A Comparative Study of Deep Learning Models for Geological Carbon Sequestration
Giovanni Zingaro, Robert Gracie, Yuri Leonenko
Numerical reservoir simulations are extremely computationally expensive, as they require the repeated solution of large nonlinear algebraic systems derived from the discretized gov…
Structuring Collective Action with LLM-Guided Evolution: From Ill-Structured Problems to Executable Heuristics
Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Graham Alexander Watt, Yuri Leonenko +1
Collective action problems, which require aligning individual incentives with collective goals, are classic examples of Ill-Structured Problems (ISPs). For an individual agent, the…
BoreaRL: A Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning Environment for Climate-Adaptive Boreal Forest Management
Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Enoch Ofosu, Daniel Chukwuemeka Amaogu +5
Boreal forests store 30-40\% of terrestrial carbon, much in climate-vulnerable permafrost soils, making their management critical for climate mitigation. However, optimizing forest…
Boreal Afforestation's Underestimated Cloud Influence on Earth's Energy Imbalance
Enoch Ofosu, Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Daniel Chukwuemeka Amaogu +5
Earth's Energy Imbalance (EEI) is accelerating, partly due to declining planetary albedo from reduced cloud cover. Boreal afforestation can either mitigate or exacerbate this trend…
Bridging Farm Economics and Landscape Ecology for Global Sustainability through Hierarchical and Bayesian Optimization
Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Graham Alexander Watt, Yuri Leonenko +1
Agricultural landscapes face the dual challenge of sustaining food production while reversing biodiversity loss. Agri-environmental policies often fall short of delivering ecologic…
Climate benefits of afforestation and reforestation with varying species mixtures and densities in the north-western boreal lands
Enoch Ofosu, Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Daniel Chukwuemeka Amaogu +5
The boreal forest plays a crucial role as a global carbon sink. This study uses two 250-year simulations of Canada's Taiga Plains, an area targeted by the 2 Billion Trees Program t…
Carbon removal capacity estimation of taiga reforestation and afforestation at the western boreal edge using spatially explicit carbon budget modeling
Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Enoch Ofosu, Richard Boudreault +2
Canada's northern boreal forest edge offers considerable potential for climate change mitigation through large-scale tree planting. Afforestation in these sparsely forested regions…
Assessing the climate benefits of afforestation: processes, methods, and frameworks
Kevin Bradley Dsouza, Enoch Ofosu, Jack Salkeld +3
Afforestation greatly influences several earth system processes, making it essential to understand these effects to accurately assess its potential for climate change mitigation. A…
On the effect of boundary vibration on Mucus Mobilization
Abiola D. Obembe, Mohammad Roostaie, Richard Boudreault +1
In this study, we investigate the mobilization of mucus in a cylindrical tube of constant cross-section subjected to a Small Amplitude Oscillatory Shear (SAOS) assuming the viscoel…
Dispersion of a fluid plume during radial injection in an aquifer
Benjamin W. A. Hyatt, Yuri Leonenko
This study outlines a model for injected fluid flow in a vertically confined porous aquifer with mechanical dispersion. Existing studies have investigated the behaviour and geometr…
Analytical investigation of gas production from methane hydrates and the associated heat and mass transfer upon thermal stimulation employing a coaxial wellbore
M. Roostaie, Y. Leonenko
In this study, a radial 2D analytical approach has been developed to couple the wellbore heating process and the associated methane hydrate dissociation in the reservoir. A coaxial…
Gas production from methane hydrates upon thermal stimulation; an analytical study employing radial coordinates
M. Roostaie, Y. Leonenko
In this study, a radial analytical model for methane hydrate dissociation upon thermal stimulation in porous media considering the effect of wellbore structure has been developed.…
Modeling of Ex-Situ Dissolution for Geologic Sequestration of Carbon Dioxide in Aquifers
Federico Cao, Dmitry Eskin, Yuri Leonenko
Underground carbon dioxide () sequestration is considered to be one of the main methods to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In this technology, pure is injecte…
