Lars E. Sjoberg has been a professor of Geodesy at Sweden’s Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) for 30 years and has been the chair of 4 IAG Special Study Groups on gravity and geodynamics. He has been the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Geodetic Science since it was founded in 2011. He developed the unique KTH method with additive corrections using least squares by spectral weighting of observables, as well as a method for estimating Moho depth and density contrast from gravity. He leads several international geoid schools on the KTH method, and has published more than 330 articles, mostly in peer-reviewed journals.
Mohammad Bagherbandi is senior researcher at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and a Professor at the University of Gavle, Sweden. His professional interests include Physical Geodesy, Geodynamics and Satellite Gravimetry. He received his Ph.D. in Geodesy from the KTH in 2011, and became an instructor at the Institute in 2013. His background is in Land Surveying Engineering, and he completed a Master of Science in Geodesy in Iran. He is currently pursuing multidisciplinary research combining directions such as Geophysics, Geodesy and Land Surveying (applied geodesy). His main research interest is in developing and interconnecting Geodesy and Geophysics.
