Microbial Colonization of Minerals in Marine Sediments – Method Development and Ecological Significance [PDF]

, 2011
Interactions between microorganisms and minerals significantly impact microbial diversity and geochemical cycles in diverse settings. However, methodological difficulty has inhibited past study of microbe–mineral interactions in fine-grained subsurface ...

Search for impact ejecta at the Paleocene–Eocene boundary

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Almost 10 years have passed since microtektites and microkrystites were reported for the Paleocene–Eocene (P–E) boundary in drill cores and outcrop in New Jersey and in ODP Hole 1051B in the western North Atlantic. The glassy spherules were interpreted to reflect an impact trigger for the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM).

High-resolution 3D seismic investigations of hydrate-bearing fluid escape chimneys in the Nyegga region of the Voring Plateau, Norway

, 2008
Hundreds of pockmarks and mounds, which seismic reflection sections show to be underlain by chimney-like structures, exist in southeast part of the Vøring plateau, Norwegian continental margin.

Mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter haploinsufficiency leads to sexually dimorphic redox imbalance and metabolic remodelling in the mouse brain

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The genetic inactivation of one Mcu allele leads to sex‐specific changes in neuronal function in adult mice, that is, the firing of action potentials and the relationship between cytosolic and mitochondrial Ca2+ levels. The ability to produce NAD(P)H by stimulated neural tissue is largely preserved in male mice but delayed in ...

Hydrate-Based Methane Separation from the Drainage Coal-Bed Methane with Tetrahydrofuran Solution in the Presence of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate

, 2012
To determine the appropriate operating conditions for separating methane (CH4) from drainage coal-bed methane (CBM) mixed with air, a hydrate-based methane separation method is proposed.

Discrete element analysis of macro- and micro-mechanical properties of methane hydrate-bearing clay under different salinities

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The mechanical behavior of methane hydrate bearing soil is closely related to the characteristics of hydrate phase equilibrium. Compared with sand, clay has smaller pore size and the pore size has a great influence on the characteristics of hydrate phase

Measurement and modeling of the effective thermal conductivity for porous methane hydrate samples

, 2012
The effective thermal conductivities of gas-saturated porous methane hydrates were measured by a single-sided transient plane source (TPS) technique and simulated by a generalized fractal model of porous media that based on self-similarity. The density

The microstructure of sediment-hosted hydrates: evidence from effective medium modelling of laboratory and borehole seismic data

, 2009
Much of our knowledge of hydrate distribution in the subsurface comes frominterpretations of remote seismic measurements. A key step in such interpretations isan effective medium theory that relates the seismic properties of a given sediment toits ...

Investigation of methane gas bubble dynamics and hydrate film growth during hydrate formation using 4-D time-lapse synchrotron X-ray computed tomography

Frontiers in Earth Science
We present a time-lapse 4-D high-resolution synchrotron imaging study of the morphological evolution of methane gas bubbles and hydrate film growth on these bubbles.
