Geosciences Montpellier combines all means of research and teaching in Earth Sciences in Montpellier.The mission of the laboratory is to develop new knowledge about the Earth’s dynamics and surface manifestations, taking into account the coupling between different envelopes (atmosphere, hydrosphere, crust, mantle).The objective is to improve understanding of geodynamic processes at different scales of time and space, and contribute to research on the prediction of natural hazards and resource management.The laboratory has a wide variety of areas of interest and expertise. We discuss several aspects of the Earth’s dynamics, such as the structure and deformation of mantle, lithosphere and basins, using the tools of tectonics, geochemistry, geochronology, geophysics and sedimentology.
