1 WCA gas trap results and ebullition modeling: testing an ebullition model shows the importance of pore structure William Wright¹, Jorge Ramirez², Xavier Comas¹ ¹Department of Geosciences, Florida Atlantic University. Boca Raton, FL ²University of Bern, Institute of Geography. Bern, Switzerland April 17 th 2017
2 1. Introduction Both deep and shallow models show similar processes: CH₄ produced is either : 1) released through ebullition 2) lost through consumption 3) lost via diffusion 4) stored in-situ
3 1. Introduction Ebullition research looking for controls: Environmental factors as control: -change in atmp (increase and/or decrease) [Comas and Wright, 2012, 2014; Chen and Slater, 2015] -gas reaching a threshold volume [Baird et al, 2004; Yu et al, 2014] -overpressuring of gas pockets [Glaser et al, 2004] Peat structure as a control: -effective porosity (tortuosity) [Chen and Slater, 2015] -presence of gas confining layers [Comas et al, 2011] -lower porosity masks diurnal production [Ramirez et al, 2015a] -larger pore spaces= larger bubbles [Ramirez et al, 2016] From Wright GEER 2017 poster #009 From Chen and Slater, 2015

7 2. Study Sites Set up model parameters following measurements at 2 field sites (green circles): o o Peat thickness Porosity Also, took weekly traditional measurements: o o o gas flux Gas content (GPR) CH4 production (from GPR + flux) Modified from Wright and Comas, 2016
8 3. Methods GPR Theory : EM pulses sent from transmitter to receiver and bouncing off interfaces, finding travel times yields EM wave velocity EM wave travels fastest through air, slowest in water By assuming fully saturated conditions changes in travel time correspond with changes in gas content. Modified from Wright and Comas, 2016
9 3. Methods Estimating gas content from GPR velocity o Complex Refractive Index Model (CRIM): V c r(b) * Assuming low-loss medium, EM Velocity (v) is related to bulk dielectric permittivity ( r(b )) a r( b) a 1 r n w r s r a a n a o % gas content = porosity (n) volumetric water content (Ѳ) o Variables accounted for: permittivity of water (ε rw ) as a function of Temperature a is rotational component of dielectric permittivity YIELDS GAS CONTENT, IN % BY VOLUME
10 3. Methods Gas traps and Time-Lapse cameras *flux rates at 30 min. intervals from Wright, Ramirez, and Comas, in prep.
11 3. Methods Mass Balance approach: Total Production (P) = Sum of: (E) ebullition Wright, W., and Comas, X. "Estimating methane gas production in peat soils of the Florida Everglades using hydrogeophysical methods."

"Resistivity based monitoring of biogenic gases in peat soils." Water resources research 43, no. 10 (2007). Similar increases of gas content at shallow depths. Driven by porosity?
20 5. Discussion / Conclusions Model replicated observed ebullition patterns well using only structure variables - NO environmental variables considered Ebullition patterns may be controlled by physical properties of the peat matrix Modelled gas storage clusters seem to replicate gas contents observed in column sample - Higher production rates within the peat column? - Are these driven by zones of increased porosity?
