From 2002, Fred was asked to build a scientific staff on littoral hydro-morphodynamics called GLADYS (www.gladys-littoral.org). From that time, the group GLADYS has grown progressively. At now, Fred co-leads the group GLADYS, which rallies most of the scientists working on littoral hydro-morphodynamics along the French Mediterranean Coast, with distinct approaches ranging from applied mathematics to geosciences.
Presently, Fred Bouchette actively works on the conceptualization of the growth of long term shoreline instabilities such as cuspates or sand spits. On that topic, his last contribution for the Journal of Coastal Research (JCR) is the following proceeding:
Bouchette, F.; Manna, M.; Montalvo, P.; Nutz., A.; Schuster, M.; Ghienne, J.-F., 2014. Growth of cuspate spits. In: Green, A. and Cooper, J.A.G. (eds.), Proceedings from the International Coastal Symposium (ICS) 2014 (Durban, South Africa). Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 70, pp. 47-52.
Fred Bouchette has published >50 papers and short papers in international journals such as Coastal Engineering, Journal of Coastal Research, Discrete and Discontinuous Dynamical Systems, Journal of Geophysical Research, Sedimentology, Continental Shelf Research, Quaternary Research, Ocean Engineering, Marine Geology, and Climate Research. Most of his works were performed with and for students. He has contributed to more than 80 proceedings in international or domestic conferences. Fred Bouchette also heads the scientific development of a HPC numerical platform for coastal engineering (www.mirmidon.org).
