Acknowledgments:
The authors express their gratitude to all the scientists who have
contributed to the research on the Ardières-Morcille basin, whatever
their place in the process, as well as to the farmers and water managers
who have, for so long, facilitated the deployment of experimental
devices on their territory. Cemagref, Irstea and INRAE are also
thanked for having placed their trust in researchers and supported the
observatory over time. Finally, this research would not have been
possible either without the scientific or financial support of the
Office Français de la Biodiversité, Zone Atelier du Bassin du Rhône, the
Rhône Méditerranée & Corse water agency, the AUvergne Rhône Alpes
Region, the National Research Agency, the French Ministries in charge of
agriculture and environment, and the opportunities they have offered
from successive national and regional programs.
