The objectives of the DUNES project are on the one hand to understand the sedimentary and ecosystem dynamics of underwater dunes, and on the other hand to provide technology developers and industrialists in the ORE sector with complementary knowledge and approaches to work in environments with hydraulic dunes. The expected results are first of all to have a better knowledge of the physical processes and the natural functioning of hydraulic dunes, to create a free access GIS dedicated to dune fields and sandbanks, to characterize on a fine scale of the structure of food webs in dunes to understand the functioning of these particular systems, and finally to establish methodological recommendations regarding the evaluation of anthropogenic impacts on dune ecosystems.

This document presents an analysis of the isotopic ratios of organisms sampled on the site of the future Windfarm.

This paper presents a first framework for OSPAR Regional Sea Convention food web indicators based on ENA. These are presented here focusing on their applicability and what is needed for implementation, illustrating their potential use by case studies.

This paper presents an open source framework for modeling current and future ecological niches of marine species

Conclusion and recommendation report resulting from the results of the ANODE project and published by FEM editions

This study investigated the effects of a spatial closure during the exploitation phase of an offshore wind farm in the extended Bay of Seine (English Channel, France) using Ecospace, a spatially and temporally explicit module of Ecopath with Ecosim.

In the context of the development of marine renewable energies in France, the recommendations report produced within the framework of the TROPHIK project is the first French approach to an integrated study on ecosystem changes related to the implementation of an offshore wind farm.
