| Abstract | The subsurface geological environment, historically a key source of fossil and mineral resources, has seen a significant broadening of its potential applications in recent years, with increasing emphasis on its use for energy production and storage (Bauer et al. 2017; Kabuth et al. 2017). These topics have been the focus of previous thematic collections in EES,Footnote 1,Footnote 2 including geothermal energy systems (Huenges et al. 2013; Kühn et al. 2012; Kong et al. 2017), gas storage (hydrogen) (Böttcher et al. 2017; Kühn et al. 2012) and carbon capture and storage (Schütze et al. 2012; Dethlefsen et al. 2012; Zielinski et al. 2024; Chen et al. 2024b). A critical factor in utilizing subsurface space is ensuring the sustainability of management practices, with particular attention to the potential environmental impacts that may result (Kumar 2024; Suryawanshi et al. 2023; Liu et al. 2022; Stewart 2022). This issue has been addressed in a recent topical collection in Environmental Earth Sciences.Footnote 3 The current Topical Collection on Deep Geological Disposal places greater emphasis on the geotechnical aspects of geological disposal, with a particular focus on the safe isolation of hazardous materials, including radioactive waste.Footnote 4 The Topical Collection on Deep Geological Disposal covers both experimental (laboratory and in-situ) and theoretical studies of various geotechnical applications, such as geological disposal of radioactive or other materials, e.g. coal-based solid waste (Xia et al. 2024), carbon dioxide sequestration in fractured reservoirs (Chen et al. 2024a) and brine solutions (Dehaghani et al. 2023), but also aspects of uranium mining (Yang et al. 2023). |
