Constraints and Adaptations to Global Change at the Land-Sea Interface: For a Shared Ecological and Energy Transition Proceedings of the 19th French—Japanese Oceanography Symposium

Patrick Prouzet is a specialist in the biology and dynamics of diadromous species like European eel and Atlantic salmon. He holds a PhD in biological oceanography and a post-graduate qualification in research. His research focuses on the impact of global change on the management and restoration of diadromous species. He advises fisheries bodies in France and Japan within the Satoumi and Satoyama framework.

Professor Emeritus Jean-Claude Dauvin is a distinguished Professor Emeritus and Officer of Maritime Merit. He serves on the editorial boards of the Marine Pollution Bulletin and the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering. His research at Caen Normandy University focuses on benthic and suprabenthic communities, marine ecosystem conservation, marine invertebrates, Marine Renewable Energy, and taxonomy of amphipods and polychaetes. He has authored or co-authored around 350 international peer-reviewed papers.

Teruhisa Komatsu specializes in coastal marine ecology, particularly seagrass and seaweed beds. He has conducted ecological studies on Caulerpa taxifolia and Posidonia oceanica. He leads the “Ocean Remote Sensing Project for Coastal Habitat Mapping” and conducts satoumi research on the recovery of the Sanriku region after the 2011 tsunami. He is the president of the SFJO Japan Chapter.

Eric Feunteun is a Professor of Marine Ecology at the French Museum National d’Histoire Naturelle (MNHN) and EPHE. He specializes in the conservation ecology of marine ecosystems and migratory fish, particularly the eel. His research includes the cumulative effects of offshore wind power on coastal ecosystems. He has been involved in the designation and management of Marine Protected Areas and acts as an expert in European framework directives.

Anne-Claire Bennis is a Full Professor of Marine Physics at the University of Caen Normandy. She specializes in the coastal environment and its interactions between hydrodynamics, sediments, and biology/ecology. She is a numerical modeler and chaired the scientific committee for the COAST 2023 event.

Osamu Matsuda is a Professor Emeritus of Hiroshima University and President of the Satoumi Research Institute, Japan. He specializes in the environmental management of enclosed coastal seas, nutrient cycles, eutrophication, environmental restoration, and Satoumi creation. He has worked extensively in field research, including Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition and projects in arctic and tropical areas. He has been involved in various international environmental initiatives and projects.
