Ecosystem services – Aquatic resources – Functional Biodiversity – Functional Ecology
Description
The module is focused on Ecosystems services with a general presentation of related concepts on ecosystem in general (first part) and emphasis on aquatic living resources in particular (second part).
Part 1: Concepts and tools in ecosystems functioning
This course addresses ecosystems understanding and associated services through different and complementary approaches, from the integrative ecology (including natural abiotic, biotic factors and human impact), the functional and evolutionary relationship between groups (such as parasitism, mutualism, invasive species, engineer species…), to the assessment of environmental threats on ecosystems integrity.
Each topic represents about 5-6 hours of teaching both theoretical and practical.
· Integrative ecology Main aspects useful in the understanding, evolution, assessment, management and conservation of ecosystems, including human impact
· Ecosystem dynamics and community ecology Natural relationship between communities (invertebrates and vertebrates) in undisturbed ecosystems; Principles of ecosystems dynamic and links between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
· Economics & management of biodiversity Focus on specific groups in biodiversity, important in economics and human health through their negative (pests, disease vectors…) and positive impact for Human (auxiliaries in biological control, pollinators, ecological engineers, decomposers…) with emphasis on how to manage, use, protect and conserve useful biodiversity.
· Principles in population biology This topic is focused on tools and methods commonly used to assess populations dynamics including studies of case using mathematical, modelling, genetic, experimental and GIS tools. The training is also presenting behavioural (strategies, life history traits) and cladistics (phylogeny) methods as well.
Part 2: Focus on aquatic living resources
Biology, exploitation and management of living aquatic resources: Know the richness of aquatic environments and issues associated with their exploitation. (15-20 h)
This course seeks to provide the foundations required to understand and study aquatic living resources, their dynamic, exploitation and management. As man increasingly exploits and modifies aquatic environment we also analyze the response of living resources to changes in environmental conditions.
More specifically this course
- describe and explain the different types of aquatic living resources available in different aquatic environments, their exploitation and culture.
- describe population dynamic, harvest and maintenance of the living resources in inland and marine waters. Current problems of fishing practices and fishery resource management.
- investigate the sensitivity of aquatic living resources in relation to human interventions. We particularly describe how environmental factors (including climate change, fisheries, pollution, introduced and invasive species and habitat destruction) influence the quality and quantity of aquatic products produced under natural and cultured conditions.

Description
This course gives an introduction to pressure driven and free surface flows in pipe modelling in real world case. The first part focuses on the classical numerical methods used to model water network (finite difference approach, stability problem, hardy-cross method, Preissmann slice…) and on the use of water network modelling software. In a second part, real networks will be modelled to :
· understand the phenomenon that can occur (water hammer, cavitation …),
· highlight the role of specific network equipment (pressure control, water hammer equipment, …)
· highlight the rules of network sizing (ideal location of a reservoir, reinforcement of the network, …).
An important part of the course is devoted to give practical skills to students through the practice of a modelling software in a real world case.
This course is an application of the bases teached in WEO-03 and WEO-15.

Description
Natural services and anthropogenic influences, bioremediation, biorestauration :
Ecological engineering is interested in environment management by promoting or designing facilities (sustainable, adaptive, multi-functional) based on knowledge of the mechanisms that govern ecological systems (self-organization, high biodiversity, heterogeneous structures...). The pure chemical or physical processes are not included in the scope of ecological engineering, but are necessarily related disciplines. How some species or natural populations or communities are able to help in the sustainable management of ecosystems or peri-urban natural, is the main concern of this class. The knowledge of the organisms influences on the ecosystem functioning will be influence Ecological engineering is applied in this TU to promote good quality environments. The economic and social issues are also taken into account in this concern.
Goals of ecological engineering:
• The rehabilitation of degraded ecosystems, restoration of functional communities, reintroduction of species;
• The creation of new sustainable ecosystems that have value to humans and the biosphere (eg regeneration of green and blue, use of biodiversity in urban areas...).
• The development of biological tools to control, manage or resolve community problems of pollution, restoring or maximizing an "ecosystem service"....
Field trip will be included to show examples of ecological engineering. Also a second field day will be devoted to explore a case of pertubated ecosystem that will be the support of personal work to propose management solutions to specific problems

Keywords
Sediment transport, Mud, Sand, Turbidity, Sediment processes, Estuarine circulation
Description
Basics on sediment transport are given (sediment budget, sediment properties), then sediment processes are detailed. The flow in the boundary layer is described (in rivers, under waves, and under the combination of waves and currents). The threshold of motion is explained and transport into suspension is described. Specific processes for the transport of cohesive and non-cohesive particles are then exposed. This series of lectures ends by methodological information and examples.
The second part of the unit encompasses basic knowledge on estuarine circulation and sediment transport in estuaries. Examples are studied with the students, in an interactive process.
If possible, a field trip is organized in the Cam-Bach Dang estuary, or in Halong Bay, to introduce some instruments that are widely used in coastal oceanography and sediment transport studies (CTD, ADCP, turbidimeter, grain size meter, etc.)

Keywords
Climate change, Extreme Climatic Events, Biogeochemistry, Greenhouse gas emissions, Sedimentation, Climatic Models
Description
The course focuses on evidence of climate change in the past, modern climate variability, and the range of theories and arguments regarding potential climate change in the future. The course also focuses on the effects of climate change on biodiversity. We look at the major controls on climate variability at a range of temporal scales. We study modern research methods that are used to investigate past climate and to model possible climatic trends, such as global warming. Topics include the carbon cycle, solar orbital variations, extreme events evolution, greenhouse warming, ocean-atmosphere feedbacks and the impact of this climate change on ecosystems. We explore the human role in global change, and the response of the environment to such changes, including effects such as sea level rise, changes in vegetation and fauna, and changes in ocean circulation.
