Capillary pinning and blunting of immiscible gravity currents in porous media

Gravity-driven flows in the subsurface have attracted recent interest in the context of geological carbon dioxide (CO[subscript 2]) storage, where supercritical CO[subscript 2] is captured from the flue gas of power plants and injected underground into deep saline aquifers. After injection, the CO[s...
