Additional information

Presents the first USA-wide estimate of geologic capacity for CO2 storage incorporating both pressure constraints and the fluid dynamics of CO2 migration and trapping. Selected as cover story of PNAS Vol. 109, Issue 14. Widely featured in the popular press, e.g., NY Times "Green" Blog (http://green.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/03/21/imagining-emissions-in-underground-exile/),

IEEE Spectrum (http://spectrum.ieee.org/energywise/green-tech/clean-coal/mit-study-finds-ample-room-in-united-states-to-store-co2),
