Coordinator: Dr. José Antonio Peláez Montilla (japelaez [arroba] ujaen [punto] es) |
The research group is specialized in the study of lithospheric tectonic processes, seismicity and the relationship between them, essentially, but not only, in the domain of the Baetic System, the Guadalquivir Depression and North Africa. Another line of specialization refers to the study of seismic hazard, including site effects based, among others, on current seismicity behavior, historical seismicity and archaeoseismicity.
In performing its research function, the group has Güralp 6TD broadband seismic stations, 12-channel Geometrics SmartSeis seismic equipment, Geometrics G-857 proton magnetometer/gradiometer and the georadar Malå Geoscience Proex System with 500, 250 and RTA-50 MHz antennas.
