Welcom to HAL - MIO
The MIO Oceanography research laboratory forms part of the OSU-Pytheas Institute and is under the joint direction of Aix-Marseille University, Toulon University, the CNRS and the IRD. Our goal is to better understand the oceanic system and its evolution in response to global changes. MIO constitutes a center of expertise in marine biology, ecology, biodiversity, microbiology, halieutics, physics, chemistry, biogeochemistry and sedimentology. Our working environment is the world ocean, along with its continental, atmospheric and sediment interfaces. The laboratory is created from the merger of Oceanology Center of research units of Marseille, the LSEET, a researcher IRPHE and LMBEC
