Encyclopedia
Bruno R.C. Granier is "professeur de seconde classe" (professor) of geology at the university of Brest (France) (also locally referred to as the Université de Bretagne Occidentale).
He claims the publication of more than 60 scientific papers , however, on feb 2011, only 19 are referenced by the ISI Web of knowledge database (total number of citation=49, h-index=4).
In Brest, he teaches at undergratuate level (licence) : field geology, sedimentology and micropaleontology
.
His fields of interest are sequence stratigraphy
, carbonate sedimentology, diagenesis
, stratigraphy, rock-typing, and micropaleontology
(particularly on the study of fossil calcareous algae).
He is also editor of the open access electronic journal Carnets de Géologie
http://paleopolis.rediris.es/cg/, associate editor of Palaios
http://paleo.ku.edu/palaios/info.html and the manager of the internet website Geoscience e-Journals http://paleopolis.rediris.es/geosciences/.
From 2007 to 2011, president of the French Committee of Stratigraphy http://www.univ-brest.fr/geosciences/CFS/ and, with this respect, he organized the 4th French meeting on Stratigraphy, STRATI2010.

His fields of interest are sequence stratigraphy
Sequence stratigraphy
Sequence stratigraphy is a branch of geology that attempts to subdivide and link sedimentary deposits into unconformity bound units on a variety of scales and explain these stratigraphic units in terms of variations in sediment supply and variations in the rate of change in accommodation space...
, carbonate sedimentology, diagenesis
Diagenesis
In geology and oceanography, diagenesis is any chemical, physical, or biological change undergone by a sediment after its initial deposition and during and after its lithification, exclusive of surface alteration and metamorphism. These changes happen at relatively low temperatures and pressures...

Palaios
PALAIOS is a bimonthly academic journal dedicated to the study of the impact of life on Earth history, combining the fields of palaeontology and sedimentology. It has been published by the Society for Sedimentary Geology since its inception in 1986. Although not an acronym, the title PALAIOS is...
