PICO Session at EGU 2024

18/03/2024
| Fri, 19 Apr, 16:15–18:00 (CEST) PICO spot 4
Convener: Victor Vilarrasa | Co-conveners: Alba Zappone, Antonio Pio Rinaldi, Oriol Monserrat, Leo Eisner

PICO presentations are given in a hybrid format supported by a Zoom meeting featuring on-site and virtual presentations. The button to access the Zoom meeting appears just before the time block starts.

Objective: Presenting Interactive COntent (PICO) is an innovative type of presentation that combines the advantages of both oral and poster presentations in a short and concise (2-minute) format. Afterwards, the presenters have the opportunity to interact with the attendees and discuss their research. DCs will have the opportunity to present their initial research findings to an audience of geoscientists including environmentalists, hydrogeologists and geophysicists.

Programme: Experimental and numerical studies that tackle with cross-cutting subsurface energy challenges; multiscale investigations of geo-energy applications, such as CO2 sequestration, enhanced geothermal systems, nuclear waste disposal and subsurface energy storage; advances in the state-of-the-art in the understanding of the coupled THMC processes induced by these geo-energy applications; developments in ground deformation measurements using geomatic applications; characterization, prediction and understanding of triggering mechanisms of induced seismicity; experimental activities in dedicated subsurface field facilities that allow for focused in situ studies under controlled conditions at well-characterized locations.
