Paris Cité University, IPGP | France

Prof. Jean-Paul Montagner, based at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris, France (Scopus ID: 7004338438), is an eminent French seismologist internationally recognized for his groundbreaking research on the Earth’s deep structure, mantle dynamics, and seismic anisotropy. His pioneering contributions to seismic tomography, anisotropy inversion, and the understanding of mantle convection have significantly advanced global geophysics. According to Scopus, he has authored 156 scientific publications with 7,550 citations from 4,671 documents and holds an h-index of 46. His research spans a broad spectrum including mantle and core structure, seismic wave propagation in heterogeneous and anisotropic media, global and regional seismology, geophysical instrumentation, and planetary seismology. Prof. Jean-Paul Montagner has been instrumental in developing large-scale seismological networks such as GEOSCOPE and has led international collaborations integrating seismological data from multiple observatories. His work on three-dimensional Earth models and vectorial tomography has laid the foundation for modern seismic imaging of velocity and anisotropy structures. He has coordinated major European research and training programs, including the European RTN SPICE, ITN QUEST, and Erasmus Mundus GeoDES Doctoral School, fostering next-generation scientific excellence in global seismology. A recipient of numerous prestigious awards—including the Inge Lehmann Medal (AGU, 2021), Beno Gutenberg Medal (EGU, 2010), CNRS Bronze Medal (1988), and election as Fellow of the AGU (2004) Prof. Jean-Paul Montagner’s scientific influence extends across continents. He has served as editor, reviewer, and scientific board chair for leading journals and international programs, and as panelist for ERC Advanced Grants, AGU Fellows Selection Committee, and various European and Indo-French research committees. His intellectual leadership is further evidenced by his roles in organizing numerous high-level international workshops and conferences bridging seismology, geodynamics, and Earth system science. Prof. Jean-Paul Montagner’s research innovations continue to shape the understanding of Earth’s internal structure, seismic anisotropy, and dynamic processes linking geophysics with planetary exploration.
