Meet Guilhem Chicot - Early Career Scientist

Guilhem Chicot is a French early-career scientist in geophysics and a PhD student at the Royal Observatory of Belgium and KU Leuven. His research explores how geophysical fluids such as the atmosphere, oceans, and hydrosphere influence Earth’s rotation, with a focus on understanding the impacts of climate change on timekeeping and positioning systems.

New Website: Discover the Importance of VLBI for Geodesy and Society

This accessible and visually engaging explainer introduces the fundamentals of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) and shows how radio telescopes around the globe measure distances of thousands of kilometres with millimetre precision. It highlights contributions to the International Terrestrial Reference Frame, satellite navigation, and Earth observation, and showcases Australia’s role in global VLBI operations.
