Laboratoire ECOBIO

Écosystèmes, biodiversité, évolution (ECOBIO)

RENNES CEDEX

The ECOBIO laboratory covers all areas of ecology: evolutionary ecology, behavioural ecology, community ecology, functional ecology and landscape ecology. It analyses the dynamics of biodiversity and the functioning of continental ecosystems in the face of global changes (climate, land use) with a view to sustainable development (sober management of natural resources, conservation).

Biodiversity "is life". There is an extremely rich diversity of living things which involves all environments and latitudes but remains relatively unknown. Biodiversity is essential for humans because it provides them with essential services (resources, ecological services, chemical and therapeutic innovations, feedback effect on changes, etc.). The main challenge for researchers is to understand the organization and dynamics of biodiversity and its role in how ecosystems function.

CNRS Images,

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
