Electric Discharge in Erupting Mud
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 ...

The mud volcanoes at Santa Barbara and Aragona (Sicily, Italy): a contribution to risk assessment [PDF]
The Santa Barbara and Aragona areas are affected by mud volcanism (MV) phenomena, consisting of continuous or intermittent emission of mud, water, and gases. This activity could be interrupted by paroxysmal events, with an eruptive column composed mainly

Linking Mediterranean brine pools and mud volcanism [PDF]
Methane seepage at mud volcanoes around the world continues to be of broad international interest for a number of reasons.Among these, seafloor methane is a potentially important contributor to global warming. In addition, dewatering and degassing of sediments and the formation of fluid migration pathways is important not only to sedimentologists, but ...

NEW DATA ON SEASONAL MINERALS OF MUD VOLCANOES IN AZERBAIJAN
The article discusses the morphology and material composition of seasonal minerals of mud volcanoes in Azerbaijan Mud volcanism is a complex and rather unexplored geological phenomenon. Mud volcanoes are known in Turkmenistan, Dagestan, Georgia, Sakhalin,

Mud volcanoes are topographic features through which over-pressurized sediments are intruded upward and erupted, transporting fluids and sediments from the deep subsurface to the surface/seafloor. To understand material and biogeochemical cycling through

Seabed gas emissions and submarine landslides off SW Taiwan
Methane emissions out of the seabed could seriously affect Earthâs climate and are usually associated with the dissociation of gas hydrates stored in marine sediments on the continental margins.

Affluence of Data on Volcanism in The Gulf of Cadiz
This paper reports the recent progress on mud volcanism data accumulation in the case of the Gulf of Cadiz area. The discovery of giant mud volcanoes, deep coral reefs, and gas hydrates in 1999, from the Guadalquivir Diapiric Ridge to the Larache ...

Sedimentary sources of the mud-breccia and mud volcanic activity in the Western Alboran Basin [PDF]
During the TTR-17 Leg 1 cruise in the West Alboran Basin, gravity cores were acquired from three mud volcanoes (MVs): Dhaka, Carmen and the recently discovered Maya. This paper presents micropaleontological and radiocarbon dating results from the three mud volcanoes, using cores containing mud breccias overlain by and interbedded with hemipelagic ...

Geoelectric heterogeneities of the Kerch iron ore basin
The three-dimensional geoelectric model of the Earth’s crust and upper mantle of the Kerch Peninsula has been built for the first time based on the results of experimental observations of the Earth’s low-frequency electromagnetic field, carried out in ...

Mud volcanoes can cause various geohazards, so it is very important to know their activity level and their distribution. Surface sediments were collected from four submarine mud volcanoes (MVs) off Tanegashima (SW Japan), namely, MV1, MV2, MV3, and MV14.
