Photos of field site activities at Mammoth, Mountain, CA, from September 22 to October 5, 2011 are available here. The Mammoth Mountain area is well known for natural CO2 vents and associated tree kill offering a unique analog site to GCS leakage and ecosystem interactions. The field site and field work were directed by Jennifer Lewicki, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory.
