Sinkholes usually have a higher probability of occurrence and a greater genetic diversity in evaporite terrains than in carbonate karst areas. This is because evaporites have a higher …
A geophysical survey routine is proposed to detect underground cavities and dolines; it is based on the sequential application of magnetic, low-frequency ground penetrating radar …
Detection, forecasting, early warning, and effective monitoring are key aspects for the delimitation of sinkhole-prone areas and for susceptibility assessment and risk mitigation. To …

In Segovia Province, Spain, there are numerous carbonate rock outcrops that are affected by karstification processes, in which there are numerous galleries, caves and sinkholes. This is …
Multiple sinkhole susceptibility models have been generated in three study areas of the Ebro Valley evaporite karst (NE Spain) applying different methods (nearest neighbour distance …
This paper explores the suitability and advantages of combining the trenching technique with geophysical surveys [ground penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity …
In Spain, evaporite outcrops cover approximately 7% of the total area of the country. Most of the evaporitic formations are made up of Ca-sulfates (gypsum/anhydrite) or Ca-sulfates and …
A detailed sinkhole map has been produced in a stretch of the Ebro Valley (40.8 km2) including the western sector of Zaragoza city (NE Spain). During the last few decades …
Abstract Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) has been applied to detect and measure ground deformation in a stretch of the Ebro River valley (Spain) …
