We are a group of scientists working at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía, a research centre of the Spanish Research Centre (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, CSIC). Our main research line is the study of the atmospheres of the planets of the Solar System under non-LTE conditions. We focalize our studies in the atmospheres of the Earth, Mars, Venus, Titan, and more recently, the exo-atmospheres. We have several collaborations with other research groups and institutions, working with data coming from international satellite missions.

Our results suggest that the middle atmosphere circulation on Titan extends well above the 500 km level, up to 750–800 km or even higher if we...
The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter’s main science mission began at the end of April 2018, just a couple of months before the start of the global dust...
The project aims at studying the water escape in Mars' atmosphere, both in present and in past conditions where the orbital parameters of Mars were different from those of today.
Jobs offered in this project:
- Two 2-year post-Doc positions
- A 4 years PhD grant
In this project we investigate several fundamental aspects of the Earth's atmosphere, and reinforce the emerging research line in our Group of exo-planetary atmospheres.
