Onshore Methane Seeps in West Siberian Floodplains
Recently numerous methane seeps were found in West Siberian middle taiga river floodplains. Seepage occurs in unvegetated spots and areas of saturated quicksand deposits and in the bottom of river stream beds. Despite the origin of CH4 in these seeps is not fully understood, they can make substantia...

| Summary: | Recently numerous methane seeps were found in West Siberian middle taiga river floodplains. Seepage occurs in unvegetated spots and areas of saturated quicksand deposits and in the bottom of river stream beds. Despite the origin of CH4 in these seeps is not fully understood, they can make substantial contribution in regional greenhouse gas emission. Possibly, seeps are a unique phenomenon of the studied region. These videos were produced to supplement our researches on gas origin, emission rates and seeps area. |
