In partnership with their Marseille counterparts at IMBE, researchers from the MIO laboratory at the University of Toulon are studying the role of dissolved organic carbon on the ecology of the rope lake.

Co-financed by the State and local authorities, Ifremer's head office is located on the Institute's largest scientific research center. It houses the central services and governance of the institute formerly located in Issy-les-Moulineaux. Called "Bougainville", this building, built according to the High Environmental Quality (HQE) standards, is part of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) approach that now guides the institute's actions.

MAP-IO (Marion Dufresne Atmospheric program-Indian Ocean, PI: Pierre Tulet) is a program led by the Laboratory of Cyclone Astmosphere (LACy), funded by the Reunion region, the FEDER, the FOF, the MOM and the CNRS and aims to create an observatory of atmospheric and oceanographic variables on the ship Marion Dufresne. A total of 19 sensors are installed since November 2020 and will operate autonomously and continuously.
