    Guinea, Africa

    A combined agronomic and geographic approach has helped to explain forest agrosystem spatio-temporal dynamics in the forest regions of Guinea. The important expansion of cropping systems associating various perennial crops (coffee, kola, cocoa, fruit trees) and native spontaneous forest species – called “agroforests”- has been observed in 3 villages of the Kobela area. This spatial dynamic can be considered as the renewing of an ecosystem dominated in the past by forest.

    French Guiana

    Tropical rainforest currently covers more than 90% of French Guiana. Population growth, however, puts pressure on the land, resulting in increased deforestation, partly due to the need for greater agricultural production. Changes in land use are known to alter biogeochemical processes, including greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs).[br/]This study investigates the effects of the conversion of tropical forest to cultivation on soil n2o emissions. The study was carried out over a complete crop cycle at the experimental site combi (french guianese coast).
