Dr Loïc Van Audenhaege

Dr Loïc Van Audenhaege is a marine ecologist primarily working with seabed images to derive ecological knowledge on deep-sea benthic communities of abyssal plains, underwater canyons and chemosynthetic environments. Loïc's research draw particular attention on developing imaging and analytical methods to unravel scale dependency of ecological patterns in space and time; to detect ecological patterns in natural conditions or the effect of anthropogenic disturbance. As part of his engineering background, Loïc also aims to develop solutions to facilitate the use of image datasets provided by deep-sea observatories and remote underwater vehicles (e.g., ROV, AUV).
