Abstract
Methods for storing carbon dioxide in a subsurface formation include identifying a plurality of negative geologic closures in the subsurface formation. The dimensions of the plurality of negative geologic closures are characterized. Layers of subsurface formation in the vicinity the negative geologic closures are characterized. One of the negative geologic closures is selected for bottom-up storage of carbon dioxide based on the characterized dimensions and layers.
