At TerrOïko, we firmly believe that a career is, above all, shaped by the people you meet and the passions you pursue.

And Christophe Plotard’s journey is a perfect example of this.

During his time at TerrOïko, Christophe served as Communications Manager, while also working with DarkSkyLab, our long-standing partner, as a Research and Web Projects Manager.

We are thrilled to announce that TerrOïko will be participating in the World Impact Summit on February 5 and 6 at Porte de la Villette (Paris).

Come visit us at STAND A11, located within the Ecolab – Greentech Innovation area.

This will be an opportunity to introduce you to MyNature, our solution that enables any landowner to assess the biodiversity challenges within their portfolio, prioritize sites for action, and identify the most impactful measures for biodiversity conservation.

 The year 2025 was a particularly busy one for TerrOïko. We conducted 46 studies, supported 30 regions across France, and collaborated with numerous stakeholders to place biodiversity at the heart of decision-making and projects. These initiatives reflect our commitment to turning scientific knowledge into concrete action.

Our work has encompassed a wide range of projects: 13 Black Grid projects, 16 Green and Blue Grid projects, 4 ERC strategies, as well as studies on 3 transportation infrastructure projects and 3 renewable energy projects. 

Virgile uses SimOïko as part of SPACEMOD, an ambitious research project funded by ADEME (IMPACTS 2023 program) and coordinated by the University of Burgundy Franche-Comté.

This project (2024–2028) aims to develop a spatially explicit tool for modeling the transfer and impact of chemical mixtures in food webs for the purpose of ecosystem risk assessment (ERA) and the remediation of polluted sites and soils (SSP) and, more generally, any type of site contaminated by chemicals.

After three years of work, our colleague Léa Pautrel defended her doctoral thesis in ecology at the University of Montpellier last week. She conducted her research at TerrOïko in partnership with the Center for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology (CEFE).

Want to watch or rewatch her defense? You can do so here  https://lnkd.in/dVAAb2XF.

Léa's research focused on the use of continuous-time hierarchical models for monitoring biodiversity with sensors. Here's a summary.

In reality, in most of our work, field data and the results of modeling or automated analysis are often closely combined.

There is a research project we are currently working on that is a perfect illustration of this.

Launched in 2024 and named Polymor-FENCE, it aims to develop tools and methods to analyze and anticipate the impacts of fences on animal species and their movements.

We will be present at the 2025 Biodiversity and Ecological Engineering Exhibition to share our commitments to biodiversity.

We will be presenting our innovative approaches to ecological engineering, serving local authorities, businesses, and natural space managers.

At TerrOïko since 2021 and a doctoral student in functional ecology at the University of Montpellier, Léa Pautrel has conducted her research at TerrOïko, in partnership with the Center for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology (CEFE) as part of a CIFRE thesis.
 

On November 17, Léa will present the results of three years of research and reflection on a central question: Can continuous-time hierarchical models improve methods for monitoring biodiversity using sensors?

Are you wondering about the relevance of ecological modelling techniques? You are quite right to do so.

The use of these tools is becoming increasingly widespread, not only in research, but also as a decision-making aid in the field for all those involved in land use planning and biodiversity conservation.

The problem is that in most cases, their reliability is never assessed. 

On 8 and 9 October 2025, Terroïko will be attending the PRODURABLE trade fair at the Palais des Congrès in Paris as a visitor to exchange ideas, find inspiration and showcase our innovations!

Jules Boileau (project manager) and Orel Hacman (product director) will represent our teams and present MyNature, our new ecological diagnostic tool.
