Description:
Methan hydrate in marine sediments - impact on climate and slope stability: Although the existence of gas hydrats has now been known for decades, our understanding of their potential impact on slope stability, carbon cycling, and climate change ist still in its infancy. Although the total amount of carbon trapped in gas hydrate is not well contrained, existing knowledge suggest that these deposits may constitute a significant carbon reservoir, but a quantitative evaluation of its resource potential depends on reliable global an national inventories, and a better understanding of the geological factors that lead to highly concentrated hydrae deposits.
