This is not just a field but part of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation’s (CSIRO) subsurface laboratory, where a world-first experiment was about to commence deep below the ground. Strathclyde researchers participated in a field experiment to inject CO2 into a geological fault zone and closely monitor its movement, as part of a programme that aims to develop low-carbon subsurface technologies, important for tackling climate change.
