Can you take the heat? – Geothermal energy in mining [PDF]

, 2014
In 2013, there are less than 20 documented examples of operational geothermal systems on mine sites worldwide. This is surprising, since on remote mine sites, where fuels may have to be shipped in over great distances, heating and cooling from low ...

Groundwater Microbial Diversity Associated With Icelandic Basaltic Subsurface Environments. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Overview of microbial diversity and environmental drivers in Icelandic deep basaltic aquifers. Using 16S rRNA gene metabarcoding across 22 geothermal wells spanning broad temperature, pH, and bedrock‐age gradients, the study reveals distinct bacterial and archaeal community structures shaped by temperature, pH, and host‐rock reactivity.

A Review of the Performance of Minewater Heating and Cooling Systems

Energies, 2021
As the decarbonisation of heating and cooling becomes a matter of critical importance, it has been shown that flooded mines can provide a reliable source of low-carbon thermal energy production and storage when coupled with appropriate demand via an ...

The long‐term legacy of subvolcanic intrusions on fluid migration in sedimentary basins: The Cerro Alquitrán case study, northern Neuquén Basin, Argentina

Basin Research, 2023
Cooling subvolcanic igneous intrusions are known to have a substantial impact on fluid flow in the shallow Earth's crust, for example activation of geothermal systems, circulation of mineralized fluids in ore deposits, fast maturation of organic matter ...

Digitalization of Legacy Datasets and Machine Learning Regression Yields Insights for Reservoir Property Prediction and Submarine-Fan Evolution: A Subsurface Example From the Lewis Shale, Wyoming

The Sedimentary Record, 2022
Machine-learning algorithms have long aided in geologic property prediction from well-log data, but are primarily used to classify lithology, facies, formation, and rock types.

Culture Shock: the legacy of the 1960s power generation schemes in Aotearoa New Zealand

Architectural History Aotearoa, 2022
In 1960s Aotearoa New Zealand the response to a post war energy shortage was to look to the country's rivers, lakes, and geothermal areas as a source of electric power. The Ministry of Works began a programme of dam building which peaked in the 1960s and

Salinity Contributions from Geothermal Waters to the Rio Grande and Shallow Aquifer System in the Transboundary Mesilla (United States)/Conejos-Médanos (Mexico) Basin

Water, 2021
Freshwater scarcity has raised concerns about the long-term availability of the water supplies within the transboundary Mesilla (United States)/Conejos-Médanos (Mexico) Basin in Texas, New Mexico, and Chihuahua.

Impact of volcanism on the sedimentary record of the Neuquén rift basin, Argentina: towards a cause and effect model [PDF]

, 2018
The analysis of volcano-sedimentary infill in sedimentary basins constitutes a challenge for basin analysis and hydrocarbon exploration worldwide. In order to understand the contribution of volcanism to the sedimentary record in rift basins, we study the

Unravelling the relative contributions of climate change and ground disturbance to subsurface temperature perturbations: Case studies from Tyneside, UK [PDF]

, 2016
When assessing subsurface urban heat islands (UHIs) it is important to distinguish between localized effects of land-use change and the impacts of global climate change. However, few investigations have successfully unraveled the two influences.

Ecology of common bully (Gobiomorphus cotidianus) in the Tarawera and Rangitaiki rivers: isolation by inland distance or anthropogenic discharge? [PDF]

, 2009
Previous research has identified distinct genetic, life-history and reproductive differences between populations of common bully (Gobiomorphus cotidianus) upstream and downstream of a pulp and paper mill outfall on the Tarawera River in the Bay of Plenty,
