A geothermal reservoir causes inhomogeneity in the physical properties of the subsurface geology due to the high changes in temperature. These physical properties can be ob‐ served by means of varying anomalies from geophysical observations from the surface. These physical properties include electrical conductivity, rock density, magnetic suscepti‐ bility, rock elasticity, and, finally, the tem...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To examine the association of spatial variation in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) incidence and its putative environmental determinants in ground water such as total water hardness, the concentration of calcium, magnesium, fluoride, iron, copper, zinc, nitrate, and aluminium. DESIGN Small area study using Bayesian modelling and the geo-referenced data aggregated into 10 km ...

Drift compositional studies were initiated at the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) in the mid-1960's in projects that drew heavily on the technology and approaches developed in Fennoscandia over the previous century. As this research progressed and expanded in the 1970's, its Fennoscandian character diminished and, like the geochemical exploration research program that it closely paralleled, d...

A variety of regional geoscience datasets from Nova Scotia have been co-registered and analyzed using a geographic information system (GIS). The datasets include bedrock and surficial geological maps, airborne geophysical survey data, geochemistry of lake-sediment samples, and mineral occurrence data. A number of line features, including structural lineaments, fold axes and formation contacts, ...

Surface and Subsurface Geochemical Monitoring of an EOR-CO2 Field: Buracica, Brazil — This paper presents a surface and subsurface geochemical survey of the Buracica EOR-CO2 field onshore Brazil. We adopted a methodology coupling the stable isotopes of carbon with noble gases to investigate the adequacy of geochemical monitoring to track deep fluid leakage at the surface. Three campaigns of CO2...

The U.S. Geological Survey conducted an environmental assessment of 198 catchments in a 54,000-km area of central Colorado, much of which is on Federal land. The Colorado Mineral Belt, a northeast-trending zone of historical baseand precious-metal mining, cuts diagonally across the study area. The investigation was intended to test the hypothesis that degraded water and sediment quality are res...
