Observatories
OMERE (Observatoire Méditerrannéen de l’Environnement Rural et de l’Eau) is co-driven by UMR LISAH (INRA, IRD, Montpellier SupAgro), Hydrosciences Montpellier (CNRS, IRD, Univ. Montpellier), INAT (Tunisia) and INRGREF (Tunisia). It is composed of two instrumented headwater catchments, Kamech in Tunisia and Roujan in in France . Among the global changes affecting cultivated and natural hydrosystems, […]

OHMCV (Cévennes-Vivarais Mediterranean Hydrometeorological Observatory, http://www.ohmcv.fr/), labeled as “Environment Research Observatory” in 2002 and “Observation National Service” by INSU since 2006, is led by the Institute for Geosciences and Environmental research (IGE) of Grenoble in collaboration with several laboratories of the CNRS and the Universities of Avignon, Clermont-Ferrand, Grenoble, Montpellier, Nice, and Toulouse as well […]
Observatories
The ORACLE / BVRE Orgeval Observatory (Representative and Experimental Watershed) is a system of observation and experimentation located 70 km east of Paris (France), since 1962. As such, i) it produces continuous and long-term observations, multi-variables and multi-scales, of a set of embedded sub-basins (1km² to 1800 km²) and ii) hosts a set of experimental […]
Observatories
Draix-Bleone observatory is located in the French South Alps, in the Bleone valley upstream of Digne. This observatory was set up by IRSTEA in 1983 to study hydrological and erosive processes in mountain badland terrain. This formation called “Terres Noires” is developed on Jurassic black marls that are very sensitive to erosion, scarcely vegetated and […]

Under the leadership of Marie-Claire Pierret, the OZCAR post-doc Sylvain Pasquet brought the CRITEX seismic equipment to the Strengbach CZO. Three 286-m long seismic profiles were acquired during the three days of this campaign. They will help characterizing the regolith thickness on the North and South facing slopes and in the bottom of the valley, […]
News
Sylvain Pasquet has been hired by OZCAR last February for a post-doc that should facilitate collaborations between the numerous OZCAR observatories and the equipment facility CRITEX. Sylvain comes back from a 2-year post-doc in the US where he worked, within the CZO program and in Yellowstone, on characterizing the architecture of the critical zone and […]
