Assessing Resilience of DEep COrals – ARDECO
Similar to their tropical analogues, cold-water colonial scleractinians are autogenic engineers that create complex habitats while fixing carbon dioxide in the form of aragonite and thus provide important support, provision and regulation services. These cold water corals (CWC) that thrive in the d
Assessments of vulnerability of mature and secondary forests to climatic water stress in Southeast Asia – CWSSEA
The main duties of co-PI JC Domec is to incorporate species hydraulic traits into a predictive model of whole tree water use in response of declining soil water availability, therefore permitting estimates of forest productivity in water limited environments. He also contributed to the presentation
Astronomical solution for the Mesozoic Era – AstroMeso
According to Milankovitch theory (Milankovitch, 1941), some of the large climatic changes of the past originate in the variations of the Earth’s orbit and of its spin axis resulting from the gravitational pull of the other planets. These variations can be traced over several millions of years (Ma) i
At the edges of kinship : origins and new family configurations – ORIGINES
The research carried out in this program aims to shed a new light on the issues raised by the future of adoption, the conditions for the use of assisted reproductive technologies, the legal framework for surrogacy and the use of biogenetic knowledge. The goal is to renew the study of contemporary ki

Atlas of the Balkan Linguistic Area – ABLA
To obtain an up-to-date and detailed picture of what the Balkans as a linguistic area look like, we propose to create an online database that carefully maps the linguistic features in various languages and dialects and to relate them to the socio-historical information available. Friedman (2021) poi
Atmosphere - Sea ice Exchanges and Teleconections
Over the last decades, the Arctic sea ice has experienced a drastic decline which is expected to continue in the near-term future. The inability of state-of-the-art climate models to capture accurately both the rate of Arctic sea ice changes and their impact on lower latitudes is hypothesized to ori
Atmospheric Calibration for Rubin-LSST – CARL
The Rubin-LSST (Large Survey of Space and Time) project is a deep survey of the sky with an 8.40 diameter telescope equipped with a 3.2 billion pixel camera. Starting in 2024, it will map the southern sky for 10 years, with 800 photometric measurements per object, obtained through 6 wide visible ban
Atmospheric River Climatology in Antarctica – ARCA
Over much of Antarctica, the surface mass balance (SMB) is controlled by a few extreme events, resulting in high natural variability in this variable. In particular, it has recently been shown that extreme moisture intrusions related to atmospheric rivers (AR) from the Southern Ocean are major sourc
Attitudes towards vaccines and competence to consent to vaccination against COVID-19 in individuals with schizophrenia – SCHIZOVAC
The main aims of our project is to assess : 1. Attitudes towards vaccines and intention to vaccinate against COVID-19 in individual with schizophrenia compared to nonclinical participants 2. Competence to consent to COVID 19 vaccines in patients compared to nonclinical participants 3. Clinical,
