ABSTRACT The performance of porous media, such as capillary water migration and permeability, is significantly influenced by the complexity of the pore structure. The pore complexity can be characterized by the fractal dimension of the pore structure (D f ${D}_{f}$) and the fractal dimension of pore tortuosity (D T ${D}_{T}$).

Impact of recent climate variability on an aquifer system in north Belgium [PDF]
The last decade it has been realised that climate and global change can (and very likely will affect) groundwater reserves. This will have impact on both the economical (groundwater exploitation) and ecological (ecosystems) aspects of aquifer systems.

Carbon Storage in Fold‐and‐Thrust Belts: An Overlooked Gigatonne Storage Opportunity
ABSTRACT This study presents numerical investigations of the trapping characteristics of fold‐and‐thrust belt structures, defining three carbon capture and storage (CCS) play types that could be used to store commercial volumes (millions of tonnes) of CO2.
