Anomalous Preservation of CH4 Hydrate and its Dependence on the Morphology of Hexagonal Ice

Trapped: Anomalous preservation, the existence of gas hydrates far outside their stability zone below the melting point of ice, is shown to depend on the type of guest molecule, the morphology of hexagonal ice that grows during hydrate dissociation and the mode of decomposition (see graphic).
