Who are we?
Welcome to the website of the HydroGeophysics Group (HGG). HGG is a strong and quite large research group at Department of Geoscience, Aarhus University, Denmark, working primarily with hydrogeophysics. The research covers many aspects of hydrogeophysics, instrument development, data collection, processing and inversion algorithms, software development, as well as integration of the geophysics results into geological and hydrological models.

| Jill Mikucki’s Antarctica study in the news Jill Mikucki, a microbiology assistant professor, was part of a team that detected extensive salty groundwater networks in Antarctica using a novel airborne electromagnetic mapping sensor system called SkyTEM. The hidden interconnected lakes could sustain life and shed light on ancient climate change. They also may provide the basis for future exploration of a subsurface habitat on Mars. The Washington Post featured Mikucki and the study in this article.
Numerous national and international media outlets also featured the research, including the ABC Science, Christian Science Monitor, Huffington Post, Discovery, Daily Mail, the Verge, New Scientist, Business Insider Australia, Business Standard, Yahoo! News, International Business Times, Irish Examiner, Science Mag, Phys.org, Silicon Republic, and Knoxville News Sentinel. | |
| Discovered deep under Antarctic surface: Extensive, salty aquifer and potentially vast microbial habitat Helicopter-borne instrument shows what lies beneath Antarctica's ice-free Dry Valleys. Using a novel, helicopter-borne sensor to penetrate the surface of large swathes of terrain, a team of researchers supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) has gathered compelling evidence that beneath Antarctica's ice-free McMurdo Dry Valleys lies a salty aquifer that may support previously unknown microbial ecosystems and retain evidence of ancient climate change.
