Volcanic geology of the easternmost sector of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt, Mexico
This work presents the volcanic geology of the easternmost sector of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt, including the Serdán-Oriental basin and Cofre de Perote-Citlaltépetl volcanic range, two contrasting Quaternary volcanic fields.

Regional gravity of los humeros volcanic area
En el extremo este del Eje Volcánico Transmexicano se encontró una anomalía gravimétrica negativa. Tectónicamente, dicha anomalía parece corresponder a un hundimiento en el que han tenido lugar varias.

Outcrop analogue study to determine reservoir properties of the Los Humeros and Acoculco geothermal fields, Mexico [PDF]
The Los Humeros geothermal system is steam dominated and currently under exploration with 65 wells (23 producing). Having temperatures above 380 ∘C, the system is characterized as a super hot geothermal system (SHGS).

Production‐Induced Subsidence at the Los Humeros Geothermal Field Inferred from PS‐InSAR
Surface deformation due to fluid extraction can be detected by satellite‐based geodetic sensors, providing important insights on subsurface geomechanical properties. In this study, we use Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (DInSAR) observations to measure ground deformation due to fluid extraction at the Los Humeros Geothermal Field (

Gravimetric and morpho-structural analyses in the superhot geothermal system Los Humeros: an example from central Mexico [PDF]
The influence of deep and regional geological structures is becoming increasingly important in superhot geothermal systems due to their proximity to the transition between brittleness and ductility.

Preliminary 3-D geological models of Los Humeros and Acoculco geothermal fields (Mexico) – H2020 GEMex Project [PDF]
As part of the GEMex Project, an on-going European-Mexican effort to develop geothermal energy from non-conventional sources, preliminary geological models have been constructed for two sites located in the easternmost region of the Trans-Mexican ...

Fossil vs. active geothermal systems: A field and laboratory method to disclose the relationships between geothermal fluid flow and geological structures at depth [PDF]
Comparison between fossil and analogue active geothermal systems permit to obtain key-parameters to define a conceptual model of the area under exploration. The approach is based on structural, kinematic, and fluid inclusions analyses.

Compositional zonation in ignimbrites is relatively common, and is often inferred to record gradual withdrawal by an eruption of a density-stratified magma chamber (with silicic magma towards the top and more dense, mafic magma at the bottom). We show that this model does not match observations at the ca.
