SOMAQUA - Sources and transfers of Organic Matter in AQUAtic systems

In aquatic systems, organic matter, dissolved and particulate, impregnates quickly and durably, at small (hours, days, months) and large (years, decades ...) spatio-temporal scal

ECOFUNC - Functional ecology of coastal trophic and social-ecological networks

The team EcoFunc’s objectives are to establish a link between individuals’ functions (growth, reproduction, bleaching, toxicity, metabolism, diet, migration, etc), ecosystem’s fu

EMERGE - Environment, (epi)genoMEs, deteRminisms and ontoGEnesis

RECAP - REsilience of Coastal ecosystems and AnthroPization

PHYPAQ - Physiology of aquatic organisms exploited by fisheries and aquaculture

The scientific concerns of the PhyPAQ team focus on the physiology of aquatic organisms for the development of sustainable aquaculture and fisheries.

AMEX - Adaptations to Extreme Environments

Our group studies Deep sea chemosynthetic environments, such as hydrothermal vents, hydrocarbon seeps. Sunken wood or whale carcasses are also of interest to us.

BIOPAC - Biodiversity, Plasticity, Adaptation and Conservation

The Knowledge of the mechanisms that regulate the structure, the dynamics, the functioning and the future of the aquatic populations is essential for the development of models an
