ECOLA: Observation et modeling of the coastal ocean from regional to nearshore scales
The ECOLA team addreses questions of dynamical interactions between the offshore and nearshore areas of the ocean. The topics include external and internal tides, coastal upwelling, ocean-atmosphere coupling, wave-driven coastal dynamics, sediment processes in estuaries, and the effect of climate changes and variability at the regional scales. |
Various study sites are used:

The methods used are numerical modeling, analysis of observations (satellite and in-situ) and data assimilation.
Some of our work participates to the development of operational oceanography through collaborations with MERCATOR, NOVELTIS, CLS-Argos...
