Rising Arctic Ocean temperatures cause gas hydrate destabilization and ocean acidification
International audience Vast amounts of methane hydrates are potentially stored in sediments along the continental margins, owing their stability to low temperature - high pressure conditions. Global warming could destabilize these hydrates and cause a release of methane (CH 4 ) into the water column...
