Laboratoire d’Ecologie Alpine

The Alpine Ecology Laboratory (LECA) is a Joint Research Unit of the CNRS, the Grenoble Alpes University (UGA) and
the Savoie Mont Blanc University (USMB), member of the Observatoire des Sciences de l’Univers de Grenoble (OSUG).

LECA’s research aims to understand the mechanisms driving the origin of biodiversity,
the spatio-temporal dynamics of biodiversity and the associated functions,
and predicting their response to a variety of drivers (climate change, pollution, land use change, invasive species, … ),
with a special focus on alpine ecosystems.
