Biography

Born in 1951, she holds a post-graduate diploma (DESS) in remote sensing, a diploma from Institut national de l’information géographique et forestière (IGN) and an agrégation in geography. A specialist in climatology, she completed a post-graduate thesis in Dijon on: Climatologie descriptive et imagerie satellitaire, contribution à la recherche d'une méthode d'analyse avec application aux basses latitudes under the supervision of Pierre Pagney, followed by a State thesis on l'Atlantique tropical austral: l'eau atmosphérique et le climat en milieu océanique again under the supervision of Pagney.

After serving as deputy director of LA 141 (now Unité mixte de recherche (UMR) Pierre Birot) in Meudon, she became director of UMR 8185 EneC (Espaces, nature et culture) at Paris-Sorbonne (now Sorbonne Université) and French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS).

In 2007, with Xavier Browaeys, Tabeaud created doc2geo, a website of geography documentaries accessible on the Internet.
