We provide technical support in hydrogeological and geophysical analysis, employing advanced technologies and reinterpreting results to offer precise perspectives.
Advanced studies in hydrogeology and geophysical prospecting
Hydrogeology, a highly relevant applied science, delves into a comprehensive study of groundwater, exploring its origin, characteristic flows, geological implications, state, properties, and potential utilization. This research field reveals the intricate interaction between groundwater and the surrounding geology, offering a detailed perspective for sustainable management of this vital resource.
On the other hand, geophysics, also an applied science, focuses on the structure, physical conditions, and historical evolution of the subsurface from an advanced physical perspective. The application of specialized methods, such as wave reflection and refraction, along with techniques based on gravity, electromagnetic, magnetic, and electrical fields, provides a profound understanding of subsurface composition and dynamics, significantly contributing to scientific knowledge and decision-making in various fields.
