    • Implications of transient methane flux on associated biological communities in high-arctic seep habitats, Storbanken, Norwegian Barents sea 

      Heyl, Taylor P.; Panieri, Giuliana; Fornari, Daniel J.; Mattingsdal, Rune; Sauer, Simone; Yao, Haoyi; McCartin, Luke; McElwee, Elisabeth; Shank, Timothy M. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-21)
      The continental margins of the Arctic Ocean basin contain methane seeps, where transient fluxes of seafloor methane are released due to the thermal dissociation of gas hydrates. An increase in shallow methane seeps identified over the past decade, potentially due to enhanced warming of the Arctic Ocean bottom water and associated destabilization of hydrate structure. Biological communities associated ...

    • An integrated view of the methane system in the pockmarks at Vestnesa Ridge, 79°N 

      Panieri, Giuliana; Bünz, Stefan; Fornari, Daniel J.; Escartin, Javier; Serov, Pavel; Jansson, Pär; Torres, Marta E.; Hong, Wei-Li; Sauer, Simone; Garcia, Rafael; Gracias, Nuno (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-08)
      The Vestnesa Ridge is a NW-SE trending, ~ 100 km-long, 1–2 km-thick contourite sediment section located in the Arctic Ocean, west of Svalbard, at 79°N. Pockmarks align along the ridge summit at water depths of ~ 1200 m; they are ~ 700 m in diameter and ~ 10 m deep relative to the surrounding seafloor. Observations of methane seepage in this area have been reported since 2008. Here we summarize and ...
