Solid Earth's seen from space

My work in the Solid Earth theme has remained focused on the continuity of key physical parameter data to enhance our understanding of internal Earth's processes and their geological manifestations at the planet’s surface. The ESA Swarm mission is a primary focus among the space missions I amhave been involved with. In addition to this, I have been actively engaged in leveraging gravity data from the GRACE, GRACE-FO and GOCE missions, aimed at improving our understanding of Earth’s gravity field. Alongside the use of space-based data from these missions, I have also collaborated with various French research teams working on Solid Earth-related topics, including geodesy (such as the DORIS network and the improvement of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF)), as well as other fields like LIDAR and hyperspectral imaging. These collaborations have been crucial for broadening the scope of research in this domain.
