Central question: how can food web and socio-ecological models support decision-making for estuarine, coastal and marine spatial management?
Modeling and characterizing the operating properties of food webs in coastal environments:
- comparison of operating properties between coastal ecosystems in relation to their resilience
- research into ecosystem health indicators based on the functioning of food webs
- study the role of climate change and cumulative impacts, in particular the effects of offshore wind turbines.
Methodological work on the modeling and analysis tools used (Inverse Linear Monte Carlo Markov Chain Analysis, Ecological Network Analysis) and the quantification of associated uncertainty.
Modeling of socio-ecological systems using directed di-graphs (qualitative models) and Bayesian Belief Networks, with a focus on indirect effects, between actors, via cascades within the food web. Application to issues linking climate change and wind farm construction.
- Leader of the Scientific Collective Expertise “Effects of offshore wind turbines on biodiversity and the functioning of marine socio-ecosystems” for CNRS, co-leader C. Bacher, Ifremer, from November 2023 to November 2025.
- Keynote speaker at the workshop “Use of coastal and estuarine food web models in politics and management: The need for an entire ecosystem approach to prevent crises” organized by the Alfred Wegener Institute in Sylt (Germany) from September 25 to 27, 2017.
- Keynote speaker at the 14th Colloque de l'AFH “Recherche halieutique et développement durable”, June 26-28, 2019.
- Keynote speaker at “Wadden Sea Day: Understanding connections between species essential to Wadden Sea's management”, organized by Unesco Common Wadden Sea Secretariat, August 25, 2022 in Wilhelshaven, Germany.
- Keynote speaker at the worshop “Science for policy: Appraising Concepts for the Marine Good Environmental Status”, organized by JPI Oceans, in Malta, June 21-22, 2023.
- Keynote speaker at the “Marine Socio-Ecological Systems Symposium”, Yokohama, June 3-7, 2024. Introduction to Session 10 “Vulnerability of marine SES to climate change and anthropogenic pressures: Adaptation as a pathway to resilience”.
