Headwater catchments are the fundamental units that connect the land to the ocean.
Hydrological flow and biogeochemical processes are intricately coupled, yet their respective …

Geochemistry plays an important role when assessing the impact of CO2 storage. Due to the
potential corrosive character of CO2, it might affect the chemical and physical properties of …

Earth's temperature is thought to be regulated by a negative feedback between atmospheric
CO2 levels and chemical weathering of silicate rocks that operates over million-year time …

Heterogeneity can be dealt with by defining homogeneous equivalent properties, known as
averaging, or by trying to describe the spatial variability of the rock properties from geologic …

This study explores the dynamics of porosity and reactive surface area changes during
porous limestone dissolution by CO2-rich water. The Sr and Ca concentrations in both the …

The field of reactive transport modeling has expanded significantly in the past two decades
and has assisted in resolving many issues in Earth Sciences. Numerical models allow for …

Limestone dissolution by CO _2 CO 2-rich brine induces critical changes of the pore network
geometrical parameters such as the pore size distribution, the connectivity, and the tortuosity …

The recent profusion of microscopic characterization methods applicable to Earth Science
materials, many of which are described in this volume (Anovitz and Cole 2015, this volume; …

Widespread implementation of geological storage of CO2 requires an understanding of
dissolution reactions with formation minerals. This will be aided by reactive transport …

Fractures are ubiquitous and important features in the Earth subsurface (Berkowitz 2002;
Pyrak-Nolte et al. 2015). They are created as a result of rock failure when the critical stress …
