Caprock integrity is one of the chief concerns in the successful development of a CO$_2$ storage site. In this chapter, we provide an overview of the permeability of fractured shale, the potential for mitigation of CO$_2$ leakage by…
We implement a procedure to simulate the drainage and imbibition in random, two-dimensional, square networks. We compute the resistivity index, the relative permeability, and the characteristic lengths of a correlated network at various…
We presented a general multi-physics model for shale gas flow in fractured systems, first the first time, with fully coupled thermal-hydraulic-mechanical (THM) properties. The impact of gas adsorption, real gas properties, gas flow in…
The decline of Mars' global magnetic field some 3.8-4.1 billion years ago is thought to reflect the demise of the dynamo that operated in its liquid core. The dynamo was probably powered by planetary cooling and so its termination is…
The starting point of the present review is to acknowledge that there are innumerable reports of non-seismic types of earthquake precursory phenomena that are intermittent and seem not to occur systematically, while associated reports are…
Quantitative methods are more familiar to most geophysicists with direct inversion or indirect inversion. We will discuss seismic inversion in a high level sense without getting into the actual algorithms. We will stay with meta-equations…
A multi-physics model for shale gas production in fractured system, that couples real gas property, nano-flow mechanism and geomechanics
A robust code, called Low-T Thermo, has been developed to combine low-T thermochronological data arbitrarily to model thermal history. After apatite fission-track age and confined length are decoupled into two completely independent data to…
Following the mid-Pleistocene transition, the dominant period of glacial cycles changed from 40 ka to ~100 ka. It is broadly accepted that the 40 ka glacial cycles were driven by cyclical changes in obliquity. However, this forcing does not…
Using f frequency instead of {\omega} frequency for earthquake magnitude computing is discussed.
The presence of undesirable dominating signals in geophysical experimental data is a challenge in many subfields. One remarkable example is surface gravimetry, where frequencies from Earth tides correspond to time-series fluctuations up to…
It is shown that using Carter leak-off is an oversimplification that leads to significant errors in the interpretation of DFIT data. Most importantly, this article reveals that previous methods of estimating minimum in-situ stress often…
Elastic anomalies produced by the spin crossover in ferropericlase have been documented by both first principles calculations and high pressure-temperature experiments. The predicted signature of this spin crossover in the lower mantle is,…
Forecasting fault failure is a fundamental but elusive goal in earthquake science. Here we show that by listening to the acoustic signal emitted by a laboratory fault, machine learning can predict the time remaining before it fails with…
The paper presents the implementation of algorithms for automatic search for signals scattered at meteor tracks based on the ISTP SB RAS EKB radar data. The algorithm is divided into two phases - the detection of a meteoric echo and the…
Roughly 40% of the Earth's total heat flow is powered by radioactive decays in the crust and mantle. Geo-neutrinos produced by these decays provide important clues about the origin, formation and thermal evolution of our planet, as well as…
Efficient assessment of convolved hidden Markov models is discussed. The bottom-layer is defined as an unobservable categorical first-order Markov chain, while the middle-layer is assumed to be a Gaussian spatial variable conditional on the…
The coupled evolution of the magnetic field and the flow at the Earth's core mantle boundary is modeled within the 1900.0-2014.0 time period. To constraint the dynamical behavior of the system with a core field model deriving from direct…
We use helium released during mechanical deformation of shales as a signal to explore the effects of deformation and failure on material transport properties. A dynamic dual-permeability model with evolving pore and fracture networks is…
Future sea-level rise drives severe risks for many coastal communities. Strategies to manage these risks hinge on a sound characterization of the uncertainties. For example, recent studies suggest that large fractions of the Antarctic ice…
