Radon potential, geologic formations, and lung cancer risk
OBJECTIVE Exposure to radon is associated with approximately 10% of U.S. lung cancer cases. Geologic rock units have varying concentrations of uranium, producing fluctuating amounts of radon. This exploratory study examined the spatial and statistical associations between radon values and geological formations to illustrate potential population-level lung cancer risk from radon exposure. METH...
متن کاملData assimilation for transient flow in geologic formations via ensemble Kalman filter
Formation properties are one of the key factors in numerical modeling of flow and transport in geologic formations in spite of the fact that they may not be completely characterized. The incomplete knowledge or uncertainty in the description of the formation properties leads to uncertainty in simulation results. In this study, the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) approach is used for continuously ...

متن کاملEvaluating variable switching and flash methods in modeling carbon sequestration in deep geologic formations using PFLOTRAN
PFLOTRAN a massively parallel computer code for modeling coupled hydro-thermalchemical processes in variably saturated, non-isothermal porous media is applied to sequestration of supercritical CO2 in deep geologic formations. Two different methods of solution to the governing partial differential equations are implemented referred to as variable switching and the flash approach. Variable switch...
متن کاملEstimating the boundary surface between geologic formations from 3D seismic data using neural networks and geostatistics
The exact locations of horizons that separate geologic sequences are known only at physically sampled locations (e.g., borehole intersections), which, in general, are very sparse. 3D seismic data, on the other hand, provide complete coverage of a volume of interest with the possibility of detecting the boundaries between formations with, for example, contrasted acoustic impedance. Detection of ...
