Funding
Collaborative research project funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR) (2022–2026).
Aims
The aim of ENLIVEN is to unravel the process of biological extinction by investigating the dynamics of European endemic mammal biodiversity and its response to environmental change in the context of climate change.
Consortium
The project is carried out in collaboration with ISEM (coordinated by M. Orliac), CR2P, PALEVOPRIM, and LEHNA. It involves around twenty researchers, fieldwork campaigns in the Quercy phosphorite deposits (France), and collection-based research visits to museums and institutions across Europe.
