DESCRIPTION:The risks associated with large-scale global warming coupled w
 ith the continued scale of human carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions has driven
  research in new mitigation strategies\, including the geological storage 
 of CO2 in deep saline aquifers.  Currently\, CO2 is injected in a number o
 f large field trials where it can be seen to rise and spread through porou
 s rock\, raising key questions about the feasibility of this emerging tech
 nology.  How far is CO2 likely to spread\, can it be trapped permanently\,
  and what are the risks of leakage? We'll explore these questions\, showin
 g how laboratory scale fluid models (and perhaps some live demonstrations)
  can help us interpret field scale industrial trials.
