Marie-Christine Gromaire is a top grade researcher at École Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées (France), within Leesu laboratory. She develops pluridisciplinary research on the sources, nature and management of urban stormwater contaminants, mainly developed as part of OPUR Observatory of Urban Hydrology in Paris. Over the last years, she focused on hydrological and physico-chemical processes within runoff source control measures, the resilience of such facilities, as well as the modelling of their large-scale deployment. She led the Roulépur project (2015-2020, French national call) and is strongly involved in the LifeAdsorb project (2018 – 2023, LIFE17 ENV/FR/000398), on innovative solutions for at source control of micropollutants loads conveyed in road and carpark runoff.
