Biogeochemistry and timing of methane-derived carbonate formation at Leirdjupet fault complex, SW Barents sea

The origin of modern seafloor methane emissions in the Barents Sea is tightly connected to the glacio-tectonic and oceanographic transformations following the last ice age. Those regional events induced geological structure re-activation and destabilization of gas hydrate reservoirs over large areas...
