High-resolution Paleoclimate Archives & Social vulnerability for the last Millennium in Cyprus (Near-East) – HIGH-PASM
Understanding how past societies responded to extreme climatic changes is crucial for gaining insight into current & future challenges, especially environmental stress & sanitary conditions in the context of climate change in the Near-East. Evidence from paleoclimate data indicates hydrological changes in steep topography environments. These fluctuations were challenging for societies since precipitation variability can impact agriculture, food production, sanitary conditions.
Monitoring of new and existing infrastructures by embedded sensors to assess the indicators required for their sustainable management – SCaNING
For a detailed diagnosis and the recalculation of the service life duration, in order to extend the exploitation period of transportation and nuclear structures in concrete, their managers require qualified and continuous measurements of the indicators of concrete performances (compressive strength, elastic modulus, porosity and water content). For their continuous monitoring, we are developing systems using electromagnetic, electric and ultrasonic sensors.
Affective Force Fields in Urban Space – SPACEFORCE
What makes a city place attractive? This question has both scientific and political relevance, as many major cities face current challenges such as population growth, soaring rents, and increased social segregation among different districts. Various disciplines, such as architecture, urban planning and economics, have extensively studied this question. We address important gaps by applying a socio-psychological perspective.
Intrinsically-Robust and Control-Aware Motion Planning for Robots in Real-World Conditions – CAMP
The ambition and scientific novelty of CAMP is to develop a general and unified “intrinsically-robust and control-aware motion planning framework” and to demonstrate the applicability of this new framework to real robots in real-world challenging tasks.
Equality and Law In Personal Status – ELIPS
ELIPS investigates the evolution of legal systems in Asia and Africa recognizing a variety of personal-status laws for their citizens and the tensions involved by these diverse family laws with the principle of equality.
Intensity interferometry at Calern – I2C
After the pioneering studies in the 1960s-70s, intensity interferometry has given way to amplitude interferometry, which has a better sensitivity, but at the cost of a much greater complexity. The I2C project aims at demonstrating the new potential of intensity interferometry using modern photon detection and manipulation and digital signal processing technologies.

Contrasting adaptive/acclimatization potentials of fire coral holobionts (Millepora spp) facing global change – the role of the Symbiodiniaceae photosymbiont – SymbioFire
Coral reefs directly support half a billion people and are home to a quarter of marine biodiversity. However, they have been facing an increasing number of local and global stressors that threaten their existence and the services they provide to human societies. The acceleration of massive bleaching events, more and more frequent, weakens the reefs which do not have time to recover between two events. It is therefore urgent to better characterize the adaptive capacities of corals.
