Petrology, Vrije, Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands coastal aquifers is a key process controlling the chemistry of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD). The quantification of such Arc magmas typically display chemical and petrographic mixing and its effects on the fate of reactive chemical compounds in characteristics indicative of crustal input. Crustal contamination can take place either in the mantle source region or as magma coastal waters are still the subject of debate. We developed reactive traverses the crust (e.g. [1]). While source contamination is transport model approaches to study the mechanisms responsible for generally considered the dominant process (e.g. [2, 3, 4]), crustal contamination in high level magma chambers has also controlling reactive mixing processes in coastal aquifers. These been recognised at volcanic arcs (e.g. [5, 6]). In light of this, we models employ hybrid numerical methods for solving flow and aim to test the extent of upper crustal versus source contamination along the Java segment of the Sunda arc, which, transport [1,2], and benefit from utilizing the biogeochemical because of its variable upper crustal structure, is ideal for the reaction network simulator (BRNS) [3]. task. We present a detailed geochemical study of 7 volcanoes Critical to advancing our understanding is the study of the along a traverse from Anak-Krakatau in the Sunda strait interplay between reaction and flow. We particularly investigated the through Java (Gede, Slamet, Merapi, Kelut, Kawah-Ijen) and Bali (Batur). Using rock and mineral elemental geochemistry impact of dispersion, heterogeneity induced velocity variations and and radiogenic (Sr, Nd and Pb) and, stable (O) isotopes, we show a correspondence between changes in composition of the biogeochemical reactivities on reactive transport for density driven upper crust and the apparent degree of upper crustal flow scenarios representing seawater-groundwater-interface in contamination. There is an increase in 87Sr/86Sr and δ18O, and a decrease in 143Nd/144Nd from Krakatau towards Merapi, coastal aquifers. Our numerical observation showed e.g., that for indicating substantial input from the thick quasi-continental highly reactive dissolved organic carbon (DOC) degradation basement beneath East and Central Java. Volcanoes to the east of Merapi, and the Progo-Muria fault zone, where the upper processes are limited by the porous media properties controlling crust is thinner and increasingly oceanic in nature have lower dispersion, whereas for relatively less reactive DOC degradation is 87Sr/86Sr and δ18O, and higher 143Nd/144Nd indicating a stronger influence of the mantle source [7]. Our new data represent a controlled by reaction kinetics. systematic and high-resolution arc-wide sampling effort that In general, we found three reactive flow regimes: reaction allows us to distinguish the effects of the upper crust on the compositional spectrum of individual volcanic systems along controlled, reaction-dispersion controlled and dispersion the Sunda arc. controlled transport.
