Isabelle Chuine

French ecologist and researcher From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isabelle Chuine

Isabelle Chuine (born 1973) is a French ecologist who is a French National Centre for Scientific Research Research Director at the Center for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology. Her research consider how plants respond to climate change, and the traits that allow certain species to adapt.

Early life and education

Chuine studied evolution and ecology at the University of Montpellier. She remained there for a doctorate in evolutionary biology, where she modelled the phrenology of temperate zone trees and studied how it impacted evolutionary biology.[1]

Research and career

Chiune joined the CNRS Délégation Languedoc-Roussillon. Chuine is a professor at the Center for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology.[2] Her research considers the development cycle of extratropical trees. She has developed process-based species distribution models for plants, which she uses to understand how certain trees.[citation needed]

Chuine developed a citizen science programme Observatoire Des Saisons, which collects information about nature observations from people of all ages.[3] The seasons observatory looks to raise public engagement about climate change and environmentalism, build datasets for scientific research and provide a mechanism for the public to understand the impact of climate change.[3]
