The international research program “ReNovRisk-CYCLONE”(RNR-CYC, 2017–2021)
directly involves 20 partners from 5 countries of the south-west Indian-Ocean. It aims at …

Seaport is a critical coastal infrastructure serving important economic purposes but at the
same time is exposed to a wide range of natural hazards including tropical cyclones …

Sea wave monitoring is key in many applications in oceanography such as the validation of
weather and wave models. Conventional in situ solutions are based on moored buoys …

Distant swells produced by high latitude storms are poorly studied despite their significant
impact on almost all major ocean basins. This article studies the consequences of extreme …

Today, resilience in the face of cyclone risks has become a crucial issue for our societies.
With climate change, the risk of strong cyclones occurring is expected to intensify …

Ocean wave activity excites seismic waves that propagate through the solid earth, known as
microseisms, which, once recorded on oceanic islands, can be used to analyse the swell …

Microseisms are generated by the coupling of ocean waves with the solid earth, and their
peak frequencies and source regions vary in different regions. Until recently, there have …

Monitoring of sediment transport during extreme flood events is difficult and often
impossible. Fluvial seismology can provide constraints on the mechanisms of this transport …

Here we report seasonally resolved sea surface temperatures for the southern Mozambique
Channel in the SW Indian Ocean based on multi-trace-element temperature proxy records …

TAAF ensures since 2007 the management of 5 small tropical islands lying in the
southwestern Indian Ocean: the Iles Eparses. These islands share an exceptional natural …
