Towards a new understanding of carbon processing in freshwaters: methane emission hot spots and carbon burial (HYDROCARB)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

...ses regulating it, is insufficient. Here I propose a research program on tropical reservoirs in Brazil that takes advantage of recent developments in both concepts and methodologies to provide unique evaluations of GHG emission and OC burial in tropical reservoirs. In particular, I will test the following hypotheses: 1) Current estimates of reservoir CH4 emission are at least one order of magnitud ...

Genomic of adaptation in selfing polyploid species: the case of Capsella bursa-pastoris (SELFADAPT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

The main goal of this IEF proposal is to allow the fellow to acquire all the competencies to develop, carry out, and lead his own research group in plant population genomics integrating functional approaches, with a special emphasis on the use of next generation sequencing (NGS) data. The fellow will complement his skills in theoretical population genetics and evolutionary genomics by acquiring ne ...

Linked analysis of viral and bacterial communities for better understanding of microbial biogeography and ecosystem functioning (VIRIOBACLINK)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Jul 25, 2016,

...al lakes’ carbon flux. The goal will be achieved by analyzing the viral and prokaryotic diversity of subtropical and boreal lakes; measuring the viral shunt’s effect by chemostat experiments; and evaluating it in light of the viral and prokaryotic diversity and distribution results.

Factors regulating the composition of aquatic bacterial communities at the local scale (METACOMBA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: May 23, 2012,

"One key question in ecological research is which factors regulate community composition and diversity at various temporal and spatial scales. Since bacteria are key drivers of ecosystem function, it is of particular importance to focus on mechanisms regulating their community structure to be able to make predictions about the effects of environmental changes on biogeochemical cycling. In the prop ...
