LINES OF RESEARCH

The specific lines of research that the group has been developing are the following:

Basin evolution: sequential analysis

Single and multichannel seismic stratigraphy.
Detection and characterization of shallow gas by means of geophysical and direct sampling techniques: identification of gas accumulations and/or gas escapes. Climatic-environmental implications.
Paleoenvironmental reconstructions.
Historical geology.
Climatic changes.
Anthropogenic changes.
Sea level changes.

Analysis of basin-fill sediments

Sedimentary units.
Sedimentary unconformities.
Ages of the units.
Mapping in continental environments: field techniques.
Marine mapping by geophysical techniques: Current seabed mapping: Side Scan Sonar and Multibeam Echo Sounder; Multibeam Backscatter processing for surface sediment characterization; Mapping of sedimentary bodies; Isopaque maps of sedimentary units; Mapping of gas accumulations and escapes; Depth contour mapping  of gas accumulations.
3D stratigraphic architecture.
