Here, as well as in the coming five years back in Germany at the Helmholtz Centre Potsdam, she characterised deepest seating groundwaters in Archean cratons with innovative tracer techniques as well as gas emanations and gas transport triggered by mining activities in seismogenic depth. In 2007 she became head of a Reactive Transport department in a Helmholtz Centre Dresden-Rossendorf with focus on radiochemical tracer studies. Her successful grant acquisitions by then peaked in a EU project on raw materials under her coordination. Since 2017 she heads a research sub-division in the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources, BGR, with focus on experimental and numerical studies on THM coupled processes in clay and rock salt as well as geotechnical barriers. Since 2017 she is member of the NEA Clay Club.</p> </div> </div> </div><!-- .elementskit-card END --> <div class="elementskit-card "> <div class="elementskit-card-header" id="primaryHeading-11-d73970a"> <a href="#collapse-ffd7d5467465f54b7eaf" class="ekit-accordion--toggler elementskit-btn-link collapsed" data-ekit-toggle="collapse" data-target="#Collapse-ffd7d5467465f54b7eaf" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="Collapse-ffd7d5467465f54b7eaf"> <span class="ekit-accordion-title">Juan Carlos Mayor</span> <div class="ekit_accordion_icon_group"> <div class="ekit_accordion_normal_icon"> <!-- Normal Icon --> <i aria-hidden="true" class="icon-open icon-right icon icon-plus"></i> </div> <div class="ekit_accordion_active_icon"> <!-- Active Icon --> <i aria-hidden="true" class="icon-closed icon-right icon icon-minus"></i> </div> </div> </a> </div> <div id="Collapse-ffd7d5467465f54b7eaf" class=" collapse" aria-labelledby="primaryHeading-11-d73970a" data-parent="#accordion-67465f54b7eaf"> <div class="elementskit-card-body ekit-accordion--content"> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-5168" src="https://clayconference2024.de/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Mayor.webp" alt="" width="200" height="159" /></p><p><b>ENRESA, Spain</b></p><p>MSc in Civil Engineering (Stanford University, USA) and Mining Engineer (Madrid School of Mines, Spain).

She is an experimentalist, currently head of the Soil Mechanics Laboratory and of the research group on Thermo-hydro-mechanics and geochemistry of geomaterials. Her work has focussed on the characterization and assessment of behaviour of host rocks and barrier materials for the disposal of radioactive waste and has been carried out mainly in the framework of projects financed by the European Commission and by Enresa, the Spanish agency for nuclear waste management. She has been the leading scientist of CIEMAT in 11 national projects and 5 projects financed by the European Comission, and international collaborator in three projects financed by the Department of Energy (USA).<br />She has been member on the scientific committees of several national and international conferences, co-organised sessions in international conferences and given talks in more than forty international congresses. She is author of about 250 technical reports and 55 journal articles. She was included in the world ranking prepared by the Stanford University about the citation impact in 2021 and 2022. Recipient of the George Stephenson Medal in 2012 and of the Environmental Geotechnics Prize in 2020, both awarded by the Institution of Civil Engineers. In 2022 she was invited by the U.S. Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board to give her expert view on the influence of temperature on clay materials at a Hybrid Public Meeting.<br />Co-Editor-in-Chief of Applied Clay Science and Editorial Board member of Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment and Engineering Geology, where she was recognised as outstanding EB member in 2022.
