The Geomarine Sciences group realizes multidisciplinary studies on continental margins and marine basins, analyzing processes that interplay in the dynamics of the Earth System and in its relationship with Global Change. It integrates research on Geology, Geophysics, Geochemistry and Biogeochemistry in marine environments and includes offshore-onshore correlations. Research topics on basic science aim the study of relationships between the deep processes which affect the lithosphere and the external processes which make conditional the morphology, environment and climate on the Earth surface.

The research group brings together researchers dedicated to the study of the processes of formation and evolution of the crust and upper mantle and oceanic continental, through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates the field petrological, geochemical, geochronological, metallogenetic studies.

Research in this department investigates natural and engineered mineral processes on the surfaces of Earth and other planetary bodies. Employing a combination of field studies, laboratory experiments, and computational modeling, our work integrates mineralogy, (bio)geochemistry, planetary science, and physical chemistry to elucidate the mechanisms governing mineral formation and their interactions with the surrounding environment.

The Laboratory of Crystallographic Studies is dedicated to the study of nucleation and growth of crystals from dissolution. The laboratory uses the knowledge generated by these fundamental studies in the design and optimization of applied processes for obtaining crystals as well as for understanding the processes of crystallization, crystalline aggregation and pattern formation in natural and technological environments. The research developed in the laboratory combines fundamental and applied science with a strong dissemination and didactic component.

The Stable Isotope Biogeocheistry group is a multidisciplinary group composed of geologists, chemists, biologists, environmentalists and archaeologists, which focuses on the study of the isotopic traceability of essentials elements in terrestrial biogeochemical cycles.Our research, allows assessing accurately the interaction between geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere over the Earth's history.

The adoption of the so-called Open Science increases and diversifies both the actors generating research activity and third parties that may be the object of impact studies (scientific, social, economic, environmental, political) of such activity. The description, analysis, and understanding of an increasingly complex system require an interdisciplinary approach that combines the experience of metric studies and the methodological knowledge of the qualitative approach.
