Research interests

Professor Gloaguen works on the integration of geoscientific methods to improve the characterization of groundwater resources, economic minerals, and hydrocarbon resources in order to monitor and predict their evolution over time. More specifically, he is interested in:

  • data integration by ensemble methods and artificial intelligence
  • characterization of resources by quantitative assimilation of data from multiple sources
  • monitoring and prediction of coastal aquifers
