Chemical effects on ecological interactions within a model-experiment loop by Lamonica, Dominique, Charles, Sandrine, Clément, Bernard, Lopes, Christelle

“…Then, we get back from modelling to experimentation in order to identify which of the collected data have really been necessary and sufficient to estimate model parameters in order to propose a more efficient experimental design for further investigations. We illustrated our approach using a 2-L laboratory microcosm involving three species (the duckweed Lemna minor, the microalgae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata and the daphnids Daphnia magna) exposed to cadmium contamination. …”
