Descripción:Since 1979, the Center for Geophysical Research (CIGEFI) of the University of Costa Rica (UCR) has constantly evolved to become a regional reference in geophysics. This has been facilitated by different actors, researchers, and collaborators, both their own and those of other affiliations. The objective of this work was to use the publications elaborated by CIGEFI to describe and visualize the social networks of this process between 1979-2015, showing the actors involved, the most influential ego-networks, the evolution of the networks in three periods (1979-1990, 1991-2002 and 2003-2015), for easier processing of information, and affiliations. The centrality measures of degree, proximity, distance and mediation were calculated, and five network debuggings of each network were carried out; in each one, one to five relationships and actors in each were eliminated. It was concluded that networking was fundamental for CIGEFI, since it allowed the integration of a team and an approach between different disciplines, key in the research and decision making processes.
