The laboratory is open to researchers and students who wish to do micropaleontological analyses or to have them done. Researchers from Geotop have priority access. Collaborations are set up with researchers and students from other Canadian, European and American universities or governmental institutions.

The research topics addressed in the laboratory of marine micropaleontology and palynology are diversified. They mainly relate to changes in climate, ocean and coastal environment according to time scales of millions of years to the current. The work is made from sediment cores and micropaleontological tracers are especially dinoflagellate cysts, pollen and spores, and foraminifera. Other micropaléonotologiques tracers (diatoms, coccoliths) can be used depending on the problem being addressed. Quantitative approaches are preferred not only for calculating the concentrations and flows but also for the analysis of assemblies and their relationship with the environment. The research activities of the laboratory include the development of databases and transfer functions for quantitative reconstructions of environmental parameters.

One of the main tasks of the laboratory is to train students of all levels micropaléontologie, the laboratory regularly hosts students of the college community as well as students from Europe and the Americas.

Laboratory activities include the management and archiving of sediment collected by Geotop researchers, sub-sampling, sediment treatment, sorting of foraminifera for isotopic analysis, the microfaunistiques analysis, pollen analysis, management bases and paleoceanographic hydrographic data, and the data processing for the quantitative recovery of sea surface conditions.

The micropalaeontological and marine palynology laboratory has room for sample preparation by mechanical or chemical treatments. Binocular loupes and microscopes of high optical resolution (magnification up to x 1250) are used for the observations and analysis of microfossil populations. The laboratory is also equipped for detection of digital microscope images. Bases hydrographic and micropaleontological data are compiled for digital processing for quantitative trace the paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic conditions. Access to the scanning electron microscope LAMIC refines observations and descriptions of objects microfossils. It is also in this laboratory are sorted under a binocular microscope, the carbonate tests of foraminifera that are the subject of isotopic analyzes (¹⁸O and ¹³C) and radio time (¹⁴C).

The general topic of the research program deals with climate, ocean, and environmental changes at high latitudes. From a methodological point of view, I use principally microfossil assemblages as indicators of environmental conditions, with special attention paid to the relationships between dinoflagellate cysts (dinocysts) and the hydrography of surface waters. The work on dinocysts led to the development of transfer functions for the reconstruction of ocean parameters such as temperature and salinity, thus density, in addition to the concentration of sea-ice cover. Such parameters are playing a determinant role in the thermohaline ocean circulation, latitudinal heat fluxes, and energy budget at the ocean-atmosphere interface. The ultimate goal of the research program is to address fundamental questions about the ocean and climate dynamics.

The ongoing research projects deal with surface ocean and climate in the northern North Atlantic and circum-Arctic Ocean during paleoclimate episodes marked by conditions warmer than at present. The objectives are to document the climate and ocean variability under warm conditions and to contribute to current exercises of climate model evaluation. In parallel, in collaboration with geochemists, I conduct projects based on micropaleontological approaches in order to investigate recent changes in climate, ocean, and environmental conditions (e.g., eutrophication, hypoxia, acidification, red tide) in coastal and estuarine settings.
