Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We decided to investigate environmental recovery of the field experiment conducted in 2012 because the field observation of CO2 seepage in the real sea in the UK was cancelled. The numerical analysis method to detect the location and rate of CO2 seepage has been developed. Signal cable with electrodes with an electric resistivity of sea bottom sediment was developed, and showed that measurement of electric survey and electric self-potential survey can be applied as the monitoring technique of CO2 in the sediment. A long measurement substrate about a pH sensor and pCO2 sensor were developed, and the monitoring technique of subsea seepage CO2 was established from a mapping observation of pH/pCO2 and a vertical observation. It was cleared that the advection/diffusion of pore water is not a prim factor of CO2 disappearance after the stop of CO2 injection of the former CO2 release experiment.
