Whether they come from sewers, Antarctica or the ocean floor, the cores extracted by LSCE scientists are a mine of information about the climate and the environment.
During the France 2 television news programme on Saturday 22 March 2024, a report was devoted to the carrots that LSCE scientists extract and analyse.
The first part of the report focused on the ANR EGOUT project, with contributions from Jérémy Jacob, the researcher in charge of the project, and Camille Asselin, a doctoral student, on what sewer sediments can tell us about the city and its inhabitants.
The video then goes on to talk about other emblematic types of core that we are studying at the LSCE (polar, marine, etc.), in particular by paleoceanographer Elisabeth Michel.
At the LSCE, we study a very wide variety of cores, which can come from trees, corals, lakes, caves, etc.
