We handled the fluctuations in voxel porosity averages over unequal depth distributions as signals over uneven time intervals. The strength of wavelet analysis lies in the ability to study the fluctuation of a signal in detail, i.e., the wavelet transforms permit automatic localization of the cyclic attributes' sequences both in time (the depth domain) and according to their frequency (the frequency domain). Thereupon, three main frequency branches (cycles) were discerned: small scale (5, 6.67, and 11 cm), intermediate scale (20, 30 cm), and large scale (66.67 cm). Depending on the CWT coefficients magnitude plot, we were able to detect the developments of porosity oscillation according to the depth variable. Thus, small-scale cycles were seen throughout the core sample., the intermediate-scale cycles were strong in the upper parts of the core sample and dwindled toward greater depths, and the large cycle was predominant in the lower part of the core sample. The cross-correlation of the wavelet coefficients of porosity and rock-forming components allows a detailed study of the inter-dependence of such parameters as their relationship changes over time. The distinct peaks at zero lag indicates that the measured wavelet coefficient series were contemporaneously correlated; their strong positive correlations suggest that both examined series respond similarly and simultaneously to other exogenous factors. The results emphasize that cyclical porosity fluctuations at all scales would concern three main factors; sediment deposition, diagenetic processes, and structural deformation (i.e., convolute laminations).}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1333-4875}, pages = {131-146}, orcid-numbers = {Abutaha, Saja/0000-0001-8439-5895; Geiger, János/0000-0001-9359-5266; Gulyás, Sándor/0000-0002-3384-2381} } @article{MTMT:34194777, title = {The use of CT analysis in revealing structural heterogeneity of freshwater carbonate decoration and construction stones [A CT-analízis alkalmazása az építő- és díszítőkőként használt édesvízi karbonátos kőzetek szerkezeti elemzésében]}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34194777}, author = {Alzoubi, Nour and Gulyás, Sándor and Geiger, János}, doi = {10.55023/issn.1786-271X.2023-010}, journal-iso = {ARCHEOMETRIAI MŰHELY}, journal = {ARCHEOMETRIAI MŰHELY}, volume = {20}, unique-id = {34194777}, issn = {1786-271X}, abstract = {This article presents the findings of a CT analysis conducted on freshwater carbonate rocks found in the Danube-Tisza Interfluve. These rocks are utilized for both construction and decoration purposes in the medieval buildings of the region. The aim of the study was to uncover some petrophysical properties of the rocks deriving from the Csólyospálos quarry. The proportions of the main constituents of the rocks carry significant information about the formation and alteration history of sedimentary rocks. To comprehend and assess the nature of these processes, as well as the resulting spatial variations, it is necessary to gather quantitative data on the distribution of these constituents at both macro- and microscales. The researchers employed an EMmixture analysis that considered the density differences among the individual constituents to determine the quantitative characteristics of the main components that form the rocks. By setting a threshold value to distinguish macropores (empty spaces) with lower density values from the solid matrix, the percentage of voids was calculated for each CT slice. The distribution of these voids was examined in three dimensions along all possible axial directions (X, Y, Z). Watershed algorithm, and Laplace operator were applying on selected CT slices that corresponded to areas with similar compositional features. This approach helped identify potential flow directions within the rocks. The spatial distribution and orientation of macropores, which could be visualized using CT at a resolution of over 200 microns, provided valuable insights into the paths through which water could enter the carbonate rocks used for construction or decoration. This information is crucial in understanding structural damage caused by frost weathering and dissolution via capillary action once a staticstate flow is established.

This paper introduces a quantitative approach for characterizing Quaternary depositional and environmental changes using abandoned channel infill sediments. The proposed approach integrates CoDA and WT to thoroughly comprehend the depositional patterns observed in abandoned channels and the underlying environmental variability. The depositional model constructed based on CoDA showed coarsening-upward sequences, suggesting a periodic connection between the main channel and the oxbow lake. Three scales of cycles consistent with the depositional model constructed using CoDA were identified based on WT: small, medium, and large-scale cycles of processes. The large-scale cycles indicate the main depositional events, while the medium and small scale reflects the variation within and during deposition.

Univariate statistical parameters characterize each sample. The maximum-likelihood method of mixture analysis has been adapted to recover and estimate the parameters of these subpopulations. Subpopulations have been defined in the form of overlapping intervals using statistical parameters gained (mean±2STD).

Grain-size distribution (GSD) is one proxy that helps characterize the alluviation and associated sedimentological processes of the abandoned channels. The classic statistical methods of the grain-size analysis provide insufficient information on the whole distribution; this necessitates a more comprehensive approach. Grain-size endmember modeling (EMM) is one approach beyond the traditional procedures that helps unmix the GSDs. This study describes the changes in the depositional process by unmixing the GSDs of a Holocene abandoned channel through parameterized EMM integrated with lithofacies, age–depth model, loss-on-ignition (LOI), and magnetic susceptibility (MS). This approach effectively enabled the quantification and characterization of up to four endmembers (EM1-4); the characteristics of grain-size endmembers imply changes in sedimentary environments since 8000 BP. EM1 is mainly clay and very fine silt, representing the fine component of the distribution corresponding to the background of quiet water sedimentation of the lacustrine phase. EM2 and EM3 are the intermediate components representing the distal overbank deposits of the flood. EM4 is dominated by coarse silt and very fine sand, representing deposition of overbank flow during the flood periods. This paper demonstrates that the parametrized grain-size EMM is reasonable in characterizing abandoned channel infill sedimentary depositional and sedimentation history.}, year = {2022}, orcid-numbers = {Eltijani, Abdelrhim/0000-0002-6952-158X; Molnár, Dávid/0000-0001-5304-0741; Geiger, János/0000-0001-9359-5266; Sümegi, Pál/0000-0003-1755-4440} }
