Natural gas hydrates [electronic resource] : occurrence, distribution, and detection / Charles K. Paull, William P. Dillon, editors.

This collection of 19 papers reviews research directions in the geochemistry of gas hydrates and related geophysics. Some of the topics are modeling the global carbon cycle with a gas hydrate capacitor, ion exclusion associated with marine gas hydrate deposits, deep-tow seismic investigations of met...
