ISTerre (Grenoble) is a renowned Earth Sciences laboratory that provides important research infrastructure both at the national and international levels. ISTerre has an important role in the management the French pool of mobile seismic instruments (including passive sensors and active sources), which provides us with the expertise and infrastructure necessary to carry out seismic field experiments, especially for La Réunion Island, where we have developed volcano-monitoring methods.
The two geophysics experiments will be carried out using either FairFieldNOdal or Sercel technology. Similar quotes have been obtained from these two companies ( 45 k€, see quote in "budget justification") for two weeks of continuous recordings on 1000 geophones. This part of the budget includes the engineering cost, data transfer and disk storage.

ISTerre (Chambéry) is renowned for its geology and volcanology research groups. ISTerre Chambéry has started to develop a pool of geophysical instrumentation in galvanometric and electromagnetic methods with the abillity to carry out multi-scale field campaigns worldwide. ISTerre and Université Savoie Mont Banc will contribute to the project through their codes in the inversion of electrical and electromagnetic data and the development of codes for thejoint inversion of seismic and electrical data, plus their pool of instrumentation for large scale electricalresistivity and induced polarization surveys.
