Research

Context and Issues

Our group is involved in two actions in close collaboration with IFREMER (Brest, Nantes, Boulogne):

  • Integrated life cycle model of the common sole under anthropogenic pressures (WP-Case study North Sea-Channel; S. Rochette, B. Archambault, L. Baulier, O. Le Pape, E. Rivot)
  • Hierarchical modelling of fishing boat trajectories to analyse fishing strategy (WP Human Behavior; P. Gloaguen, J. Guitton, E. Rivot)
See the VECTORS website (awarded the best EU program website!) for an overview of the VECTORS project.

Results

  • Integrated life cycle model of the common sole under anthropogenic pressures
