A thermodynamic approach to water geothermometry

A thermodynamic approach to water geothermometry / Roberto Cioni, Luigi Marini.

This book explores water geothermometry, a highly relevant topic in the exploration and exploitation of geothermal energy. Presenting theoretical geothermometers and indicators of CO2 fugacity, it describes a rigorous new approach entirely based on thermodynamics. The book will appeal to geothermal...
