Frédi is a research scientist at CIRAD (AIDA unit), specializing in agronomy, climate change adaptation & mitigation in tropical ecosystems. His research explores the biogeophysical effects (e.g., albedo, surface infrared radiation, evapotranspiration, etc.) of agricultural practices and their implications for climate change adaptation and mitigation. His approach integrates field experiments with multi-scale modeling to better understand and predict ecosystem responses. His previous works focused on modeling the energy budget and the water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles in tropical ecosystems (in West-Africa and South-East Asia) with an emphasis on greenhouse gas emissions, climate change, productivity, and food security.
