Special issue in Frontiers in Photobiology : Aquatic Phototrophic Communities: Insights into Light-driven Ecological Dynamics.
Mes recherches concernent la photobiologie et la productivité photosynthétique des différentes formes de vie des microalgues diatomées (planctoniques, benthiques, sympagiques), en particulier dans les environnements extrêmes où elles dominent la production primaire marine : sédiments des vasières intertidales estuariennes et systèmes polaires (banquise, lisière des glaces et pleine mer). Mes recherches intègrent une approche couplée terrain/laboratoire et monitoring in situ/expérimental.
My research activities deal with the photobiology and photosynthetic productivity of different growth forms of diatom microalgae (plankton, microphytobenthos, sea-ice habitat), especially in extreme environments where diatoms dominate the marine primary production : sediments of estuarine intertidal mudflats and polar ecosystems (sea-ice, marginal ice zone and open water habitats). My research activities use an approach coupling fiel/lab and in situ monitoring/experiments.
