Carbon gas flux from the Dealul Melcului geological reserve (Corund, Romania). Recent studies have revealed the qualitative and quantitative importance of the free gas emanations from aqueous environments and from soil surfaces in Romania. Interesting mixing zones of different gases can be observed on the boundary between the Miocene sedimentary deposits and Late Miocene volcaniclastics. This study presents the results of investigations of free carbondioxide and methane made in Corund area (Harghita County), at Dealul Melcului geological reserve, where a presumed methane seepage was described in the past. Measurements were performed using a closed chamber method. Our observations and result show the lack of methane emanations, while the maximum value for carbon-dioxide emanation was 458 g/m 2 /day.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
