The investigation was carried out by the electrical survey and refraction seismic methods in the period of April-May 2018. Moreover, the hydrochemical and piezometry methods were used to confirm the results of the geophysical technique. The results of the present study case showed that the seawater intrusion interface is located at 420–1380 m from the shoreline. Additionally, the presence of the bedrock bulge (clay formation) at a distance ranging between 550 and 1050 m from the shoreline, plays the role of the natural hydraulic barrier for the seawater advance. The findings indicate that the identified seawater intrusion interface and the natural hydraulic barrier formed by the bedrock bulge are critical for managing groundwater resources in the Nador wadi plain.

Due to high nonlinearity, FWI is easy to be trapped into local minima. Extended domain FWI, including wavefield reconstruction inversion (WRI) and extended source waveform inversion (ESI) are attractive options to mitigate this issue. This paper makes an in-depth analysis for FWI in the extended domain, identifying key challenges and searching for potential remedies towards practical applications. WRI and ESI are formulated within the same mathematical framework using Lagrangian-based adjoint-state method with a special focus on time-domain formulation using extended sources, while putting connections between classical FWI, WRI and ESI: both WRI and ESI can be viewed as weighted versions of classic FWI. Due to symmetric positive definite Hessian, the conjugate gradient is explored to efficiently solve the normal equation in a matrix free manner, while both time and frequency domain wave equation solvers are feasible. This study finds that the most significant challenge comes from the huge storage demand to store time-domain wavefields through iterations. To resolve this challenge, two possible workaround strategies can be considered, i.e., by extracting sparse frequencial wavefields or by considering time-domain data instead of wavefields for reducing such challenge. We suggest that these options should be explored more intensively for tractable workflows.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21078,"journal":{"name":"pure and applied geophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Liaodong and Jiaodong regions have similar tectonic backgrounds and geological evolution histories. However, the confirmed gold resources in the Liaodong region are only one-tenth of those in Jiaodong. To reveal the controlling factors behind the differences in mineralization between these two regions and explore the deep mineralization prospects in the Liaodong region, we conducted a short-period and high-density array (WSP array) in the Wulong Gold Concentrated Area, the largest goldfield in the Liaodong region. Using data recorded by 334 SmartSolo seismometers for one month, we applied ambient noise tomography to obtain the S-wave velocity structure of the crust down to a depth of 3.5 km beneath the Wulong goldfield. The velocity structure revealed the presence of two sets of low-velocity anomalies trending NNE and NW, respectively, in the shallow crust (shallower than 1.5 km) of the Wulong goldfield, while two high-velocity anomalies were identified at deeper depths (1.5–3.5 km). By combining these findings with the geological characteristics of the Wulong goldfield, it was discovered that the high-velocity anomaly (II) corresponds to the Sanguliu granitic body exposed at the surface, while the high-velocity anomaly (I) could be a concealed intrusive body. The shallow low-velocity anomalies are the result of hydrothermal alteration caused by mineralizing fluids along the NNE- and NW-trending faults. The intersection of these two sets of faults, where the low-velocity anomalies exist, represents the center of the hydrothermal activities. Based on these observations, it is proposed that the area between the Sanguliu granitic body and the concealed intrusive body in the northwest has favorable metallogenic conditions. The intersections of the NNE- and NW-trending faults show the high potential for forming large to super-large altered rock-type gold deposits.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21078,"journal":{"name":"pure and applied geophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The evolution equation allows us to solve the inverse problem of the earthquake source “cooling down” after the main shock.

The deposition of tsunamis on land is extremely complex, involving contributions from both the hydrodynamics of tsunami flow propagation and the characteristics of the tsunami, as well as topographical conditions. In both local and detailed contexts, artificial structures can affect the formation of tsunami deposits. In this study, we focused on the effect of artificial structures on the characteristics of the 2018 Anak Krakatau tsunami deposits. Field observations showed that the remains of dikes, houses and asphalt roads significantly influenced the source, thickness, structure of tsunami deposits and grain size parameters. Tsunami deposits consisting of fine-grained material originated from the sediment on the seafloor. Tsunami deposits were thicker in areas closer to the part of the sea unaffected by artificial structures and exhibited a thinning trend inland. In general, the grain size of tsunami deposits is coarser than that of pre-tsunami deposits. Tsunami deposits predominantly exhibit an upward fining trend. Our study explains the key role of artificial structures in the formation of tsunami deposits and the sediment structure produced in coastal areas. A drastic change in the characteristics of the grain size parameters results from the presence of artificial structures. Overall, the tsunami deposit layers could have been better sorted. Significantly different sortation values were observed at sites located above the asphalt road. Similarly, kurtosis values showed an anomaly. The skewness value was inversely proportional to the average grain size in areas affected by artificial structures.</p>","PeriodicalId":21078,"journal":{"name":"pure and applied geophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate the mean annual water temperature trends at the confluence of the Sava and Danube Rivers, along with air temperature trends at the Belgrade meteorological station, spanning from 1956 to 2020. Results reveal a consistent increase in temperature across all three measuring stations, with the Danube experiencing a rise of 0.34 °C/decade, the Sava at 0.44 °C/decade, and Belgrade's air temperature increasing by 0.39 °C/decade. Employing the Rescaled Adjusted Partial Sums method, sharp rises in water temperature were pinpointed in 1989 for the Sava and 1990 for the Danube, while Belgrade's air temperature surge began in 1998. The highest intensity of air temperature increase within the recent period (1998–2020) was observed at the Belgrade observatory, reaching 0.76 °C/decade. Notably, the Sava exhibited a faster increase in water temperature over the last thirty years compared to the Danube. August marked the peak average water temperature for both rivers, while July recorded the highest average air temperature in Belgrade. Despite differing flow rates, both rivers exhibit similar hydrological regimes, with maximum flows occurring in April and minimum flows in August for the Sava, and October for the Danube. Seasonal temperature increases were most pronounced in summer, notably in August, with the smallest rises occurring during cold periods. Additionally, an inverse proportional relationship between mean annual water temperatures and discharges was observed at both river stations.

Therefore, In this study, a stochastic time series model was constructed to forecast the precipitation and temperature data of Turkey between 2020 and 2050. Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average models were used to take into account the relationship between the data and seasonality factors. In addition, the most appropriate model for each station was established separately. The accuracy of the predicted data was tested by correlation test (r) and root mean square error (RMSE) test. As a result of the study, the average r value for temperature data was 99% and RMSE value was calculated as 1.46. For precipitation data, the average r value was calculated as 66% and RMSE value as 34.6. In addition, in this study, drought models for Turkey until 2050 were established and spatial and temporal evaluation of these models were made. These models were obtained by analyzing the data of uniformly distributed stations over Turkey between 1990 and 2050 with standard precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI).
