    The explosive volcanism of Teide-Pico Viejo volcanic complex, Canary Island 

    García Pérez, Olaya (Date of defense: 2013-11-04)

    The explosive events in Teide Pico Viejo (TPV) complex in Tenerife Island (Spain) have traditionally been restricted to the subplinian eruption of Montaña Blanca, which occurred about 2000 years ago. A recent revision of ...

    The structure and formation of the Tyrrhenian basin in the Western Mediterranean back-arc setting = Formación y estructura de la cuenca del Tirreno en el contexto de retrarco del Mediterráneo Occidental 

    Prada Dacasa, Manuel (Date of defense: 2014-01-17)

    In this thesis I present a geophysical study that aims to define the structure and petrological nature of the main geological domains in the Central Tyrrhenian basin, and to investigate the mechanisms involved in their ...

    The transition between thin-to-thick-skinned styles of deformation in the Western Pyrenean Belt 

    Carola i Molas, Eloi (Date of defense: 2014-07-02)

    This PhD Thesis describes the kinematics of the Burgalesa Platform in the Basque-Cantabrian Pyrenees by the integration of i) surface geology; ii) seismic and well data; and iii) vertical axis rotation paleomagnetic studies. ...

    Tidewater glacier flow of Helheim Glacier, Greenland, 2006-2008, using high-rate GPS 

    Juan Verger, Julia de (Date of defense: 2011-03-14)

    This thesis presents a study of the application of Global Positioning System (GPS) techniques to the study of the dynamics of Helheim Glacier, one of the fastest-flowing outlet glaciers in the world, located on the southeast ...

    Tomografia elèctrica a escala de laboratori: investigació del sistema roca-salmorra-CO(2) 

    Bosch Ros, David (Date of defense: 2015-03-20)

    La captura i emmagatzematge geològic de CO2 es considera una opció viable per a la reducció de les emissions netes d’aquest gas a l’atmosfera terrestre. El procés consisteix a separar el CO2 de la resta de gasos generats ...

    Velocitat de desplaçament de la falla d’Alhama de Murcia (Bètiques Orientals); implicacions en el seu potencial sísmic 

    Ferrater Gómez, Marta (Date of defense: 2016-10-24)

    La caracterització de les falles actives, inclús d’aquelles que tenen un moviment moderat-lent (< 5 mm/a), és un requeriment per a poder mitigar el risc sísmic d’una regió. En aquesta tesi es calculen els paràmetres sísmics ...

    Visualització sísmica mitjançant tècniques tomogràfiques 

    Flecha Lacalle, Isaac (Date of defense: 2012-12-20)

    El coneixement del subsòl sempre ha estat objecte d’interès per diversos motius. La disponibilitat de recursos naturals (minerals, aigua, hidrocarburs...), l’obra civil, el vulcanisme o la sismicitat són factors que ...

    Volcanic hazard assessment in monogenetic volcanic fields 

    Bartolini, Stefania (Date of defense: 2014-10-06)

    One of the most important tasks of modern volcanology, which represents a significant socio-economic implication, is to conduct hazard assessment in active volcanic systems. These volcanological studies are aimed at hazard ...
