| Summary: | "Seals and caprocks are an essential component of subsurface hydrogeological systems, guiding the movement and entrapment of hydrocarbon and other fluids. 'Geological Carbon Storage: Subsurface Seals and Caprock Integrity' offers a survey of the wealth of recent scientific work on caprock integrity with a focus on the geological controls of permanent and safe carbon dioxide storage, and the commercial deployment of geological carbon storage. Volume highlights include: Low-permeability rock characterization from the pore scale to the core scale; flow and transport properties of low-permeability rocks; fundamentals of fracture generation, self-healing, and permeability; coupled geochemical, transport and geomechanical processes in caprock; analysis of caprock behavior from natural analogues; geochemical and geophysical monitoring techniques of caprock failure and integrity; potential environmental impacts of carbon dioxide migration on groundwater resources; and carbon dioxide leakage mitigation and remediation techniques. 'Geological Carbon Storage: Subsurface Seals and Caprock Integrity' is an invaluable resource for geoscientists from academic and research institutions with interests in energy and environment-related problems, as well as professionals in the field. |
