Understanding and quantifying the global methane (CH 4) budget is important for assessing
realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. Atmospheric emissions and concentrations of …

Natural gas hydrate is ice‐like mixture of gas (mostly methane) and water that is widely
found in sediments along the world's continental margins and within and beneath permafrost …

鄂尔多斯盆地东缘, 新疆等地区中深部/深部煤层气的试采成功大大推进了中国深部煤层气的
开发进程. 为进一步推动深部煤层气的规模性高产, 有必要依托当前钻探成果和开发实践动态 …

Geologic molecular hydrogen (H 2) occurs in the subsurface and vents and seeps at the
surface. However, this valuable natural resource is under-utilized in the economy because …

Ethane is the second most abundant component of natural gas in addition to methane, and—
similar to methane—is chemically unreactive. The biological consumption of ethane under …

Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

At marine cold seeps, gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons migrate from deep subsurface
origins to the sediment-water interface. Cold seep sediments are known to host …

The petroleum exploration well Luntan-1 (LT1) located in the Tabei Uplift, Tarim Basin,
China reached vertical depth 8882 m and is now the deepest well in Asia. A significant …

Methane (CH 4) is a powerful greenhouse gas, whose natural and anthropogenic emissions
contribute∼ 20% to global radiative forcing. Its atmospheric budget (sources and sinks) …

The East Siberian Arctic Shelf holds large amounts of inundated carbon and methane
(CH4). Holocene warming by overlying seawater, recently fortified by anthropogenic …
