My research focuses on the observation, quantification and prediction of coastal erosion for fundamental and applied research purposes and I am now interested in Nature-based Solutions to anticipate and adapt to climate change. To date, I have co-supervised 7 theses, directed more than 50 master's theses and participated in a dozen international research programmes. I mainly teach physical geography, geomorphology and natural hazards, with a focus on coastal and fluvial hazards.
Director of the Geography-Planning-Environment department of the ALLSH UFR (AMU) since 2017, I have also been director of the COAST (Coastal Management and Vulnerabilities) master's course since 2019 and deputy director of the Institut des Sciences de l'Océan since 2021.
