In the context of the development of marine renewable energies in France, the recommendations report produced within the framework of the TROPHIK project is the first French approach to an integrated study on ecosystem changes related to the implementation of an offshore wind farm.

Spatial study and sensitivity of network indices to wind farm closure and climate disruption using an Ecospace model

The main objective of this atlas is to summarise the knowledge acquired on biofouling, and more generally on communities of living organisms on hard substrates, available today in mainland France and the French overseas territories, in order to anticipate the issues that this phenomenon will pose in an ORE context. The atlas is based on the most exhaustive bibliographical analysis possible, including A-level scientific articles, reports (training courses, monitoring, studies), and works presenting the results of studies conducted in French waters

The objective of the CASSIOWPE project was to support the development of offshore wind energy in the French Mediterranean coastal areas by providing a database of high-resolution observations of wind, wave and current fields as well as a new numerical tool for the modelling of metocean conditions in the Gulf of Lion.

This deliverable presents the 1st report on dissemination and communication activities. It is a did term review

With the DTOcean software at an important stage in its development, the first of two training workshops foreseen by the project was organised on 5 May 2015, in Glasgow, alongside the All-Energy conference. The workshop was organised with the following goals in mind: validate decisions taken to date with industry stakeholders; generate feedback which will further align the tool with industry needs; and promote the DTOcean tool and enhance its eventual uptake as a result

This document identifies gaps in knowledge and emphasizes the need for long-term monitoring of marine mammals in order to better understand the impacts of wind turbines on them

Synthesis of existing data for the modeling work to follow (modeling in the deliverables of lot 3)

The objective of the DiMe project was to improve the characterisation of extreme sea states with breaking waves by combining observations and modelling.

During the ABIOP project launch meeting, the consortium agreed to add a task to the project aimed at identifying the challenges of biocolonisation in an ORE context. This additional work is indeed necessary because it allows the organisation, updating and presentation of the reflections undertaken by biofouling experts from various industrial and research entities and federated by FEM, for several years on this topic.
