Changes in the deep subsurface microbial biosphere resulting from a field-scale CO2 geosequestration experiment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Subsurface microorganisms may respond to increased CO2 levels in ways that significantly affect pore fluid chemistry. Changes in CO2 concentration or speciation may result from the injection of supercritical CO2 (scCO2) into deep aquifers.
