SIGNIFICANCE OF MUD VOLCANISM [PDF]
Reviews of Geophysics, 2002 Mud volcanism and diapirism have puzzled geoscientists for ∼2 centuries. They have been described onshore and offshore in many places on Earth, and although they occur in various tectonic settings, the majority of the features known to date are located in compressional tectonic scenarios.

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 247-262., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Gravity Data Allow to Image the Shallow‐Medium Subsurface Below Mud Volcanoes
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The debate about the conceptual model of mud volcanoes functioning is still alive in the literature. A large part of the literature focuses on the characterization of the deep reservoir where expelled fluids are expected to originate.

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2020 We present a new seismic reflection dataset and use it to characterize fossil mud volcanoes in the southwestern Songliao graben basin in northeastern China. The results reveal a link between mud volcanism and slab rollback along the eastern Asian margin.

Mud volcanism: An updated review [PDF]
Earth-Science Reviews, 2017 Abstract Mud volcanism, or sedimentary volcanism, represents one of the most intriguing phenomena of the Earth's crust, with important implications in energy resource exploration, seismicity, geo-hazard and atmospheric budget of greenhouse gases. Since the first review papers were issued at the beginning of 2000s, a large amount of new geological ...

Геофизический журнал, 2020 One of the problems of oil and gas geology, not finally solved, is a mechanism of hydrocarbons migration and oil and gas deposits formation. It is well known that for production of deposits the presence of not only parent rocks, rocks-collectors and roof-

Energies, 2021 The Dongsha Island (DS) is located in the mid-northern South China Sea continental margin. The waters around it are underlain by the Chaoshan Depression, a relict Mesozoic sedimentary basin, blanketed by thin Cenozoic sediments but populated with ...

Electric Discharge in Erupting Mud
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Self‐ignition during the explosive eruption of mud volcanoes can create flames that in some cases reach heights that exceed hundreds of meters. To study the controls on electrical discharge in natural mud, we performed laboratory experiments using a ...

Numerical modelling of mud volcanoes and their flows using constraints from the Gulf of Cadiz [PDF]
, 2003 It is estimated that the total number of submarine mud volcanoes is between 1000 and 100 000. Because many are associated with greenhouse gases, such as methane, it is argued that the global flux of these gases to the atmosphere from the world’s ...
