Trends in Biological Oceanography
Temporal change of Eutrophication and Hypoxia events in Chesapeake Bay (in collaboration with students from IMBRSea MSc: Esther Cepeda, Halle Feiring & Ward Standaert)
MEDO: Methods for the Exploitation of Data in Oceanography (Villefranche-sur-Mer, France)
This poster show data analysis (R and Ocean Data View) made after several sampling cruises. The objective here was to study inshore-offshore biotic and abiotic gradients in the Villefranche Bay. We had less than a week to present our results.
The analysis are:
- Temperature-Salinity diagram
- PCA (Principal Component Analysis)
- The first dimension represents mostly abiotic properties of the water masses
- The second dimension represents the nutrients
- Coordinates (Dim 1 and Dim 2) of each point are then extracted and represented against the distance to the coast
- Linear interpolation of the chlorphyll a shows the Deep Chlorophyll Maximum (around 50m depth)
- The clustering shows the inshore-offshore differentiation of the different stations
Internship: spatio-temporal recruitment of Sicypterus lagocephalus, amphidromous Gobiddae of the Indian Ocean (BOREA,MNHN, LOCEAN)
This poster and This report resume the 2 months internship of my MSc first year. Statistical Analysis (ANOVA and posthoc tests) were made on Pealgic Larval Duration (PLD), determined by otolithometry. The recruitment phase is crutial because it is a this life stage that this species is targeted by the local fishermen. The goal here was to assess spatial (rivers) and temporal (seasons and year) differences of this PLD. Then, backward larval dispersion was modelled (ICHTHYOP model) in order to observe potential spawning rivers.
