The monitoring of the water cycle at the Earth surface which tightly interacts with the climate change processes as well as a number of practical applications (agriculture, soil and water quality assessment, irrigation and water resource management, etc...) requires surface temperature measurements at local scale. Such is the goal of the Indian-Fre...
Aims: Regeneration in skeletal muscle relies on regulated myoblast migration and differentiation, in which the transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NFAT5) participates. Impaired muscle regeneration and chronic inflammation are prevalent in myositis. Little is known about the impact of inflammation on NFAT5 localization and ex...
PurposeLife cycle assessment (LCA) has been used to assess freshwater-related impacts according to a new water footprint framework formalized in the ISO 14046 standard. To date, no consensus-based approach exists for applying this standard and results are not always comparable when different scarcity or stress indicators are used for characterizati...
Brassica napus est une des cultures oléagineuse majeure dans le monde. En raison de sa faible efficacité d’utilisation de l’azote (NUE) comparée aux autres grandes cultures, la gestion de cette ressource présente un objectif écologique et économique majeur pour cette culture. La remobilization des nutriments des organes sources vers les organes pui...
Crop modelling can help at the different steps of genotype design and assessment: from the breeding process, by designing ideotypes in relation to target environments to the cropping process, by evaluating released cultivars on a wider range of environments. We developed a model for the sunflower crop where complex traits (yield and oil content) ar...

A detailed dynamic 3D architecture model coupled with a soil water balance model is used to explore the pertinence of 2D approximations of the row structure and describe the light regime and canopy photosynthesis in vineyard. The fraction of intercepted light (fIPAR), the fraction of illuminated leaf area (fILA) and the distribution of light intens...
