This call for projects concerns activity in the second half of 2026 for the entire fleet of station ships for which the programming procedure is coordinated by the Oceanographic Fleet Directorate (DFO) for the IR*1 French Oceanographic Fleet (IR* FOF).
The procedure is as follows:
- Campaign applications are submitted online.
- Applications are assessed by the Local Evaluation Committees (CLE).
- The programming of validated requests is then prepared by the directors of the Observatoires des Sciences de l'Univers (OSU) and Stations Marines or their representatives, in collaboration with the CNRS/INSU Technical Division, which manages the station ships for DFO.
- Draft schedules are sent to DFO for approval.
The final programme will be decided by the Fleet Steering Committee, taking into account the ranking of the campaigns assessed.
For MIO staff When you submit your applications, remember to include an additional file detailing scientific and technical information. The evaluation committee pays particular attention to the quality of this file. For teaching projects, please specify the training courses concerned, details of the methods used and the stations sampled (maps, GPS points, etc.). If equipment needs have been expressed on the applications, please note that the form does not transmit the request to the SAM. It is therefore essential to contact the SAM at Nagib Bhairy well in advance to organise this request.
