Présentation

My research focuses on sea ice physics, variability and forecast. I also look at the interactions between sea ice and the other components of the climate system, with a particular interest in the Arctic region. I have expertise in both sea ice modelling and observations statistical analysis, as well as some experience in data assimilation. Recently, I have been involved in the use of AI-driven approaches for solving diverse sea ice problems. More specifically, I worked on the multi-scale characterization of sea ice and earth crust dynamics, and how it can be translated in terms of continuous rheological models. This work materialized into the development of a new class of rheology for continuous sea ice models based on damage mechanics. In parallel, I investigated issues related to the remote sensing of sea ice drift, deformation, age, thickness and lead fraction from satellites. I also contributed to the development of a new framework for data assimilation into Lagrangian models running on adaptive meshes, in collaboration with data assimilation experts and mathematicians. I instigated and led the development of the next generation Lagrangian sea ice model neXtSIM and its associated operational forecasting platform neXtSIM-F until 2021. This platform provides sea ice information in near-real time for the Arctic region through the EU Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service. Since 2021, I am the lead-PI of the SASIP project, an international collaborative effort to better understand the impact of amplified warming in polar regions, through the development of a new sea ice modelling paradigm. One noticeable deliverable of this project is to provide a new, truly innovative, scale-aware sea ice model; one that faithfully represents sea ice dynamics and thermodynamics and that is physically sound, data-adaptive, highly parallelized and computationally efficient. This model is designed to be used in next generation Earth System Models and forecasting platforms.
