Short CV

After the NF-POGO-IRD 2025 Shipboard Training aboard PIRATA, during cruise F-35, and holding a professional Master’s degree in oceanography and limnology, with the aim of pursuing a research career, I was admitted to the Master 2 research programme SOAC (Sciences of the Ocean, Atmosphere and Climate), Ocean and Applications track, jointly run by the University of Abomey-Calavi (Benin) and the University of Toulouse (France), as an IRD-funded student.

I am currently carrying out my Master’s internship at LEGOS (Laboratory for Studies in Geophysics and Spatial Oceanography, France), under the supervision of Dr Sandrine Djakouré and Dr Serena Illig, on the analysis of the intensity contrast between upwelling cells in the northern Gulf of Guinea. Using the regional CROCO model, combined with satellite and in situ observations.
