Implications of the mesopelagic Remineralization for the OceaN Iron Cycle (IRON-IC)
Date du début: 15 mai 2014, Date de fin: 14 mai 2017,
"The bioavailability of iron (Fe) has been shown to limit primary production in up to 50% of the ocean’s waters. As a result of its function in modulating Earth’s climate, the role of Fe supply on the oceanic carbon cycle has received widespread attention over the last two decades. However, much of the research to date has focused new sources Fe, and little attention has been directed toward contr ...

Frequency Combs Quantum Metrology (FRECQUAM)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,
Optical frequency combs are extraordinary tools for metrology which have been recently crowned by a Nobel prize: they have replaced complicated frequency chains to perform direct frequency and time measurements with much higher accuracy, which is now getting close to the quantum limit. However, quantum aspects of measurements performed with these sources have not yet been studied. This is the subj ...
