A soil moisture accounting-procedure with a Richards' equation-based soil texture-dependent parameterization (2014)
Journal Article
Mathias, S., Skaggs, T., Quinn, S., Egan, N., Finch, L., & Oldham, C. (2015). A soil moisture accounting-procedure with a Richards' equation-based soil texture-dependent parameterization. Water Resources Research, 51(1), 506-523. https://doi.org/10.1002/2014wr016144

Given a time-series of potential evapotranspiration and rainfall data, there are at least two approaches for estimating vertical percolation rates. One approach involves solving Richards' equation (RE) with a plant uptake model. An alternative approa...

Heat transport and pressure buildup during carbon dioxide injection into depleted gas reservoirs (2014)
Journal Article
Mathias, S., McElwaine, J., & Gluyas, J. (2014). Heat transport and pressure buildup during carbon dioxide injection into depleted gas reservoirs. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 756, 89-109. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2014.348

In this article, a two-layer vertical equilibrium model for the injection of carbon dioxide into a low-pressure porous reservoir containing methane and water is developed. The dependent variables solved for include pressure, temperature and $\def \xm... Read More about Heat transport and pressure buildup during carbon dioxide injection into depleted gas reservoirs.

Dynamic modelling of a UK North Sea saline formation for CO2 sequestration (2014)
Journal Article
Watson, F., Mathias, S., Daniels, S., Jones, R., Davies, R., Hedley, B., & van Hunen, J. (2014). Dynamic modelling of a UK North Sea saline formation for CO2 sequestration. Petroleum Geoscience, 20(2), 169-185. https://doi.org/10.1144/petgeo2012-072

Preliminary dynamic modelling, using TOUGH2/ECO2N, has been carried out to assess the suitability of a site in the UK North Sea for sequestering CO2. The potential storage site is a previously unused saline formation within the Permian Rotliegend san... Read More about Dynamic modelling of a UK North Sea saline formation for CO2 sequestration.
