30 Conclusions from numerical modelling Double sign change can be easily mimicked using a simple complex-valued, frequency-dependent model of conductivity (i.e., Debye). Slight preference for a two-layer Earth model, rather than a homogeneous polarizable halfspace.

31 Outline Introduction. Context. Svalbard. The glacier. Time-domain EM soundings. The data. Complex-valued, frequency-dependent conductivity. Mathematical model. Fitting the observations. The physical mechanism? Summary.

32 What is the physical mechanism? Traditional explanations for polarization effects in exploration geophysics: electrode polarization disseminated sulphides; membrane polarization clays.

33 What is the physical mechanism? But what about an explanation that s relevant here... the ice itself; membrane polarization ice sediment mixture; membrane polarization ice water mixture? Debye Conductivity (S/m) real imaginary Frequency (Hz)

35 Summary Double sign changes have been observed in time-domain EM sounding data from a glacier. These sign changes can be easily reproduced mathematically with a complex-valued, frequency-dependent model of conductivity, such as the Debye model. The physical mechanism responsible for the polarization effects is unknown. It might be a consequence of an ice water mixture, an ice sediment mixture, or a property of the ice itself.
