Artur Ionescu and dr. Giancarlo Tamburello conducted a field campaign in the Covasna region of Romania to investigate the natural degassing of deep CO\u2082 through mofettes and diffuse soil emissions. The article published by INGVambiente highlights the geological significance of the Transylvanian mofettes, the methodologies used to quantify diffuse CO\u2082 fluxes, and their importance for understanding deep geodynamic processes and the Earth&#8217;s carbon cycle. The study further emphasizes the exceptional value of the Eastern Carpathians as a natural laboratory for investigating deep fluid migration and tectonic degassing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
