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.

We have detected water vapour in the hot Jupiter HD 209458 b in the near-IR.
Our significant H2O signal at 0.96–1.06 μm in HD...
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.
