3D Reconstruction and Modelling of the Sierras Exteriores Aragonesas (Southern Pyrenees, Spain). Structural Evolution of the Pico del Águila anticline
This Thesis reports on the integration of different modelling techniques to construct a unified and better constrained conceptual model of structural evolution of the Pico del Águila anticline (External Sierras, Southern ...
3D seismic imaging and geological modeling of the Hontomin CO2 storage site, Spain
This thesis is organized as a compendium of three scientific articles, describing the geological characterization of the Hontomín site for Geological Storage of CO2 by means of 3D seismic data, acquired for this purpose, ...
A coupled CFD-DEM model for sand production in oil wells
During the oil recovery a hole is drilled, the sandstone is left unsupported next to the cavity and disloged sand grains can enter the oil recovery system. This process is called sand production and several problems may ...
A double-porosity formulation for the THM behaviour of bentonite-based materials
The thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) behaviour of expansive clays has been extensively studied in the last decades due to the potential use of bentonites as components of engineered barrier systems (EBS) in deep geological ...
A methodology to assess the combined effect of climate change and groundwater overexploitation over the Upper Guadiana basin, Spain
There is a growing concern about the combined effect of climate change and groundwater overexploitation on the availability of water resources in the Upper Guadiana basin (UppGb) in central Spain. General Circulation Models ...
A numerical formulation to solve the ALE Navier-Stokes equations applied to the withdrawal of magma chambers
La tesis presenta un algoritmo para la resolución de las ecuaciones de Navier-Stokes con acoplamiento mecánico en el contexto del método de los elementos finitos. La solución de la versión ALE de las ecuaciones de Navier-Stokes ...
Active tectonics in Northern Africa: The Nubia-Eurasia boundary in Tunisia
This PhD thesis presents a geological and geophysical study that characterizes the Quaternary stratigraphy, geomorphology, recent tectonics, and discusses their implications to understand the geodynamic evolution of North ...

En aquest treball he analitzat els indicadors d'activitat neotectònica de les Cadenes Costaneres Catalanes amb la finalitat de caracteritzar aquesta activitat.<br/><br/>La importància de la caracterització del context ...
Advanced exploitation of Sentinel-1 data for supporting landslide risk analysis
Satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (InSAR) and Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) are now consolidated tools for ground movement detection and monitoring. Sentinel-1 (S1) is the first satellite providing ...
Advanced GNSS-R instruments for altimetric and scatterometric applications
This work is the result of more than eight years during a bachelor thesis, a master thesis, and the Ph.D. thesis dedicated to the development of the Microwave Interferometric Reflectometer (MIR) instrument. It summarizes ...
Advanced image analysis techniques for laboratory experiments on soils
The understanding of soil behavior is the foundation where the geotechnical engineering is built on. Experimentation is essential to improve this comprehension, and then to be able to translate it into models, theories, ...
Advanced numerical techniques for inverse problems in geophysics
This thesis presents an efficient methodology to couple Model Order Reduction techniques within the framework of geophysical probabilistic inversion problems. Accurate models of the interaction between Earth inner processes ...
Advanced seismic methods applied to the study of snow avalanche dynamics and avalanche formation
Snow avalanches are extended moving sources of infrasonic and seismic energy. The acoustic and seismic wave fields generated by an avalanche is a complex natural phenomenon produced by the interaction of the flow with its ...
Advancement of methods for passive acoustic monitoring : a framework for the study of deep-diving cetacean
Marine mammals face numerous anthropogenic threats, including fisheries interactions, ocean noise, ship strikes, and marine debris. Monitoring the negative impact on marine mammals through the assessment of population ...
Advancing in the characterization of coastal aquifers : a multimethodological approach based on fiber optics distributed temperature sensing
Detailed characterization of coastal aquifers is essential for proper management of coastal groundwater resources, and coastal areas in general. Still, there is a general lack of systematic monitoring and detailed ...
Afloraments fracturats digitalitzats. Avaluació de tècniques remotes en models DFN i aplicació de Machine Learning
[cat] En l’actual transició digital, on es generen milions de dades cada dia, l’ús de tècniques remotes digitals i els processats amb tècniques de machine learning és cada cop més present i necessari, sense que l’àmbit de ...
Agradación fluvial en la llanura deltaica de Haslital (Alpes Suizos). Análisis de facies sedimentarias y modelización cronoestratigráfica
El delta de Haslital (12 km de largo, 1 km de ancho), en los Alpes Berneses, ha progradado en el lago Brienz tras la retirada progresiva del glaciar Aare después del Último Máximo Glacial. Los deltas formados en cubetas ...
Air Quality Modeling in Very Complex Terrains: Ozone Dynamics in the Northeastern Iberian Peninsula
Los altos niveles de contaminantes atmosféricos en el nordeste de la Península Ibérica tienen un fuerte impacto tanto en los ecosistemas como en la salud humana. Esta región es particularmente sensible a la contaminación ...
Albitization of the granitic basement of the Guilleries and Roc de Frausa Massifs (NE Spain) in relationship to the Permian - Triassic palaeosurface
The granitic basement below the Triassic unconformity in the Guilleries and Roc de Frausa massifs (NE Iberia), presents widespread red stained facies characterized by plagioclase albitization, biotite chlhoritization, ...
