Keynote speaker4 plenary sessions Laurent Bopp (CNRS, ENS LMD/IPSL): Climate change impacts on marine ecosystems: what scenarios for the 21st century?  Laurent Bopp is a CNRS Senior Scientist at the Institut Pierre-Simon Laplace, and Adjunct Professor at the Ecole Normale Supérieure, in Paris. He is currently the head of the Geosciences Department at the Ecole Normale Supérieure. He received his PhD from the University of Paris in 2001. His research focuses on the links between climate, climate change and marine biogeochemistry. In particular, he has been among the first to use global climate models to explore how anthropogenic climate change might affect marine productivity & ecosystems as well as ocean air-sea fluxes. He has been involved in the last IPCC assessment report as a lead author for the chapter on Biogeochemical Cycles. He has received the Medaille de la Societe d'Oceanographie de France in 2011, and the AGU Ocean Section Voyager Award in 2016.
