Nicolas Mayot is a post-doctoral researcher working in the context of the FORMAL scientific project. His current project aims to assess the phenology of phytoplankton in the Southern Ocean, at the surface and at depth, using BGC-Argo floats, considering the response of phytoplankton communities. His previous research projects have focused on the study of processes linked to primary production, air-sea CO2 fluxes and carbon storage in the oceans. The temporal scales of his research range from phytoplankton bloom episodes to annual cycles, including interannual and decadal variability.

Sciences-Sur-Mer

As part of the Year of the Ocean, the Laboratoire d’Océanographie de Villefranche is actively participating in two major events: the One Ocean Science Congress and l’UNOC’3.
Our unit’s staff will take part in scientific discussions and associated events, and will also contribute to the “Sciences-sur-Mer” Festival (June 7–13, Villefranche-sur-Mer), which aims to strengthen the link between science and society by offering opportunities for dialogue between stakeholders and inviting both the general public and school groups to take part.
