Comparing carbon sequestration in an oil reservoir to sequestration in a brine formation-field study [PDF]

, 2008
Geologic sequestration of CO2 in an oil reservoir is generally considered a different class than sequestration in formations which contain only brine. In this paper, the significance and validity of this conceptualization is examined by comparing the ...

Microscopic Analysis of Natural Fracture Properties in Organic-Rich Continental Shale Oil Reservoirs: A Case Study from the Lower Jurassic in the Sichuan Basin, China

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Natural fractures are of paramount importance in storing carbon in shale oil reservoirs, where ultra-low porosity and permeability necessitate their essentiality for enhanced oil recovery.

Conserved structural motifs in PAS, LOV, and CRY proteins regulate circadian rhythms and are therapeutic targets

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

3-D numerical modeling of methane hydrate deposits [PDF]

, 2011
Within the German gas hydrate initiative SUGAR, we have developed a new tool for predicting the formation of sub-seafloor gas hydrate deposits. For this purpose, a new 2D/3D module simulating the biogenic generation of methane from organic material and ...

Hydrocarbon influence on denitrification in bioturbated Mediterranean coastal sediments [PDF]

, 1997
An in situ experiment has been carried out inbioturbated Mediterranean coastal marine sediments (Gulfof Fos) in order to study the influence of hydrocarbons ondenitrification after 1, 4 and 6 months. In theabsence of hydrocarbons in the control sediments,

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Evaluation of Different Machine Learning Frameworks to Estimate CO2 Solubility in NaCl Brines: Implications for CO2 Injection into Low-Salinity Formations

Lithosphere, 2022
An accurate estimation of carbon dioxide (CO2) solubility in brine is of great significance for industrial applications such as quantifying CO2 sequestration in subsurface formations, CO2 surface mixing, and different CO2-based enhanced recovery methods (
