The late summer 2016 in Puéchabon will be remembered as exceptional for breaking two historical records in the data series of the experimental site. The most intense tree water stress ever measured at the site and the most intense rainfall event ever recorded happened both within one week. The predawn leaf water potential of Quercus …

From Dr Lisa Wingate UMR 1391 IPSA INRA Bordeaux France :Our team here in Bordeaux have recently constructed a laboratory to conduct high-resolution gas exchange measurements of CO2 isotopologue concentrations (13CO2 and CO18O) alongside COS concentrations from soil chambers. By measuring the gas exchange of different soils under controlled climatic conditions, we hope to develop a …

Can drinking tea help us understand climate change ? Yes. Teabags can provide vital information on the global carbon cycle. And consumers worldwide can improve climate modelling without much effort or instrumentation. Multinational tea distributors communicate with consumers at a scale not attainable by scientists. That is why we want tea consumers to become our researchers …
Une visite du site expérimental a été réalisée à l’occasion des Journées Caqsis (Xavier Morin) se déroulant à Montpellier le 7 avril 2016
A l’occasion de la journée mondiale de la forêt, plus de cinquante personnes, propriétaires forestiers et gestionnaires en forêt méditerranéenne ont visité le site expérimental de Puechabon le vendredi 25 mars dans le cadre d’une réunion organisée par le CNPF du Languedoc-Roussillon. L’essentiel de la visite a porté sur les effets à moyen et long …
