EGU 2023- Fluid-rock interaction: Kickstarter of metamorphic, deformation
and geo-engineering processes (GMPV5.1 TS1 - EDI)
Reactions between fluids and rocks have a fundamental impact on many of the
natural and geo-engineering processes in crustal settings. Examples of such
natural processes are localization of deformation, earthquake nucleation
caused by high pressure fluid pulses, as well as metamorphic reactions and
rheological weakening triggered by fluid flow, metasomatism and
fluid-mediated mass transport. Moreover, the efficiency of many
geo-engineering processes is partly dependent on fluid-rock interactions,
such as hydraulic fracturing, geothermal energy recovery, CO2 storage and
wastewater injection. All our observations in the rock record are the
end-product of all metamorphic, metasomatic and deformation changes that
occurred during the interaction with fluid. Therefore, to investigate and
understand these complex and interconnected processes, it is required to
merge knowledge and techniques deriving from several disciplines of the
geosciences.
We invite multidisciplinary contributions that investigate fluid-rock
interactions throughout the entire breadth of the topic, using fieldwork,
microstructural and petrographic analyses, geochemistry, experimental rock
mechanics, thermodynamic modeling and numerical modeling.
