Environmental Geology and Water Resources
The Environmental Geology and Water Resources research line arises from the need to address a wide range of critical issues affecting human well-being and ecosystems, training professionals to tackle these complex interactions. This research area enables work in the management, preservation, and protection of the environment and water resources, both surface and groundwater, across various domains.
Key focus areas include Environmental Impact Studies, Environmental Geochemistry, Natural and Toxicological Risks, Mine Waste Management, Dredging, Applied Environmental Geophysics, Medical Geology, Hydrodynamics of Unconfined and Confined Aquifers, Hydrogeology of Porous and Fractured Aquifers, Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Groundwater and Surface Water, Hydrochemistry, Coastal Dynamics, Hydro-sedimentology, and Geophysics Applied to Groundwater Prospecting, among other related topics.
