“…Specimens constituting Dinard Herbarium were mainly collected during three periods: 1843-1866, 1910-1931 and 1949-1967. The quantity of specimens, the taxa collected, the regions of interest and the collectors involved varied among these three periods and reflect the activity of the "itinerant" marine laboratory which is now in Dinard (see companion paper of Lamy et al, 2016). Between 1843 and 1866, the marine laboratory was not yet created; however, phycologists such as Gustave Thuret and Edouard Bornet produced a comprehensive collection from the Manche department, particularly around Cherbourg and Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue.…”

Recent changes in seaweed communities due to rapid shifts of their environment have been largely documented in temperate waters; however, long-term studies are much scarcer. In this study, we investigated the potential of Dinard Herbarium to inform us on temporal changes in seaweed communities of Brittany since the second half of the 19 th century. From nearly 3000 specimens collected in France, we identified and, when possible, corrected taxonomic and localisation errors usually encountered in unchecked natural history collections therefore minimising data inaccuracies. This original study aimed to describe the temporal dynamics of this collection and discuss the relevance of Dinard Herbarium in assessing temporal changes in seaweed communities of Brittany. The use of herbaria to assess spatio-temporal changes of seaweed biodiversity is limited, and to our knowledge, this is the first study trying to investigate this potential in the European Atlantic. This work presents new perspectives for inferring temporal changes of seaweed biodiversity.

“…Only four years before the proclamation of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021Development ( -2030 Despite this impressive number, there is still a lack of systematic and comparative studies on marine-station activities in relation to their coastal communities. While there is a rich and fascinating body of literature on the history of specific stations exploring the itineraries of their leading creators, their research achievements, strategies and networks (Kohler 2002;Groeben 2004;De Bont 2007;Dayrat 2016;Lamy et al 2016), it is harder to find contemporary research (Geissler & Kelly 2016;Heggie 2016). Yet at the science level, marine stations are key players in facilitating access to and the long-term observation of the ocean, as well as on-shore experiments and training.…”

Valuating Marine Knowledge: Heterogeneous Collaborations at the Concarneau Marine Station

Marine stations have long been explored by science and technology studies (STS) and the humanities as boundary objects between the field and the lab. Moreover, through their position, they embrace two domains which have been separated by the modern organization of knowledge – sea and society – not only epistemically, but also physically. In contrast to time-limited marine expeditions or pure laboratory work, marine stations enact “science with their feet in the water” while situated within concrete local societies. Therefore, many marine stations provide multiple ways of valuating the relation between the sea and society. However, in an era of considerable polarization regarding a sustainable future for coastal communities, valuating marine knowledge is a socially complex endeavour. Based on a two-month ethnography of the world’s oldest existing institution of this kind, the Station Marine de Concarneau in Brittany, France, the paper discusses its practical enactment of heterogeneous values associated with marine knowledge. The paper, first, introduces the Concarneau station, its particular research profile and local exposure. Second, an experimentalist approach based on pragmatism and STS is explored in order to rethink current research on the valuation of socio-marine cohesion. Third, three types of valuating marine knowledge through heterogeneous collaborations at the station are explored: a) socio-material, b) socio-epistemic and c) socio-disciplinary. Finally, the paper deduces the importance of marine stations for inter- and transdisciplinary collaboration within the global transformation of sea-society relations.
