The EGU Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Petrology and Volcanology ECS committee is currently looking for early career scientists to present at and attend our monthly online talk series (EGU Campfires). The EGU Campfires are a free one-hour online seminar consisting of three 10-12-minute talks. These quick-fire presentations give you an opportunity to share your work in a relaxed and friendly environmen ...[Read More]
Geothermal resource development faces a major obstacle: the expensive exploration process. Unsuccessful drilled wells can discourage interest and disrupt economic plans. Understanding the relationship between geologic structures and geothermal fluid flow is critical to successful exploration. Various methods, such as geochemistry, geophysics, structural analysis and modeling, aim to create a relia ...[Read More]
How does a Geothermal system work? Heat is a form of energy and, strictly speaking, geothermal energy is heat from inside the Earth. The large amount of thermal energy enclosed below the earth’s surface derives in part from its primordial formation process and in part originates from the decay of radioactive isotopes present mainly in the earth’s crust and, secondarily, in the mantle. ...[Read More]
