The three research laboratories supporting the academic programs of the Earth, Water, and Environment Department at Montpellier are joint research units with national and international reach. All three are partners in the Mediterranean Environmental Research Observatory (OSU-OREME).Géosciences Montpellier (GM)conducts research on Earth dynamics and their surface manifestations, taking into account the interactions between the Earth’s various layers. It is overseen by the University of Montpellier (UM), the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), and the University of the Antilles.HydroSciences Montpellier (HSM)conducts research ranging from the study of the hydrological cycle of surface and groundwater systems to the effects of global change on water resources. Its sponsoring organizations are the University of Montpellier (UM), the CNRS, and the IRD.The Montpellier Institute of Evolutionary Sciences (ISEM)conducts research on the origin and dynamics of biodiversity, as well as the processes and mechanisms of its evolution. Its sponsoring organizations are the University of Montpellier (UM), the CNRS, the IRD, and the EPHE.
