The aim of this thesis was to document, at regional scale (SW France), the application of litter decomposition and associated metrics as a proxy of functional integrity of stream ecosystems. The Introduction exposed the underlying arguments, mainly relying on (1) the importance of this ecosystem process, which provides most carbon sources to the aquatic food web, and (2) the need to complement the structural metrics routinely used in biomonitoring schemes by a functional component. Chapter I dealt with the capacity, by using litter decomposition, to discriminate the effects of pesticides from other stressors in 12 agricultural streams selected along a contamination gradient. The decomposition rate was twice as low in the most contaminated s...
