Hydrocarbons in subsurface nanoporous media, such as shale, are promising energy
resources to compensate for the shortage of conventional reservoirs. Pore-network …

This paper reviews recent developments on the cleat-scale characterisation of coal. Novel
micro-CT imaging and image calibration methods are described. The application of micro …

Toxic organic contaminants may enter the subsurface as slightly soluble and volatile
nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) or as dissolved solutes resulting in contaminant plumes …

Microbial communities inhabiting soil aggregates dynamically adjust their activity and
composition in response to variations in hydration and other external conditions. These …

This study introduces PoreFlow, a pore-network modeling tool capable of simulating fluid
flow and multi-component reactive and adsorptive transport under saturated and variably …

In this study, we develop a lab-on-a-chip approach to study pore-scale salt precipitation
dynamics during CO2 sequestration in saline aquifers—a challenge with this carbon …

Structural features of porous materials such as soil define the majority of its physical
properties, including water infiltration and redistribution, multi-phase flow (eg simultaneous …

The constantly changing soil hydration status affects gas and nutrient diffusion through soil
pores and thus the functioning of soil microbial communities. The conditions within soil …

Macro-scale models of coupled free flow and flow through a permeable medium often lack
the capabilities to account for process-relevant complexities on the pore scale. Direct …

A modular pore-scale model is developed to assess the response of wellbore cement to
geological storage of CO2. Numerical formulations for modeling of solute transport are …
