How the Earth has evolved in relation to the oceans

The ocean from yesterday to tomorrow, from one grain of sand to the continents

Our research focuses on mechanical couplings, chemical exchange, transfers between solid Earth interfaces and surface envelopes, the dynamic processes responsible for land hazards and coastal risks, as well as the sedimentary archives of these different processes.

Targeting cutting-edge research in these areas, we are constantly exploring new methods of observation, sampling and analysis, and developing the deployment of instrumentation both at sea and in the laboratory.
