Methodological developments for a robust and efficient digital twin of the ocean …
The MEDIATION project targets two questions: how will global change impact the functioning of regional marine ecosystems, and how to evaluate the effect of measures to preserve the environment? With two main demonstrators on the French coasts (Atlantic and Mediterranean), MEDIATION will combine methodological developments in numerical sciences (taking into account uncertainties, high performance computing and artificial intelligence) with advances in the modeling of physical, biogeochemical and biological processes in the ocean. It aims at setting up a modeling chain, integrating data and allowing to significantly increase the number of scenarios (climate change, human activities) evaluated. The numerical tools developed will also contribute to a better science-society-policy interaction.
