Modelling of electromagnetic signatures of global ocean circulation: physical approximations and numerical issues

Abstract: The interactions of flowing electrically conductive seawater with Earth's magnetic field generate electric currents within the oceans, as well as secondary electric currents induced in the resistive solid Earth. The ocean-induced magnetic field (OIMF) is an observable signature of these currents. Ignoring tidally forced ocean flows, the global ocean circulation system is driven by wind forcing on the ocean surface and by the temperature-and salinity-dependent buoyancy force. Ocean circulation's magnetic signal… Show more

“…With the numerical 3-D induction solver x3dg of Kuvshinov (2008), we compute the electromagnetic response to interactions of ocean tide-induced currents and the heterogeneous electrical conducting environment; x3dg solves Maxwell's equations in the frequency domain using an iterative contracting volume integral equation approach (Pankratov et al, 1995;Singer and Fainberg, 1995). The solver has been shown to simulate electromagnetic fields of models with sharp contrasts and complicated geometries in an efficient and accurate manner (Kelbert et al, 2014;Sachl et al, 2019). The solver is forced with the computed monthly ocean tide-induced electric currents and conductance distributions (Velímský et al, 2018).…”

“…We also want to thank Alexey Kuvshinov for kindly providing his 3-D EM induction code and the model of mantle conductivity. The published data set Petereit et al (2019) provides the complete time series data of the computed global ocean tide-induced electromagnetic field signals. The data are permanently available at the public research data repository GFZ Data Services (DOI: http://doi.org/10.5880/ GFZ.1.3.2019.001).…”

“…In the past decade X3DG (which is also based on IE approach) has been used in numerous studies (Chen et al, 2020;Chulliat et al, 2016;Grayver et al, 2017;Guzavina et al, 2019;Honkonen et al, 2018;Irrgang et al, 2019;Khan et al, 2011;Manoj et al, 2006;Munch et al, 2020;Püthe et al, 2014b;Sabaka et al, 2020;Sachl et al, 2019;Saynisch et al, 2017;Schnepf et al, 2018;Telschow et al, 2018;Velimsky et al, 2018, among others) to compute EM field and responses in spherical 3-D conductivity models of the Earth induced by the sources of different (oceanic, ionospheric or/and magnetospheric) origin. However, X3DG, being developed around two decades ago, is viewed nowadays as a rather obsolete, in terms of computational efficiency, versatility and accuracy.…”
