Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity of the carbon cycle in the Arctic to climate change
A. David McGuire,Leif G. Anderson,Torben R. Christensen,Scott R. Dallimore,Laodong Guo,Daniel J. Hayes,Martin Heimann,Thomas D. Lorenson,Robie W. Macdonald,Nigel T. Roulet +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive review of the status of the contemporary carbon cycle of the Arctic and its response to climate change is presented to clarify key uncertainties and vulnerabilities in the response of the carbon cycle in the Arctic to ongoing climatic change.
Book ChapterDOI
The Global Occurrence of Natural Gas Hydrate
TL;DR: Natural gas hydrate occurs worldwide in oceanic sediment of continental and insular slopes and rises of active and passive margins, in deep-water sediment of inland lakes and seas, and in polar sediment on both continents and continental shelves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Authigenic carbonate formation at hydrocarbon seeps in continental margin sediments: A comparative study
Thomas H. Naehr,Peter Eichhubl,Victoria J. Orphan,Martin Hovland,Charles K. Paull,William Ussler,Thomas D. Lorenson,H. Gary Greene +7 more
TL;DR: Authigenic carbonates from five continental margin locations, the Eel River Basin, Monterey Bay, Santa Barbara Basin, the Sea of Okhotsk, and the North Sea, exhibit a wide range of mineralogical and stable isotopic compositions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origin of pingo-like features on the Beaufort Sea shelf and their possible relationship to decomposing methane gas hydrates
Charles K. Paull,William Ussler,Scott R. Dallimore,S. Blasco,Thomas D. Lorenson,Humfrey Melling,Barbara E. Medioli,F. Mark Nixon,Fiona A. McLaughlin +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a search for gas venting on the Arctic seafloor focused on pingo-like-features (PLFs) on the Beaufort Sea Shelf was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemistry, isotopic composition, and origin of a methane-hydrogen sulfide hydrate at the Cascadia subduction zone
TL;DR: A 2-to-3-cm thick massive gas hydrate layer, parallel to bedding, was recovered at ∼ 17 mbsf, containing both CH4 and H2S.
