The Damier de Godart butterfly: a species in decline

Remember! At the end of December, we announced the winners of our call for projects using our SimOïko software. Today, we are introducing one of the winners: the Groupe Ornithologique du Roussillon, represented by Aurélien Gaunet, who is conducting a study on the Damier de Godart butterfly (Euphydryas desfontainii).

TerrOïko is heading in the right direction thanks to its SimOïko software.

 were already convinced, but a recent article reinforces the idea that we are heading in the right direction with SimOïko, our biodiversity simulation software.

Published by North American researchers, the article (*) provides an overview of the progress and scientific challenges in ecological connectivity modeling.

It focuses in particular on the issue of biological realism and how to model species movement.

You know what? These are exactly the topics at the heart of SimOïko’s functionality.

Ecological modeling can also help combat the spread of epidemics

This is the key finding of a scientific study in which our colleague Marie Soret participated, and whose results have just been published in the journal PLOS One (*).

Have you heard of African swine fever? It is considered one of the most devastating diseases for domestic pig and wild boar populations.

Since 2022, the virus has been spreading in northern Italy, particularly among wild boar populations, posing a serious threat to pig farms.
