Description: Methods

Description: In IGMAS+, the analytical solution of the volume integral for the gravity and magnetic effects of a homogeneous body relies on reducing the three-folded integral to an integral over the bounding polyhedrons (in IGMAS+, polyhedrons are constructed using triangles). The algorithm encompass all elements of the gravity and magnetic tensors. Optimized storage facilitates extremely fast inversion of material parameters and changes to the model geometry. This flexibility simplifies handling geometry changes, as the model geometry is promptly updated, and the field components are recalculated after each modification. The additional ability to invert for the geometry of the individual body interface extends the inverse modelling capabilities. Thanks to its triangular model structure, IGMAS+ effectively manages complex structures, such as the overhangs of salt domes. The software accommodates remanent and induced magnetization of geological bodies and finds application in interpreting borehole gravity and magnetics. The modeling process is guided by constrains from independent data sources, such as structural information, geological maps and seismic data, and is crucial for the genuine integration of 3D thermal modeling and/or full waveform inversion results. IGMAS+ is largely used in the creation of 3-D data-constrained subsurface structural density and susceptibility models at different spatial scales. Both large-scale models (thousands of square km) and regional (hundreds of square km), are important for understanding the drivers of geohazards. In this case IGMAS+ is versatile, capable of handling both flat (regional) and spherical models (global, when it is necessary to consider the curvature of the Earth) in 3D. Medium-scale models support studies on the usage of the subsurface as thermal, electrical or material storage in the context of energy transition. Small-scale (tens of square km) models are largely used in applied geophysics, typically in sub-salt and sub-basalt settings.

Description: Methods

Description: In IGMAS+ the analytical solution of the volume integral for the gravity and magnetic effect of a homogeneous body is based on the reduction of the three-folded integral to an integral over the bounding polyhedrons (in IGMAS polyhedrons are built by triangles). The original algorithm has been extended to cover all elements of the gravity and magnetic tensors as well. Optimized storage enables extreme fast inversion of material parameters and changes to the model geometry and this flexibility makes geometry changes easy. Immediately after each change, model geometry is updated and the field components are recalculated. Because of the triangular model structure, IGMAS+ can handle complex structures (multi Z surfaces) like the overhangs of salt domes very well. It handles remanent and induced magnetisation of geological bodies and was applied to the interpretation of borehole gravity and magnetics. Modelling is constrained by structural input from independent data sources, such as seismic data, and is essential toward true integration of 3D thermal modelling or even Full Waveform Inversion. Geophysical investigations may cover huge areas of several thousand square kilometres but also models of Applied Geophysics at a meter scale. Due to the curvature of the Earth, the use of spherical geometries and calculations is necessary. IGMAS+ can be used for both flat (regional) and spherical models (global) in 3D.

Description: The mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet has increased over the past two decades. Marine-terminating glaciers contribute significantly to this mass loss due to increased melting and ice discharge. Rapid retreat periods of these tidewater glaciers have been linked to the concurrent inflow of warm, Atlantic derived waters. However, little is known about the 15 variability of Atlantic-derived waters within these fjords, due to a lack of multi-annual, in situ measurements. Thus, to better understand the potential role of ocean warming on glacier retreat, reconstructions that characterize the variability of Atlantic water inflow to these fjords are required. Here, we investigate foraminiferal assemblages in a sediment core from Upernavik Fjord, West Greenland, in which the major ice stream Upernavik Isstrøm terminates. We investigate the environmental characteristics that control species diversity and derive that it is predominantly controlled by changes in bottom water 20 variability. Hence, we provide a reconstruction of Atlantic water inflow to Upernavik Fjord, spanning the period 1925-2012. This reconstruction reveals peak Atlantic water inflow during the 1930s and again after 2000, a pattern that is similar to the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). We compare these results to historical observations of front positions of Upernavik Isstrøm. This reveals that inflow of warm, Atlantic-derived waters indeed likely contributed to high retreat rates in the 1930s and after 2000. However, moderate retreat rates of Upernavik Isstrøm also prevailed in the 1960s/1970s, showing that retreat 25 continued despite reduced Atlantic water inflow, albeit at a lower rate. Considering the link between bottom water variability and the AMO in Upernavik Fjord and the fact that a persistent negative phase of the AMO is expected for the next decade, Atlantic water inflow into the fjord may decrease in the next ~10 years.

Description: The magnitude and the chronology of anthropogenic impregnation by Hg and other trace metals of environmental concern (V, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ag, Cd and Pb, including its stable isotopes) in the sediments are determined at the DYFAMED station, a site in the Ligurian Sea (Northwestern Mediterranean) chosen for its supposed open-sea characteristics. The DYFAMED site (VD) is located on the right levee of the Var Canyon turbidite system, at the end of the Middle Valley. In order to trace the influence of the gravity current coming from the canyon on trace metal distribution in the sediment, we studied an additional sediment core (VA) from a terrace of the Var Canyon, and material collected in sediment traps at the both sites at 20 m above sea bottom. The patterns of Hg and other trace element distribution profiles are interpreted using stable Pb isotope ratios as proxies for its sources, taking into account the sedimentary context (turbidites, redox conditions, and sedimentation rates). Major element distributions, coupled with the stratigraphic examination of the sediment cores point out the high heterogeneity of the deposits at VA, and major turbiditic events at both sites. At the DYFAMED site, we observed direct anthropogenic influence in the upper sediment layer (〈2 cm), while on the Var Canyon site (VA), the anthropization concerns the whole sedimentary column sampled (19 cm). Turbiditic events superimpose their specific signature on trace metal distributions. According to the 210Pbxs-derived sedimentation rate at the DYFAMED site (0.4 mm yr-1), the Hg-enriched layer of the top core corresponds to the sediment accumulation of the last 50 years, which is the period of the highest increase in Hg deposition on a global scale. With the hypothesis of the absence of significant post-depositional redistribution of Hg, the Hg/C-org ratio changes between the surface and below are used to estimate the anthropogenic contribution to the Hg flux accumulated in the sediment. The Hg enrichment, from pre-industrial to the present time is calculated to be around 60%, consistent with estimations of global Hg models. However, based on the chemical composition of the trapped material collected in sediment traps, we calculated that epibenthic mobilization of Hg would reach 73%. Conversely, the Cd/C-org ratio decreases in the upper 5 cm, which may reflect the recent decrease of atmospheric Cd inputs or losses due to diagenetic processes.
