The MIO research laboratory is a component of the OSU-Pytheas Institute and is under the joint direction of Aix-Marseille University, Toulon University, the CNRS and the IRD. Our goal is to better understand the oceanic system and its evolution in response to global change. The MIO constitutes a center of expertise in marine biology, ecology, biodiversity, microbiology, halieutics, physics, chemistry, biogeochemistry and sedimentology. Our working environment is the world ocean, alongside its continental, atmospheric and sediment interfaces. We strive for an ocean environment with a future !
At the moment, there are no seminars or colloquiums.
The Sargasso Program was established to address a major concern for the French West Indies population. Since 2011, they have faced brown tides that followed by large strandings. This can have devastating consequences for wildlife, florebenthics, and human health as well as human activities and livelihoods. The scientists set off on expeditions to collect samples and perform analyses to find out more about brown algae.
This research project aims to understand the dynamics and role of the PSB in the Arctic Ocean of tomorrow.
