[cat] L'estudi previ d'una part del contacte entre el Massís del Gaià i la fossa del Penedès (AMIGÓ, 1983) va donar com a resultat l'aportació d'una sèrie de dades referents a l'estructura i evolució cinemàtica de les ...
El estudio de muestras de pintura persigue diferentes objetivos. Por un lado, identificar los materiales y técnica de la pintura de una época y por lo tanto el know-how de un período histórico. Por otra parte, estudiar la ...
Monogenetic volcanism is characterized by a large diversity of eruptive styles, morphologies and deposits. Monogenetic landforms are the result of a complex merging of internal (magma composition, vesiculation) and external ...
The PhD entitled “Last 70kyr of Rano Aroi (Easter Island, 27ºS) peat record: New insights for Central Pacific paleoclimatology” presents an environmental and climate reconstruction of Easter Island during the last 70.000 ...
Studies have proven that the desired signal for Magnetotellurics (MT) in the electromagnetic (EM) field can be regarded as 'quasi stationary' (i.e. sufficiently stationary to apply a windowed Fourier transform). However, ...
The Taiwan thrust belt is generally thought to develop above a shallow, through-going basal detachment confined to within the sedimentary cover of the Eurasian continental margin. A number of data sets, however, such as ...
This dissertation is devoted to seismic tomography. I have implemented a new modelling tool for 3-D joint refraction and reflection travel-time tomography of wide-angle seismic data (TOMO3D). The reason behind this central ...
Dimethylsulfide (DMS) and its algal metabolite precursor, dimethylsulfoproprionate (DMSP), are major players in the oceanic and atmospheric sulfur cycle. DMS is the most abundant volatile organic sulfur compound in the ...
The Open Ocean has been recognized as playing a key role on global dynamics of pollutants due to its large coverage of the planet surface, its high degradation potential and its sink and accumulation capacities towards ...
La circulación oceánica de gran escala se encuentra relacionada con la pequeña escala a través de los procesos turbulentos, los cuales hacen posible el intercambio de energía cinética. Alrededor de la frecuencia de Coriolis, ...
At the end of the Miocene (5.97-5.33 Ma), the Mediterranean basins underwent deep morphological and sedimentological changes as a result of the large-scale sea-level fall during the so-called Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) ...
This thesis is focused in the processes that took place in the Tyrrhenian Sea, which is a Neogene basin belonging to the Western Mediterranean realm. Its formation is related with the subduction system of the African plate ...
The climate variability of the Iberian Peninsula (IP) can be explained in terms of relatively few large-scale atmospheric modes, such as the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), the East Atlantic (EA) and the Scandinavian ...
The controlled-source electromagnetics (CSEM) and magnetotellurics (MT) methods are common geophysical tools for imaging the Earth's electrical interior. To appreciate measured data, both methods require forward and inverse ...
In this work we present a geophysical study of three Western Mediterranean basins: Valencia Trough, Gulf of Lions and Algero-Balearic Basin. The work aims to define the tectonic structure, nature of the basement, and to ...
In this PhD thesis we present a geophysical study of the westernmost Mediterranean basin: the Alboran Basin. This basin is located between the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa, and it is surrounded by the Betics and Rif ...
The observational data recorded by the monitoring networks during El Hierro 2011-2012 volcanic unrest and eruption, allowed us to conduct a study of the volcanic eruptive phenomena with that wide view. The lack of previous ...
Los sistemas de rift en configuraciones volcánicas, se encuentran relacionadas con crecimiento de grandes edificios volcánicos y se definen como áreas de la corteza sometidas a esfuerzos extensivos que generan fracturas ...
El ambiente geotectónico en que se ubica Costa Rica, ha permitido el desarrollo de un arco volcánico activo, contexto geológico que favorece la formación de sistemas hidrotermales con potencial geotérmico; fuente de energía ...
The deep-sea red shrimp Aristeus antennatus is one of the main target species for bottom trawl fishery in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. In the Catalan region, this species is fished along the continental margin of a ...
