A reactive transport model for the geochemical response, detection and potential mitigation of CO2 leakage into a confined aquifer

Long-term storage of anthropogenic CO2 in the subsurface generally assumes that caprock formations will serve as physical barriers to upward migration of CO2. However, as a precaution and to provide assurances to regulators and the public, monitoring is used detect any unexpected leakage from the st...
