The 1st Edition of Geophysics and the Energy Transition, edited by Malcolm Wilson, Tom Davis, and Martin Landro, provides detailed analysis of subsurface site selection, characterization, and monitoring technologies for carbon storage projects. Published by Elsevier in 2024, this 550-page volume systematically outlines fundamental geophysical methodologies essential for managing safe long-term underground storage operations.

Beyond carbon sequestration, the volume examines how geophysical techniques apply to alternative energy systems. Specific coverage details exploration methods for natural hydrogen resources and geothermal energy projects. Practical case studies illustrate real-world site evaluations and operational field workflows for engineers and geoscientists working across the modern energy sector.

The book supports energy industry professionals who require verified technical tools for site characterization. Additionally, the material assists graduate students and active researchers in geophysics, geology, and petroleum engineering who analyze geological storage mechanics and clean energy subsurface infrastructure.
