Introduction
PhD student currently working on the dynamics of essential and/or toxic trace elements in agroecosystems. This research project aims to improve knowledge on the impact of soil organic matter on the mobility and availability of trace elements in the soil-plant system by using powerful and innovative geochemical tracing tools: stable isotopes and rare earth elements

Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world. In addition to its herbicidal effect, glyphosate is a chelating agent that can form complexes with trace elements. Yet, agricultural soils can be contaminated with both organic and mineral substances, questioning the possible influence of glyphosate application on the trace element...
Transfer of trace elements, such as toxic metals, from soil to plant is a corner stone for risk assessment. Rare earth elements (REE) are frequently used as environmental tracers to understand biogeochemical processes in the soil–plant system. In this study, we combined trace element and REE measurements in the soil–plant continuum to evaluate the...
