Research lines
-
Creation of spatial models that show the potential distribution of species, depending on present and future environmental conditions. Useful models for the management of threatened species in a climate change ...
-
The aim is to characterise the influence of biogeochemical flows and contamination on the quality of bodies of surface and subterranean water and their ecosystems.
-
Modelling water quality.
-
Computational modelling to characterise the spatial and temporal variation of quality indicators, diagnose and predict problems of loss of quality and define strategies for managing and restoring water quality in ...
-
Molecular ecology
-
Study of molecular markers, both nuclear and plastidial, for use as a tool in the establish of phylogenies, and population studies of fungi species and, especially, of vascular plants.
-
Development of new forms of representation in the EcoLexicon knowledge base that facilitate specialized knowledge acquisition. These forms of representation are based on theories of cognition that enhance technological application ...
-
A research line that runs perpendicular to the other research lines in the group and that deals with visualization of dynamics, processes, and urban-regional, environmental, and socioeconomic relations, supported by ...
-
New technologies for water treatment and for restoring aquatic ecosystems: adding magnetic particles. -
Numeric and analytical models of sediment transport in the atmosphere and in river and sea beds.
-
The general purpose of this line of research is to optimise the general treatment system used at a seawater desalination facility using inverse osmosis from two convergent points of view ...
-
Dynamics, sources and drains. Implications in the carbon cycle.
-
Geometry, kinematics and evolution of large-scale structures, and study of the associated metamorphism, extensional collapse and formation of sedimentary basins.
-
Interpretation of fossil associations in their stratigraphic context, in terms of sequence stratigraphy and recognition of stratigraphic cycles. It applies both to corporeal fossils and to geochemical and chemostratigraphic traces ...
-
Historical description of aquatic systems and their basins by recording sediment fossils. Evaluating the effects of environmental changes on these systems.
-
This line of research is a continuation of the line of research on environmental history initiated more than 20 years ago, with a focus on the management of common goods ...
-
Seeks to understand the basic mechanisms of the formation and evolution of granitic magmas, the fundamental driver of continental crust evolution. Sources of heat, the dynamics of crystallization, and fractionation ...
-
Seeks to establish crust-destruction and -creation mechanisms in active (Caribbean) and fossil (Urals) subduction zones
-
Petrological and geochemical studies on the environmental conditions in which the gabbro-eclogite transition is produced, and its implications for the rheology of the subduction channel. Application to the rocks of ...
-
These outcrops offer an exceptional opportunity to study the factors that control the relationships of phases, the composition and evolution of the fluids, and the mechanical behaviour of the rocks ...
