Methane is supersaturated in surface seawater and shallow coastal waters dominate global
ocean methane emissions to the atmosphere. Aerobic methane oxidation (MOx) can reduce …

Submarine cold seeps and hydrothermal vents are the key agents of material and energy
exchange between the marine lithosphere and outer geospheres. Moreover, they breed …

The methane-enriched fluids in cold seeps are likely to crystallize as gas hydrates and serve
as crucial sources of carbon to seawater. In this research, we analyzed the pore-water …

Ocean warming related to climate change has been proposed to cause the dissociation of
gas hydrate deposits and methane leakage on the seafloor. This process occurs in places …

Estuaries, considered as the important carbon dioxide (CO 2), nitrous oxide (N 2 O) and
methane (CH 4) sources to the atmosphere, are increasingly affected by near-bottom …

This paper presents a comprehensive study of biogenic dimethylated sulfur compounds and
methane (CH4) from 27 March to 16 April 2018 (spring) and from 24 July to 10 August 2018 …

Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is an important process that regulates methane
budget in the global carbon cycle. Sulfate is traditionally regarded as the most important …

The oceans are natural sources of atmospheric methane (CH4), but the origin of excess
CH4 at the surface remains enigmatic. Incubation experiments were conducted in the …

Shallow gas is generally extensively distributed in the Holocene muddy sediments and gas
seepage has been increasingly reported to induce geohazards in coastal seas, but controls …

High-resolution seismic surveys were carried out in the inner shelf of the East China Sea to
investigate the distribution of shallow gas in Holocene sediments. Shallow gas is distributed …
