Abstract

The working plan has two parts. In the first, the visiting professor will work directly with the group of students and researchers using the multiscale integrated models of ecosystems services in their research works. As it is a new model, developed by the visiting professor, not yet fully documented, there are many questions to deal with. The goal of this joint work is to create the conditions for a full use of MIMES in their research; and also, to contribute to improve it and provide it with a better documentation. (AU)
