Journal ArticleDOI

Active gas venting through hydrate-bearing sediments on the Vestnesa Ridge, offshore W-Svalbard

TL;DR: A recent cruise with R/V Jan Mayen discovered methane flares in the water column above the seafloor pockmark field at the onset of the Vestnesa Ridge as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Record of methane emissions from the West Svalbard continental margin during the last 23.500yrs revealed by δ13C of benthic foraminifera

TL;DR: In this article, the values of δ13C in benthic foraminifera have been measured in a gas-hydrate-bearing sediment core collected from an area of active methane venting on the Vestnesa Ridge (West Svalbard continental margin) to reconstruct the local history of methane emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon isotope (δ 13 C) excursions suggest times of major methane release during the last 14 kyr in Fram Strait, the deep-water gateway to the Arctic

TL;DR: In this article, a sediment core collected from a pockmark field on the Vestnesa Ridge (~ 80° N) in the eastern Fram Strait was used to detect carbon isotope excursion (CIE I and CIE II).
Journal ArticleDOI

Methane seepage at Vestnesa Ridge (NW Svalbard) since the Last Glacial Maximum

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a Late Pleistocene and Holocene stratigraphic framework, using stable oxygen and carbon isotope signatures (δ^(18)O, δ(13)C) of benthic and planktic foraminifera, the mineralogical and carbon-oxide composition of methane-derived authigenic carbonate (MDAC) and sediment geochemical data of ten sediment cores to assess methane seepage variability on Vestnesa Ridge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Palaeoceanographic and environmental changes in the eastern Fram Strait during the last 14,000 years based on benthic and planktonic foraminifera

TL;DR: Benthic and planktonic foraminifera, stable isotopes and other geochemical and sedimentological parameters have been investigated in a sediment core from Vestnesa Ridge in order to reconstruct the palaeoceanographic and palaeoenvironmental evolution of the eastern Fram Strait during the last 14,000 years as mentioned in this paper.
