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
Gas hydrates along the northeastern Atlantic margin: possible hydrate-bound margin instabilities and possible release of methane
TL;DR: In this paper, the presence of gas hydrates and free gas in oceanic sediments along the northeastern European Margin is documented in high-frequency nearvertical and wide-angle seismic reflection data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arctic methane sources: Isotopic evidence for atmospheric inputs
Rebecca Fisher,S. Sriskantharajah,David Lowry,Mathias Lanoisellé,C. M. R. Fowler,Rachael H. James,Ove Hermansen,C. Lund Myhre,Andreas Stohl,Jens Greinert,P. B. R. Nisbet-Jones,Jürgen Mienert,Euan G. Nisbet +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the methane mixing ratio and the carbon isotope ratio (δ13CCH4) in Arctic air with regional background to determine the source of CH4 emissions from boreal wetlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rethinking Late Weichselian ice-sheet dynamics in coastal NW Svalbard
Jon Y. Landvik,Ólafur Ingólfsson,Jürgen Mienert,Scott J. Lehman,Anders Solheim,Anders Elverhøi,Dag Ottesen +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a suite of glacial sediments in the Kongsfjordrenna cross-shelf trough can be traced southwards to the shelf west of Prins Karls Forland, indicating that glacial ice also covered the coastal lowlands of northwest Svalbard.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution seismic experiments, employing arrays of closely spaced, four-component ocean-bottom seismic recorders, were conducted at a site off western Svalbard and a site on the northern margin of the Storegga slide, off Norway to investigate how well seismic data can be used to determine the concentration of methane hydrate beneath the seabed.
