Dr. Bonnel's research interests center on ocean acoustics, particularly signal processing and machine learning applied to passive acoustic monitoring, bioacoustics, and ambient noise analysis. He investigates geoacoustic inversion, acoustical tomography, and source localization using normal mode propagation models in underwater environments. His work integrates numerical modeling and ocean instrumentation, contributing to remote sensing and satellite oceanography. These efforts are critical for understanding marine ecosystems and underwater communication.

His scientific contributions span applied ocean sciences, with a strong emphasis on developing advanced methodologies for interpreting underwater acoustic signals. While specific publications are not listed here, his research trajectory indicates a sustained focus on inference systems and ocean acoustic modeling.

Dr. Bonnel leads the Signals, Inference and Ocean Acoustics Lab, where he mentors students and researchers in cutting-edge acoustics projects. He is actively involved in research grants and collaborative oceanographic studies, though specific funding sources are not detailed in the provided text.

He maintains a presence on academic platforms including Google Scholar and ResearchGate, supporting broad dissemination of his work.
