Gwenael Jouet has published extensively, with frequent contributions to the journal Marine Geology, where they have at least ten publications. Other notable publication venues include Marine and Petroleum Geology, Goldschmidt2021 abstracts, Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, and The Journal of Geology.

Some recent papers illustrating the scope of their research are:

  • "Contourite and mixed turbidite-contourite systems in the Mozambique Channel (SW Indian Ocean): Link between geometry, sediment characteristics and modelled bottom currents" (2021, Marine Geology)
  • "The impact of internal waves on upper continental slopes: insights from the Mozambican margin (southwest Indian Ocean)" (2020, Earth Surface Processes and Landforms)
  • "From platform top to adjacent deep sea: New source-to-sink insights into carbonate sediment production and transfer in the SW Indian Ocean (Glorieuses archipelago)" (2020, Marine Geology)
  • "Siliciclastic and bioclastic contouritic sands: Textural and geochemical characterisation" (2021, Marine and Petroleum Geology)
  • "Evolution of the Glorieuses seamount in the SW Indian Ocean and surrounding deep Somali Basin since the Cretaceous" (2020, Marine Geology)

Gwenael Jouet frequently collaborates with a number of scientists, including Stéphan Jorry, Antonio Cattaneo, Pascal Le Roy, Elda Miramontes, and Laurence Droz. These collaborations have contributed to advances in their shared fields of study over multiple projects.
