Climate change

Climate change has innumerable consequences for the environment. Whether it is on forest, ocean or lake ecosystems, agriculture, cryosphere or environmental risks, CARTEL is working to better understand the impacts of climate change. CARTEL researchers working on the topic Yannick Huot (Oceanography, surface hydrology, water quality) Richard Fournier (Wetlands, watersheds) Kalifa Goïta (Changes in surface water levels) Alexandre … Read more

Wetlands, surface waters and oceans

[ap_spacing spacing_height= »15px »] [ap_spacing spacing_height= »15px »]The oceans cover more than 70% of the Earth’s surface. The monitoring and follow-up of our oceans is essential and carried out thanks to the remote sensing of the main water parameters such as: temperature, salinity, phytoplankton concentration… The Cartel is equipped with a laboratory specialized in the study of phytoplankton and … Read more

Cryosphere and northern environments

[ap_spacing spacing_height= »15px »] Climate change is transforming the Arctic landscape. The global rise in temperature has a greater impact on certain regions and the impacts are varied: damage to permafrost, changes in snow cover affecting albedo, fauna and the quantity of water accumulated in watersheds. The study of snow cover is also extremely important from a … Read more
