Global Forests: new multidisciplinary perspectives on forests

Sandrine Robert (Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (Paris - Aubervilliers, France), with consortium Project Time Machine, CNRS, IR* HumaNum and The Water Factory)

Water circulation is a determining factor in the organisation and resilience of the landscape in the long term. We will examine this through recent work carried out by the Time Machine project consortium, IR* CNRS and The Water Factory, such as an ancient meander of the Seine, whose shape is still visible in the urban fabric of Paris, or the landscapes of Pyrenean summer pastures structured by irrigation.
