Hydrogeology and Environmental Geology

The activities developed within the "Hydrogeology and Environmental Geology" unit are mainly dedicated to the identification, characterization and quantitative and qualitative assessment of water resources.

T

he hydrogeological properties of both aquifers and low-permeability media are studied, at various scales, to calculate and model groundwater flows and contaminant transport. Applications in the field of Environmental Geology, impact studies and predictive studies are manifold.

Research topics :

• Energy and groundwater
• Groundwater characterization and modeling
• Groundwater-river interactions
• Aquifer vulnerability and protection
• Soil and groundwater contamination
• North-South cooperation
• Hydrogeological data management
