Laboratoire Atmosphères, Milieux, Observations Spatiales (LATMOS)

Laboratory presentation

The laboratory, with a strong spatial and instrumental component, specializes in the study of the physical and chemical processes of terrestrial, planetary and stellar atmospheres (exosphere, heliosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, troposphere) and in the interaction between the terrestrial atmosphere and surfaces (terrestrial, ocean, ocean surface and continental). Innovation in the design of complex ground-based instruments from the poles to the equator and in space and in software development enables it to position itself on regional, national and international projects in collaboration with CNES, other space agencies and the industrial world.
