Research institute founded in 1904 by the Jesuit Order to study Sun-Earth relations. It is currently a public foundation whose research is structured in two lines: the older one, i.e. geomagnetism and aeronomy, and the more recent one, i.e. hydrology and climate change. The second line mainly studies the impacts of climate change on the continental hydrological cycle.
