Tip** elements are components of the Earth system which may respond nonlinearly to
anthropogenic climate change by transitioning toward substantially different long‐term …

Precipitation of methane-derived authigenic carbonates (MDAC) is an integral part of marine
methane production and consumption, but MDAC's relative significance to the global marine …

Permafrost and glaciers in the high Arctic form an impermeable 'cryospheric cap'that traps a
large reservoir of subsurface methane, preventing it from reaching the atmosphere …

Natural gas hydrate (NGH) is considered one of the most promising future energy sources
because of its considerable reserves and high energy density, which could meet the …

In this study, a microfocus X‐ray computed tomography‐based triaxial testing apparatus was
used to observe and quantify the microstructure evolution of hydrate‐bearing sands during …

The macromechanical properties (strength, stiffness, stress‐strain relationship, etc) of the
hydrate‐bearing sediment are often correlated with the hydrate cementation failure …

Methane hydrate dissociation has long been considered as a mechanism for global carbon
cycle perturbations, climate change and even mass extinctions in Earth's history. However …

The past provides evidence of abrupt climate shifts and changes in the frequency of climate
and weather extremes. We explore the nonlinear response to orbital forcing and then …

The kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) are known to be both economical and eco-friendly in
preventing hydrate blockages. To date, two main inhibition hypotheses of KHIs have been …

This study analyzed the potential effects of gas hydrate (GH) exploitation on the
geomechanical properties of hydrate-bearing sediment (HBS) by examining the combined …
