🧵 4/n Salt water basins are used to manage water resources in regions where the subsurface is characterised by high-salinity groundwater. Here marcodepaoli.com/2025/10/01/d... we provide an example.
Predicting dispersion of contaminants
Transport and dispersion of contaminants in the subsurface are common to many geophysical and industrial applications. How can we model these processes including dispersion and buoyancy?

🧵 3/n However, when the flow is driven #buoyancy forces induced by the contaminant itself, predictions may be uncertain. This is the case of salt dispersion from artificial lakes.

🧵 2/n #Transport and #dispersion of #contaminants in the subsurface are common to many geophysical and industrial applications, from the management of nuclear waste to the dispersion of chemicals and pollutants. Dispersion models to predict these scenarios exist, and are well developed.

🧵4/8 With this dataset, which we make freely available, we derive a simple, reliable and accurate physical model to describe the post‐injection dynamics of carbon dioxide. This model can be used to identify suitable sequestration sites or to design carbon dioxide injection strategies.

🧵3/8 We used massively parallelized numerical simulations to systematically investigate the flow dynamics in 3D systems and provide a robust quantification of the differences occurring with respect to ideal 2D systems.

🧵4/6 AFiD-Darcy is suitable to investigate different canonical flows. To show the code's capabilities, the maximal driving strength explored has been doubled as compared to state-of-art simulations, corresponding to an increase of the associated computational effort of about 8 to 16 times.
