“Tepid” Geysers above salt caverns

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mécanique, 2018
The formation of a brine geyser erupting from the wellhead of a large underground salt cavern is described. In most cases, the brine outflow from an opened cavern is slow; it results from the cavern creep closure and the thermal expansion of the cavern brine.

Systematic Approach for Carbonate and Volcanic Facies Classification Based on Textural and Structural Variations Observed in Brazilian Pre‐Salt Acoustic Image Logs

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 869-906, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Facies characterization in carbonate reservoirs remains challenging due to their pronounced textural and structural heterogeneity. Variations in grain packing, cementation, and diagenetic overprints produce contrasting acoustic responses in borehole image logs, often limiting the reproducibility of facies interpretation.

Life Cycle Environmental Impacts and Socio‐Economic Implications of Tidal Electricity Generation and Storage in the UK

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
If tidal electricity generation and storage replaced natural gas and battery storage by 2050, it could reduce the climate change impact of UK grid electricity by 71%, saving up to 4.4 Mt CO2 eq./y. Most other environmental impacts would be reduced by up to 24%. However, high costs and low public acceptability hinder its deployment. ABSTRACT Tidal range

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.
