Special section on “Geothermal”

After The Great Eastern Japan Earthquake, importance of domestic energy has been re-recognized in Japan. Especially, geothermal energy is expected as baseload power because of its stable electric supply nature. Japan is a volcanic country and have the third potential geothermal resources in the world, however, its plant capacity of the geothermal energy is only 10th. There are several causes of the low position, one explanation is high development risk arose from the difficulty of deciding the optimal position of the production wells because of the poor survey results. From the geophysical viewpoint, reasons of the low quality survey results are restriction of geophysical survey design and high complexity of subsurface structure because geothermal reservoirs are located in the mountainous areas in Japan. In order to reduce such risks and to manage the geothermal reservoirs, we should establish the methodology to understand geothermal energy systems by integrated interpretation of geophysical survey results. Recently, applications of geophysical surveys to geothermal heat pump development and EGS (Enhanced Geothermal system) fields are increasing. In these fields, advancement of geophysical survey methods are also required. Then we plan to have special section on “Geothermal” to discuss on the technical issues and solve these problems.

Submissionprocedure is the same as ordinary papers. Authors should notice their manuscript is for the special sections when they submit their manuscript.
