Corentin Abgrall

As a soil and functional ecologist, my interest is focused on the link between community-level traits of plants, soil organisms and how they reflect soil processes and ecosystem services. My research currently aims at understanding how anthropogenic nitrogen desposition affects boreal forest regeneration and the role of the belowground interactions between roots, soil microorganisms and the soil fauna in this process.
