Deep-sea chemosynthetic communities, including hydrothermal vents and cold seeps,
harbour hundreds of endemic species currently threatened by deep-sea mining and …

Natural gas (NG) is considered a modern source of energy. Gas hydrates are anticipated to
be an alternative method for gas storage and transportation applications. The process must …

Abstract The Indian Ocean is the third largest of the world's oceans, accounting for~ 20% for
the global marine realm. It is geomorphologically complex, hosting a wide variety of …

The submarine volcanic arc off-Nicobar is seismologically very active with numerous
earthquake swarms reported after the tsunamigenic 26th December 2004 earthquake in the …

We use 3D seismic data to show that three rows of seafloor gas mounds can be traced
downward to leak points that lie at the hydrate-gas contact within three individual dipping …

In this study, we conducted a comprehensive investigation of rock magnetic, mineralogical,
and sedimentological records of sediment cores supplemented by a high resolution seismic …

Active cold seep sites associated with shallow gas hydrates were recently reported from
Krishna-Godavari (KG) basin, off east coast of India. Benthic fauna including …

This study investigated the distribution, sources, and ecological risk of polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the surface sediments of the Western Bay of Bengal (WBoB) …

The planktic foraminifera are an important component of the global carbon cycle, as they
sequester the carbon, thus burying it in the sediments for ages. The burial of planktic …

The bubble energy harvesting system can effectively convert the subsea gas potential
energy into electrical energy for the subsea observation equipment, but a high gas–liquid …
