© Source : https://www.serreponcon-tourisme.com/ Abstract : Since the beginning of the 2000s, water allocation policies became central in Europe and France to reach Water Framework Directive goals. Improvements in irrigation efficiency is one of the main policy measure aiming to save billions of cubic meters at the…
The adoption of innovations by farmers is a relatively old research topic but remains relevant, especially in Africa. African farmers adopt relatively few of the innovations proposed by research. Economists have focused their attention mainly on the influence of household characteristics such as household head age, household size or access…
The objective of this thesis is to rely on dissolved gases and in particular the Excess Air - EA calculated from neon-argon-nitrogen gases, to develop new tracers informing about the conditions and modalities of aquifer recharge and more particularly, for karstic systems. EA could give informations about the importance of…

Extreme climatic events are more important, an intensification of floods and associated damages is thus very likely in the coming decades. To adapt to such phenomena, it is necessary to be able to understand, model and predict them in a variety of catchments. The contribution of groundwater to flood events…

Agricultural plains with prominent irrigation infrastructure are important for the regional and national economies in the Maghreb region. However, these territories and farmers are vulnerable to environmental and climatic hazards, linked to an "unsustainable" use of natural resources (conditions and means of access to water, soil degradation). It is worthy…

Permanent Mare of Tombo, ©Photo : S. Bachir, IRD In SW Niger, close to Niamey, a detailed hydrological survey has been developed for the last 25 years over 10 000 km2 by the international experiments Hapex Sahel and AMMA. Quality and consistency of these long-term observations allowed assessing the…
Abstract : The mutual influences between human activities and natural resources are at the heart of societal debates. The challenges of water management depend on these interdependences differently according to the local situation. In this context, the hydrology research community is investigating the relevance of its models to represent human…
After a trend of decentralisation of large irrigation schemes management, based on surface water, and of an increasing individual and private use of groundwater use in Turkey, there is a current redeployment of the state in irrigation development, through the planning programme “1000 small-dams in 1000 days” over the country.…
This thesis aims to understand what are the effects of the share of information concerning the agents behavior (theirs extraction) on these latter. We want to compare different methods of providing and sharing information and analyze their effects on the extraction. Key words: Information-sharing, Experimental Economics
Calibration of a conceptual hydrological and distributed model is challenging due to a number of reasons, which include fundamental (model adequacy, identifiability) and algorithmic (e.g.local-search versus global-search) issues.

Drip irrigation is considered the best technique to save water in agriculture. However clogging of drippers is the main cause of loss of water efficiency, especially for small farmers involved in a modernization process. The thesis will be based on an experimental characterization of the biofilm development and microbial activities…
A participatory approach was conducted from 2012 to 2016 with a group of partner farmers organised in Communities of Practice (CoP) in the Office of Niger (ON) zone in Mali.
For thirty years, the French water and sewerage services have been influenced by different managerial models: public service principles, performance indicators (with ambivalence between the influence of New Public Management and of seek for more control), quality management and standardization (ISO 9000, 14000), corporate social responsibility, sustainability. Rather than analysing…
