Numerical modelling solutions for the migration and trapping of Natural H2 in sedimentary basins
Storage of CO2 in geological formations depends on a combination of physical and chemical mechanisms such as physical trapping below caprocks or trapping by dissolution in groundwater. The most effective storage mechanism is the permanent mineralisation of CO2 by conversion into carbonate minerals (Benson et al. , 2005).
Seep biogeochemistry & organic geochemistry
A major aim of reactive flow models in CCS activities is to understand and predict the evolution of the CO2 plume injected in the reservoir for planning and monitoring purposes (e. g. Jenkins et al. , 2015).

This unusual hopane-like compound is recognised together with the hopanes in the m/z 191 mass chromatogram and was for many years used as a biomarker of hypersalinity due to its common high abundance in sediments deposited under such conditions. However, a key paper by Sinninghe-Damsté et al.
