Her early career research involved the study of tectonics and sedimentation in the Southern Pyrenees during the Mesozoic rifting and subsequent orogenic inversion. Since joining BGS, Laura has been involved in mapping and modelling projects in the sedimentary basins of the UK, aimed at improving the understanding and characterisation of the structure affecting principal aquifers (Chalk, Fell Sandstone, Middle Jurassic Oolites) and other key stratigraphic units (Upper Jurassic clays).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sea-background-f\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"content-menu\"><li class=\"active\"><h5><a href=\"#tabs-1\">Biography<\/a><\/h5><\/li><li ><h5><a href=\"#tabs-2\">Research<\/a><\/h5><\/li><li ><h5><a href=\"#tabs-3\">Publications<\/a><\/h5><\/li><li ><h5><a href=\"#tabs-4\">Skills &amp; qualifications<\/a><\/h5><\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container tabs-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\" id=\"tabs-1\"><div class=\"col-12\"><p><strong>Laura Burrel&#8217;s Biography<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"content-list\">\n<li>2021 \u2013 ongoing: Survey Geologist, British Geological Survey<\/li>\n<li>2016 \u2013 2020: PhD, Geology, Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona, Spain<\/li>\n<li>2014 \u2013 2015: MSc, Petroleum Geosciences, The University of Manchester, UK<\/li>\n<li>2010 \u2013 2014: BSc Geology, Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona, Spain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"row\" id=\"tabs-2\"><div class=\"col-12\"><ul class=\"content-list\">\n<li>Mapping and characterisation of the Yorkshire Wolds chalk aquifer, UK<\/li>\n<li>UK Stratigraphy &#8211; Characterisation and modelling of key stratigraphic units in the UK<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"row\" id=\"tabs-3\"><div class=\"col-12\"><p><strong>Key papers<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"content-list\">\n<li>Burrel, L, and Teixell, A. 2021.
