DOMAINES DE COMPETENCE
-
Systèmes couplés géonaturels et anthropisés / Coupled geonatural and anthropized systems
- Partage de l’eau entre usagers en période de sécheresse ou en milieu aride / Water sharing between users during drought or in arid environments
- Approche interdisciplinaire (agro-hydrologie, « socio-hydrologie »), multi-échelles (exploitation, périmètre irrigué, bassin) et multi-méthodes (terrain, diagnostic agraire, modélisation, géopolitique) / Interdisciplinary approach (agro-hydrology, "socio-hydrology"), multi-scale (farm, irrigated perimeter, river basin) and multi-method (field, agrarian diagnosis, modeling, geopolitics)
B. Richard is specialized in the study of coupled geonatural and anthropized systems. His research work focuses on a better understanding of water-human interactions under strong hydrological constraints (drought periods, arid environments). After working as a consultant for UNEP/Plan Bleu and then for IWMI (AfroMaison project) on various African case studies (Uganda, South Africa), he worked with IRD in Morocco where he coordinated the agro-hydro-meteorological observatory of the Tensift basin. His PhD thesis, carried out jointly within the G-eau and RiverLy units of INRAE, used field methods (agrarian diagnosis, interviews) and modelling (coupling between biophysical and agent models) to represent water-plant-irrigation interactions/retroactions at fine spatio-temporal scales within a typical river basin of South-East France (Buëch). He works in the framework of the RADHY-Buëch project (Integrated Representation of Individual Adaptations and Hydrological Dynamics in the Buëch basin) within the SocioHydro team, which aims at observing water/society relationships and developing a tripartite dialogue between researchers from "socio" disciplines, researchers from "hydro" disciplines and water stakeholders. He is also assigned to the "Watershed Hydrology" team of the RiverLy unit (INRAE Lyon) which develops distributed hydrological modeling tools for the quantification of water resources and their future. He is also interested in water-related conflicts in large transboundary river basins (Jordan, Danube) and in the unifying role of of environmental hydro-diplomacy to prevent water conflicts.
