Catalogue of the Main Gas Manifestation of Greece: a Basis for Nationwide Estimations of Gas Hazard and Total Geogenic Gas Output View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Archivio istituzionale della ricerca - Università di Palermo Catalogue of the main gas manifestation of Greece: a basis for nationwide estimations of gas hazard and total geogenic gas output Calabrese S., Daskalopoulou K., Kyriakopoulos K., D’Alessandro W. 1) Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione di Palermo, Italy 2) Department of Geology & Geo-environment, National & Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece 3) Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra e del Mare (DiSTeM), University of Palermo, Italy Like other geodynamically active areas, Greece is affected by a large number of geogenic gas manifestations. These occur either in form of point sources (fumaroles, mofettes, bubbling gases) or as diffuse emanations. We produced a catalogue of the geogenic gas manifestations of Greece also considering few literature data. Collected samples were analysed for their chemical (He, Ne, Ar, O2, N2, H2, H2S, CO, CH4 and CO2) and isotopic composition (He, C and N). Geogenic gases, apart from having important influences on the global climate, could have strong impact on human health. Gas hazard is often disregarded because fatal episodes are often not correctly attributed. Geodynamic active areas release geogenic gases for million years over wide areas and the potential risks should not be disregarded. A preliminary estimation of the gas hazard has been made for the last 20 years considering the whole population of Greece. In this period at least 2 fatal episodes with a total of 3 victims could be certainly attributed to -8 CO2. This would give a risk of 1.3×10 fatality per annum. Such value, probably underestimated, is much lower than most other natural or anthropogenic risks. Gas output estimations are at present available only for a few of the gas manifestations. This catalogue will be basis for the estimation of the total geogenic gas output of Greece through extensive flux measurements.

  • HALT Penneast to FERC
    R. Steven Richardson 1776 K STREET NW September 12, 2016 202.719.7489 WASHINGTON, DC 20006 [email protected] PHONE 202.719.7000 www.wileyrein.com Kimberly Bose Secretary Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 888 First Street, NE Washington, D.C. 20426 Re: PennEast Pipeline Project’s Impacts on Drinking Water FERC Docket No. CP15-558 Dear Ms. Bose: I am writing on behalf of Homeowners Against Land Taking-PennEast (“HALT”). HALT represents over two hundred impacted landowners in towns along PennEast’s proposed pipeline route. HALT intervened in this proceeding on February 3, 2016. Its members are concerned that the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) does not accurately assess the risk of arsenic contamination from the proposed pipeline in groundwater, including landowners’ drinking water. It is well known that arsenic concentrations in water can lead to short-term and long-term health effects, including increased cancer risks, cardiovascular effects, numbness and burning sensations, nausea, and other health risks. HALT is alarmed that FERC has failed to consider these impacts on public health from the construction and operation of the pipeline, despite clear and uncontroverted evidence that the abundant concentrations of arsenic in the areas of New Jersey along the proposed pipeline likely will be mobilized by both construction and operation of PennEast’s pipeline. Although Section 4.1.5.5 of the DEIS provides superficial discussion of the risk that the pipeline would cause arsenic contamination of local water sources, the DEIS’s analysis of this risk is deeply flawed for multiple reasons. First, the DEIS relies on a defective study of arsenic contamination provided by PennEast (the Serfes Report).1 FERC must withdraw the DEIS and base its conclusions on an accurate study.

Guyot Science A Summary of the Research Progress and Accomplishments made by the Faculty Members of the Department of Geosciences Climate, biogeochemical cycles and planetary tectonics are the three basic processes that shape the Earth system. Geoscientists face a unique challenge in seeking to understand the complexity of the Earth’s physical and biogeochemical systems. The surface environment of the Earth is controlled by interactions between the deep Earth, the atmosphere, the hydrosphere and the biosphere. These interactions occur on timescales ranging from picoseconds for chemical reactions on particle surfaces to the billions of years over which plate tectonic processes and biological evolution have radically altered the composition of the atmosphere, and in space from nanometer to planetary scales. Princeton’s Department of Geosciences is at the forefront of scientific discovery in the solid earth, the environmental geosciences and oceanography/ climate science. Our faculty and students address critical societal issues, such as climate change and geo- logic hazards, through research and education at all levels. Our mission is to understand Earth’s history and its future, the energy and resources required to support an increasing global population, and the challenge of sustainability in a changing climate.

Our center will be a consortium composed of senior level investigators representing Indiana University, Princeton University, University of Tennessee, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National laboratory, University of Toronto, and the Lunar and Planetary Institute. We believe our expertise in subsurface ecosystems and our access to extraordinary analytical facilities and field sites will enable development of synergistic relationships with other biological, geological and planetary research in the NAI.

The program comprised thirteen hours of oral presentations, two hours of posters, and, most noteworthy, about five hours of discussions, over a three-day period from November 25th through the 27th, 2009. The topics cast a wide net, ranging from earth-based and space observations to their implications for potential geology and biology, from models and supporting laboratory measurements to future exploration of Mars.
