AbstractThe paper presents the latest results of Monte Carlo inversion of IP data in the areas of water base protection and ore exploration. The method of determining the time constant spectrum using Monte Carlo inversion and the parameters characterizing the degree of environmental contaminations and ore deposition are presented. Among the field applications in Hungary, the investigation of the ionic pollution of the Ráckeve water base and the characterization of the Felsőtelekes waste dump of the Rudabánya iron ore mine are presented. In addition to these, the paper presents the investigation of ore deposition in the area of a gold mine in Mongolia using the Monte Carlo inversion of multi-electrode pole-dipole IP method.

<div> <p>A seismic site characterization of the iron ore mine at Mt. Erzberg was performed in November 2016. The covered area measured about 4 km² within the active mine and the surrounding village. Within 4 weeks 125 3-component-geophones recorded 31 seismic events including production blasts. This data allowed for the computation of P and S velocity models. Which in turn were the basis for seismic wave field modelling with an elastic FD code. These simulations were used to calculate optimized blasting patterns for minimal vibrations at sensitive targets, like settlements and infrastructure, which were tested in a second and third experiment in June and October 19. (see contribution by Trabi et al.) </p> </div><div> <p>In this study a statistical analysis of the resulting PPV-vector at any given geophone position was done, utilizing recorded blasts from 3 experiments. Using a scaled distance method, one can establish relationships between blast intensity, distance and ground vibrations. When compared to the PPV prognosis from the simulations, this analysis allows for assessments on prediction accuracy. General trends in PGV estimation can also be used to create site amplification factors to further enhance optimized blasting pattern calculations. </p> </div><div> <p>This study is part of a large interdisciplinary EU funded project called SLIM, which focuses on sustainability in mining. </p> </div>

AbstractGlacier response to climate can be characterized by a single time-scale when the glacier changes sufficiently slowly. Then the derivative of volume with respect to area defines a thickness scale similar to that of Jóhannesson and others, and the time-scale follows from it. Our version of the time-scale is different from theirs because it explicitly includes the effect of surface elevation on mass-balance rate, which can cause a major increase in the time-scale or even lead to unstable response. The time constant has a dual role, controlling both the rate and magnitude of response to a given climate change. Data from South Cascade Glacier, Washington, U.S.A., illustrate the ideas, some of the difficulty in obtaining accurate values for the thickness and time-scales, and the susceptibility of all response models to potentially large errors.
