If you work on pore-scale experiments, modeling, or theory development, please consider submitting to our session this AGU!
Do you work on pore-scale physics and plan to attend AGU in DC this year? Consider submitting an abstract to our pore-scale physics session!

Artur's paper on an operando SEM platform that allows, for the first time, direct observation of dynamic fluid-mineral interactions at the nanoscale is out now! This platform opens the door to elucidating interfacial phenomena under realistic conditions pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Arti…

David's paper elucidating a previously unknown mechanism of capillarity-driven reaction-imbibition process that controls the rate of CO2 clathrates formation is out now! Here, he uses micromodels to see inside ocean sediments during CO2 storage! link.springer.com/article/10…

Excited to start working on this with our collaborators at @UCLA and @PNNLab!
Today, ARPA-E announced 16 projects across 8 states selected to receive $20M to explore technologies related to geologic hydrogen stimulation and reservoir management. You can read more about the 16 projects selected here: bit.ly/3OEcXPk.
