TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the best aquifers for CO2 disposal onshore are the widespread Permo-Triassic sandstones, and further onshore potential exists in younger Mesozoic reservoirs.

TL;DR: In this paper, stable carbon isotope analysis of plant remains is used to infer water conditions, through the analysis of present-day crop plants grown at multiple locations across the Mediterranean and south-west Asia.
Abstract: Stable carbon isotope analysis of plant remains is a promising tool for researchers studying palaeoclimate and past agricultural systems. The potential of the technique is clear: it offers a direct measure of the water conditions in which plants grew. In this paper, we assess how reliably stable carbon isotope discrimination can be used to infer water conditions, through the analysis of present-day crop plants grown at multiple locations across the Mediterranean and south-west Asia. The key findings are that: (1) ∆¹³C, as expected, provides an indication of water conditions, (2) even for plants grown in similar conditions there is variation in ∆¹³C and (3) ∆¹³C may reflect crop water status for a period beginning well before the grain filling period. A new framework is presented which increases the robustness with which ∆¹³C values of plant remains can be interpreted in terms of the water conditions in which ancient crops grew.

TL;DR: The GeoCapacity project as mentioned in this paper is a GIS mapping of CO2 point sources, infrastructure and geological storage in Europe, and the main objective is to assess the European capacity for geological storage of CO 2 in deep saline aquifers, oil and gas structures and coal beds.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the stratigraphie and structural events associated with the early evolution of the Gregory Rift indicates that they are consistent with the active model of rifting, and the evidence for limited pre-rift uplift and morphologic and geochemical features of the early basalts and phonolite flood lavas support the intrusion of an asthenospheric plume into the lithospheric upper mantle during mid-Miocene times.
