<description>The Observatori de l'Ebre (OE) is a Research Institute founded in 1904 to study the Sun-Earth relationships. OE is governed by a Non-Profit
Foundation belonging to the Ramon Llull University (URL) as University Institute and it is a Coordinated Center of the Spanish National Research
Council (CSIC). Over the years it has excelled in the study of earth currents, atmospheric electricity, solar, geomagnetic activity and the terrestrial
ionosphere. Currently, OE carries out two research lines: a) Geomagnetism and Aeronomy, and b) Hydrology and Climate Change; being active (with national
and international based projects of research and development) in both of them. The research activity of the group of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy embraces
the monitoring and research of the variability of the Earth’s ionosphere and geomagnetic field, as well as the modelling of such variability ingesting
available space data. We carry out topics of research that are unique in Spain and competitive at international level. Moreover, OE manages several
geophysical observatories: in Spain and in the Antarctic Spanish Base; assuring the continuity and reliability of its observations, with more than a
hundred years of history. This enables to develop specific research based on the deep knowledge of the geophysical variables checked daily and providing
value added data and products for other research teams. OE is also aware of the importance of the education so that, it contributes to a PhD program at
the Ramon Llull University.
