Georadar studies who we are

Sergio Granucci explorando un Cenote.

We are a team that conducts georadar studies with more than 25 years of experience in subsurface research.

Georadar studies

Our experience encompasses:

  • Exploration of Underground Rivers, Cenotes, Dry Caves, Pit, Dolinas, Open Waters (Sea, Rios,Lagunas).
  • Underwater mapping specialized in caves.
  • Hydrology: graduates at the University of Salamanca (Spain).
  • Geophysics: diplomas such as Georadarists, data processing and data interpretation in Sweden.
  • Specialized in technical and commercial diving.
  • Studies georadar civil engineering.
  • Videography

Sergio Granucci has worked in the research and study of karst systems, specifically in the context of geology and geophysics. The term “karst” refers to a type of landscape formed from the dissolution of soluble rock, such as limestone, which gives rise to geological characteristics such as cenotes, caves, grottoes, wells, and chalk formations.

Sergio Granucci studies on karst systems include:

1. Karst Geology:

Analysis of the formation and evolution of karst landscapes, as well as their relationship with the surrounding geological structures.

2. Resource Exploration:

Study of how karst formations can influence the accumulation and flow of underground water resources, which is essential for the management and conservation of aquifers.

3. Research Methods:

Use of geophysical techniques, such as Georadar, to explore and characterize karst systems.

4. Environmental Impact:

Evaluation of how human development can affect karst ecosystems, which are often fragile and unique in their biodiversity.

5. Underground Flow Modeling:

Research on the behavior of water in karst systems, which can be very different from other types of landscapes due to its network of caves, cavern, channels and cavities.

Sergio Granucci has been involved in the exploration of underwater caves, a fascinating area of geological and speleological research. Underwater cave exploration combines diving techniques with geological studies to better understand these formations and their impact on local ecosystems.

Sergio Granucci works in this field include:

1. Cave Mapping:

Use of advanced technologies for the creation of accurate maps of underwater caves, including the use of photogrammetry and laser scanning.

2. Hydrogeological Study:

Research on how fresh and salt water interacts in karst systems, what types of hydrogeological flows exist and how they affect the quality of water in aquifers.

3. Ecology of Caves:

Analysis of the unique ecosystems that inhabit underwater caves, including endemic species and their adaptation to conditions of darkness and limited resources.

4. Anthropogenic Impact:

Evaluation of how human activities, such as tourism and mining, affect these formations and the ecosystems that depend on them.

5. Interdisciplinary Collaborations:

I work with biologists, ecologists, and other scientists to carry out integrated studies that address the conservation and sustainable management of these environments.

6. Technological Research:

Use of technologies such as underwater drones and other advanced exploration equipment to map and study cave systems that can be difficult to access.
