Monogenetic volcanism represents the most common volcano type on Earth. The distribution of it depends in each case on their regional and local tectonic controls. The great variety of eruptive styles, ...
Noriega Salmón, Raquel (Date of defense: 2016-09-16)
In this thesis I have carried out a comprehensive study of the attenuation properties of the Earth´s crust of the Iberia-Morocco region (IMR). I have investigated the crustal attenuation by means of the ...

The African continent preserves a >3.7 Ga long geological record, which comprises stabilization of oldest crust in the Archean, late Proterozoic joining of first cratonic units that lead to the formation ...
Echeverria Moreno, Ana (Date of defense: 2015-05-22)
The eastern Betic Cordillera, south-eastern Spain, is one of the most seismically active area within the Iberian Peninsula. The Eastern Betic Shear Zone (EBSZ) in the Betic Cordillera absorbs part of ...
Buffett, Grant George (Date of defense: 2011-01-28)
Large scale global oceanic circulation redistributes heat and freshwater and therefore affects global climate. One of its main forcing mechanisms is, in addition to surface heat and freshwater fluxes, ...
