Annual Report 2015
Large amounts of the greenhouse gas methane are stored beneath the ocean floor in a stable form called hydrate. Hydrates occur naturally under high pressure and low temperatures. Water molecules freeze and encage methane with ice thus stabilizing it into solid form. The Arctic contains large reservo...
