Formation of a Low-Density Liquid Phase during the Dissociation of Gas Hydrates in Confined Environments

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
The large amounts of natural gas in a dense solid phase stored in the confined environment of porous materials have become a new, potential method for storing and transporting natural gas.

Estimation of gas hydrate concentration from multi-component seismic data at sites on the continental margins of NW Svalbard and the Storegga region of Norway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
High-resolution seismic experiments, employing arrays of closely spaced, four-component ocean-bottom seismic recorders, were conducted at a site off western Svalbard and a site on the northern margin of the Storegga slide, off Norway to investigate how ...

Breakthrough Design of Highly Potent Antivirals Against Wild‐Type HIV‐1 and Lenacapavir‐Resistant M66I Variant

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Lenacapavir, the first‐in‐class drug targeting HIV‐1 capsid, is a breakthrough drug in HIV‐1 treatment and prophylaxis. However, a single M66I mutation confers complete viral resistance to lenacapavir. We report herein the design and synthesis of innovative R2 analogs demonstrating low nM potency against HIV‐1 M66I and excellent pharmacokinetics in ...

Methane release from warming-induced hydrate dissociation in the West Svalbard continental margin: timing, rates, and geological controls

open access: yes, 2013
Hundreds of plumes of methane bubbles, first observed in 2008, emanate from an area of the seabed off West Svalbard that has become 1°C warmer over the past 30 years. The distribution of the plumes, lying close to and upslope from the present upper limit

Seismic evidence for shallow gas-escape features associated with a retreating gas hydrate zone offshore west Svalbard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Active gas venting occurs on the uppermost continental slope off west Svalbard, close to and upslope from the present-day intersection of the base of methane hydrate stability (BMHS) with the seabed in about 400 m water depth in the inter-fan region ...

Modeling the climate response to a massive methane release from gas hydrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
[1] The climate response to a massive release of methane from gas hydrates is simulated in two 2500-year-long numerical experiments performed with a three-dimensional, global coupled atmosphere-sea ice-ocean model of intermediate complexity.

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Polymeric Sorbents as Energy‐Efficient Alternative to Cryogenic Distillation for Light Hydrocarbon Purification

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The transition from cryogenic distillation to polymeric sorbents for light hydrocarbon purification is crucial for energy and environmental sustainability. The polymeric sorbents are engineered to separate gas mixtures based on their specific properties.

Joint seismic/electrical effective medium modelling of hydrate-bearing marine sediments and an application to the Vancouver Island margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Remote determination of the hydrate content of marine sediments remains a challenging problem.In the absence of boreholes, the most commonly used approach involves the measurement of Pwavevelocities from seismic experiments.
