I am a scientist with the French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development (IRD).
I specialise in isotope hydrology and aquatic carbon cycling in tropical environments, with a focus on greenhouse gas dynamics. My research aims to understand how water and associated solutes move through landscapes – from soils and aquifers to streams, rivers and wetlands – and how these pathways regulate carbon processing and the production and emission of greenhouse gases. Using environmental tracers and biogeochemical approaches, I investigate surface–groundwater interactions and quantify the transport, transformation and emission of carbon across the critical zone.
Having worked in Australia for 14 years, I maintain strong links with Australian colleagues and institutions. I am currently an adjunct senior research fellow at Charles Darwin University and James Cook University.
