Large‐scale global adoption of carbon capture and storage (CCS) as a means of minimizing atmospheric CO₂ emissions requires an unprecedented effort to store gigatons of anthropogenic emissions in the earth's subsurface. Critical to the adoption and ultimate success of CCS is the protection of valuable water resources that may be impacted by leaking CO₂ from CCS operations. Therefore, appropriate technical tools and societal controls will need to be developed and evaluated to maximize the atmospheric benefits of CCS while limiting potential deleterious effects of its implementation. Here, we utilize a naturally leaking CO₂ system located at Soda Springs, Idaho, USA, as an analogue for industrial‐scale CCS deployment. This site is particularly relevant and useful for studying the consequences of CCS because it allows the examination of geologic systems at temporal and spatial scales not accessible by laboratory and field experiments.

使用环境示踪剂表征泄漏的二氧化碳CCS天然类似物地点，美国爱达荷州苏打泉

碳捕集与封存（CCS）作为全球范围内减少大气中CO ₂排放量的一种手段，需要在全球范围内大规模采用，这需要空前的努力才能将数以十亿计的人为排放物存储在地下。CCS的采用和最终成功的关键在于保护宝贵的水资源，这些资源可能会受到CCS运营中泄漏的CO _2的影响。因此，将需要开发和评估适当的技术工具和社会控制措施，以最大程度地发挥CCS的大气效益，同时限制CCS实施的潜在有害影响。在这里，我们利用自然泄漏的CO ₂该系统位于美国爱达荷州的Soda Springs，作为工业规模CCS部署的模拟装置。该站点对于研究CCS的后果特别有用，因为它可以在实验室和野外实验无法访问的时空尺度上检查地质系统。
