Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been proposed as a potential technology to mitigate climate change. However, there is currently a huge gap between the global CCS deployment and that which will be ultimately required. ...
Las rocas del Paleozoico del Priorat Central (Cadena Costera Catalana, NE de la Península Ibérica) han sido sometidas a un metamorfismo regional hercínico de grado muy bajo que alcanzó el límite entre la zona diagenética ...
En Angola afloran complejos carbonatíticos en todos los niveles de emplazamiento tanto plutónico, hipoabisal como volcánico. Recientemente, se han caracterizado en detalle algunos de estos complejos debido a las mineralizaciones ...
This PhD thesis examines the fracture-fluid interactions across different compressional structures affecting both Paleozoic basement and Mesozoic-Cenozoic cover lithologies in the Southern Pyrenees in order to investigate ...
Rare earth elements (REE) are known as the lanthanide series (La-Lu) plus yttrium (Y) and scandium (Sc). REE are essential materials for modern industries and especially for green technologies (wind turbines, batteries, ...
The availability of water resources is increasingly limited worldwide. Therefore, optimal and sustainable management is necessary to ensure a balance between ecosystems and human rights and activities. In the arid Central ...
Sewage sludge is a high volume, potentially toxic waste generated during the decontamination process of wastewater. Improved solutions for waste disposal require its conversion into an end product or at least a raw material ...
The complexity of the interplay between tectonics and sedimentation increases when salt tectonics is involved because of the ductility of salt and its ability to flow. Discrimination between extensional tectonics and ...
The worldwide persistence of nitrate (NO -) in groundwater is worrying since this compound has been related to human illnesses and to eutrophication of aquatic ecosystems. The main sources of pollution are linked to intensive ...
[eng] Deception Island (South Shetland Islands) is one of the most active volcanoes in Antarctica and has experienced over 20 explosive eruptive events in recent centuries. Recent eruptions in 1967, 1969, and 1970, as well ...
The south eastern Pyrenees allowed us to study the relationships between fluid flow and deformation in a complete section of a well-preserved fold and thrust belt. Furthermore, this study enables us to decipher the main ...
The Maimón and Los Ranchos formations in Central and Oriental Cordilleras, Dominican Republic, Hispaniola Island, are acknowledged to be representative of the most primitive tholeiitic magmatic series recorded in the Greater ...
Carbon tetrachloride (CT) and chloroform (CF) are chlorinated methanes (CMs) which have been released to the environment for decades owing to scarce waste management. Since they are dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs), ...
La presente tesis tiene como objetivos el desarrollo, aplicación, calibración y validación del uso de información geofísica para la gestión, la caracterización y el estudio de la vulnerabilidad a la contaminación de los ...
