivalent set for the study of aquatic metapopulations, currently under development for an investment of 4 million euros. This equipment will make it possible to study the effects of climate on the functioning of aquatic ecological systems, particularly in the context of global warming.

New publication in Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution : How to Integrate Experimental Research Approaches in Ecological and Environmental Studies: AnaEE France as an Example

Human activities have altered continental ecosystems worldwide and generated a major environmental crisis, prompting urgent societal questions on how to best produce goods
while at the same time securing sustainable ecological services and raising needs to better understand and predict biodiversity and ecosystems dynamics under global
changes. To tackle these questions, experimentation on ecosystems is necessary to improve our knowledge of processes and to propose scientifically sound management
strategies. Experimental platforms able to manipulate key factors of global change and including state of the art observation methodologies are available worldwide but how to
best integrate them has been rarely addressed. In this article, the authors discuss the case of the national research infrastructure AnaEE France dedicated to the study of continental
ecosystems and designed to congregate complementary experimental approaches in order to facilitate their access and use through a range of distributed and shared
services.
