Understanding the dynamics of environmental systems requires the conjunction of several scientific fields interacting in interdisciplinarity, in particular Natural Sciences, Human Sciences, Geomatic Sciences, etc. These sciences can be grouped into six main disciplinary fields, namely:
Agroecology, Anthropology, Biology, Botany, Ecology, Ecophysiology, Entomology, Medicine, Ornithology, Pharmacology, Physiology, Systematics, Zoology, Chemistry ...
Psychology, Sociology, Anthropology, Education Science, Demography, Geography, Communication ...
Climatology, Physical Geography, Geology, Geophysics, Hydrogeology, Hydrology ...
Geo-informatics: Remote sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS), GPS, Drone with multispectral sensor, Cartography, Photogrammetry, Earth observation ...
Environmental law, Environmental economics and all other sciences relating to law, legislation, economic interactions between societies and the environment ...
English, Modern Languages, German ...
Each researcher, expert, professional ... must assert himself as a citizen concerned about biodiversity.
Our survival depends on that of Biodiversity and the Ecosystems with which we interact.
