1 Contents of Session 9 Physics of Aquatic Systems II 9. Model concepts Werner Aeschbach-Hertig Institute of Environmental Physics University of Heidelberg 1 Model concepts used to interpret tritium data Fully mixed system (exponential model) Multicompartment models (linked mixed boxes) (Black) box or lumped parameter models Theory, types of models Applications Excel workbook for box models calculations Numerical model of hydrological systems in space and time Groundwater flow and transport models Literature: Mook, Vol. 3, ch. 2; Vol. 6, ch. 2 and 4 Kinzelbach et al., 22 and more literature on web. ( 2 Motivation for modeling Tracer ages in Lake Issyk-Kul "Naive" tracer dating ( 3 H, 3 H- 3 He, CFCs, SF 6, 85 Kr, 14 C, ) assumes isolated water parcels (no mixing). Hydrological systems always show some degree of mixing. Tracer ages usually deviate from "true" mean water ages. Problem becomes evident in: Tracer time series (e.g. tritium) Multitracer studies Solution: Use simple models concepts to relate tracer concentrations to mean water residence times. Classical case: Interpretation of tritium time series from Hofer et al., 22, L&O 47: Why do the different tracer ages deviate from each other? 4 Influence of mixing on transient gas tracer ages Non-linearity of the 3 H- 3 He age under mixing 25 τ = 4 τ = 3 τ = 2 τ = 15 2 γ = 3 H young / 3 H old 2 τ = 12 3 He [TU] 15 1 τ = 1 τ = 7 age [yr] 15 1 γ = 1/2 γ = 1 γ = 2 γ = 4 5 τ = 4 5 τ = 2 2-comp. mixing: effect depends on curvature (d 2 c/dt 2 ) of input fct. Linear increase of input: linear response of age on mixing SF 6 : d 2 c/dt 2 > : SF 6 ages tend to underestimate the true age CFCs in last ~1 yr: d 2 c/dt 2 < : CFC ages overestimate true age H [TU] fraction of the old component Age of mixture is biased towards the age of the 3 H-rich component Issyk-Kul: 3 H homogenous (γ = 1): slightly overestimated ages 6
2 Tracer ages in Lake Issyk-Kul Qualitative explanation of age deviations in Lake Issyk-Kul: CFCs: d 2 c/dt 2 < : apparent tracer age much too high SF 6 : d 2 c/dt 2 > : tracer age slightly too low 3 H- 3 He: γ = 1, tracer age slightly too high Tracer ages in the Ocean Good agreement between CFCs and 3 H- 3 He for low ages Older mixtures: 3 H- 3 He biased towards bomb peak age Maximum CFC age: ~ 5 yr 7 8 Tritium time series: Smoothing by mixing Example: Mixing of fast and slow runoff components in a river Mixed reactor model (exponential model) Simple model for tritium in aquatic systems: Fully mixed reservoir with constant throughflow, variable input concentration, and decay Q,C in V,C Q,C Mass balance: from Mook, 21 9 V: System volume [L 3 ] Q: Flow rate [L 3 T -1 ] k = Q/V: Exchange rate [T -1 ] τ = V/Q: Exchange time [T] C: System concentration [ML -3 ] C in : Input concentration [ML -3 ] C out = C: Output conc.

Hydrol. 256: Applications of box models to multi-tracer studies Several tracers from several wells at one time Output of exponential model at time of sampling, for both tracers and variable values of τ Explaining differences of apparent tracer ages Results of a sampling in 2: Tritium: 18.8 ±.9 TU; 3 He tri : equivalent to 56.6 ±.7 TU age: 25 yr F-12: equivalent to 39 ± 1 pptv age: 15 yr 85 Kr: 25.7 ± 1.1 dpm/cc Kr age: 12 yr How can this be explained? 33 Tool: Excel workbook "Boxmodel", developed by K. Zoellmann and W.
