Hakon Mosby Mud Volcano

Fig. 14.9 Distribution of gas hydrate (after Egorov et al. 1999) superimposed on a schematic vertical model of the temperature field (after Ginsburg et al. 1999) in the Hakon Mosby Mud Volcano. The gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ, shown by bold lines) is determined by pressure and temperature conditions the zone of gas hydrate (GH) accumulation depends on both the thermal gradient and the flux rate of methane.
