Geoacoustic evidence of methane migration from submarine coaliferous formations to Holocene sediments (Amur Bay, Sea of Japan)

A study uncovered geoacoustic evidence of methane migration from submarine coaliferous formations to Holocene sediments in Amur Bay in the Sea of Japan. The data obtained are consistent with the assump tion that the acoustic anomalies could be formed due to vertical migration of fluids saturated wit...

Description
Summary:A study uncovered geoacoustic evidence of methane migration from submarine coaliferous formations to Holocene sediments in Amur Bay in the Sea of Japan. The data obtained are consistent with the assump tion that the acoustic anomalies could be formed due to vertical migration of fluids saturated with dissolved methane.
