However, the high concentrations of sea spray and mineral dust found in Arctic snow samples pose distinct challenges, that might impact the accuracy and precision of measurements, despite the existing efforts to minimise matrix effects. In particular, the higher amount of dust in the Arctic snow/ice samples could present an additional source for insoluble elements typically found in sea spray that is insoluble and thus undetectable by IC, causing a divergency between the results obtained from the two techniques. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehend how these factors influence the efficacy of ICP-QMS and IC techniques in polar research.

Groundwater chemistry of redox-sensitive parameters can be used to infer subsurface redox conditions; however, it typically provides only point-scale information and requires significant time and effort to acquire large datasets. In soil science, soil/sediment colors have been used to qualitatively infer redox status in different soil horizons. In this study, we quantitatively assessed the potential of sediment color as a proxy for subsurface redox conditions at a national scale in Denmark. We did so by comparing sediment color classifications with groundwater redox conditions from approximately 4000 groundwater screens across the country. The sediment color dataset included seven base colors i.e., red, yellow, black, blue, green (olive), gray, and brown, encompassing a total of 89 variations, accounting for nuances (e.g., yellowish, grayish) and lightness (light vs dark). Our results revealed that, overall, qualitative redox interpretations based on sediment color aligned well with the oxic groundwater fraction. Gray and brown groups were the predominant colors, and within each group, the oxic water fraction increased with oxic-associated nuances (e.g., yellowish gray) and lighter shades (e.g., light yellowish gray) compared to their respective base color (i.e., gray). Most brown colors and gray shades with oxic (e.g., yellowish gray) and brownish nuances (e.g., brownish gray) showed oxic water fractions that decreased exponentially with increasing depth, suggesting hydrological controls on the redox conditions. Based on these findings, sediment color data from more than 27,000 boreholes across the country were quantitatively translated into oxic probability, enabling more precise delineation of the redox interface. Since sediment color data can be collected rapidly and at large scales, it provides a reliable and cost-effective means of assessing subsurface redox conditions. Therefore, sediment colors data have great potential to enhance large-scale modelling of redox-sensitive contaminant transport and fate.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8064,"journal":{"name":"Applied Geochemistry","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 106493"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144571850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The average concentration of carbazole compounds in fresh lacustrine facies crude oil is significantly higher compared to those from salt lake facies and marine facies. Furthermore, salinity exerts a significant influence on the alkylation of methylcarbazole, whereas its effect on dimethylcarbazole alkylation is comparatively less pronounced. Under the premise of fully correcting the migration distance, the sedimentary environment (salinity, redox conditions) plays a dominant role in the distribution of carbazole compounds. Sedimentary facies and depositional environments also affect the total nitrogen concentrations and maturity-related parameters, such as the 1-MC/4-MC ratio. However, these factors minimal influence on migration indicators, such as the ratios of 3-MC/4-MC, 1,8-DMC/2,7-DMC, 1,3-DMC/2,7-DMC, and [a]/([a] + [c])-BC, which serve as reliable diagnostic tools for inferring the sedimentary environment. These findings indicate that carbazole compounds can serve as valuable tools for oil-source correlation studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8064,"journal":{"name":"Applied Geochemistry","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 106484"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144511112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The stable carbon and hydrogen isotopes of methane and carbon dioxide, δ<sup>13</sup>C–CH<sub>4</sub>, δ<sup>13</sup>C–CO<sub>2</sub> and δ<sup>2</sup>H–CH<sub>4</sub>, can inform on the sources of gas in groundwater and determine if the origin is via thermogenic or different biogenic (microbial) processes. This can, for example, inform if there is connectivity between gas reservoirs and overlying aquifers. These stable isotopes are also used in monitoring in a range of settings, for example, during CO<sub>2</sub> geological storage. The pumping of groundwater to the surface results in depressurisation and gas effervescence, therefore the sampling method (i.e. if the sample contacts atmosphere) is known to affect measured dissolved gas concentrations; however, the effect of sample collection on the stable isotopes remains unresolved. Gas stable isotopes can be collected in the field in a range of sample containers, including dissolved gases in exetainer vials or Isoflasks; or free gases in gas bags or cylinders. Aquifer groundwaters, coal seam gas (CSG) production waters, and CSG free gases were collected from a range of bores for δ<sup>13</sup>C–CH<sub>4</sub>, δ<sup>13</sup>C–CO<sub>2,</sub> and δ<sup>2</sup>H–CH<sub>4</sub> analysis. Sample pairs of dissolved gases from exetainer vials and Isoflasks were mainly compared and generally had excellent low directional percentage variabilities. A subset of sample pairs from other containers (including free gas in gas cylinders or gas bags) were also compared with consistent stable isotope signatures generally measured. This brings confidence for using different sample containers if needed for different field conditions and situations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8064,"journal":{"name":"Applied Geochemistry","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 106482"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144502780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
