Your Work Environment
Geo-Ocean is a multidisciplinary geosciences research unit covering geophysics, geochemistry, tectonics, sedimentology, and paleontology. Our research involves the observation, measurement, and modeling of geological processes. We also develop methodological and instrumental approaches applied to the exploration of oceans and continents, from the Earth's mantle to surface environments in coastal and open-ocean settings. Geo-Ocean, jointly supervised by the University of Brest (UBO), CNRS, Ifremer, and the University of South Brittany (UBS, Vannes), comprises approximately 220 members, including 130 permanent staff. The unit is organized into five research teams. The work will be carried out in Plouzané (France) within the CYBER team (Biogeochemical Cycles and Resources), in close collaboration with researchers from the BEEP laboratory. Geochemical analyses will be performed primarily at the Ocean Spectrometry Facility (PSO).
