MUD VOLCANO SHUGO, DEPTH STRUCTURE AND MECHANISMS OF ACTIVITY [PDF]

Геологія і корисні копалини Світового океану, 2020
Most mud volcanoes are located along large tectonic zones within the Alpine and Central Asian folded regions, the Pacific mobile belt and rift regions of the Atlantic and Indian oceans.

Distribution of Gassy Sediments and Mud Volcanoes Offshore Southwestern Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2006
This study presents the results from recent intense marine geophysical surveys conducted offshore of southwestern Taiwan. Mud volcanoes and gassy sediments have been identified along chirp sonar and seismic reflection profile data.

The Thermal Effect of Submarine Mud Volcano Fluid and Its Influence on the Occurrence of Gas Hydrates

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Mud volcanoes and other fluid seepage pathways usually transport sufficient gas for the formation of gas reservoirs and are beneficial to the accumulation of gas hydrate.

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.

Mud Volcanoes [PDF]

, 2009
AbstractThe eruption of mud and magma can be influenced by earthquakes and reports date back more than 2000 years. Dozens of examples of eruptions have now been documented in response to both static and dynamic stresses from earthquakes. Already erupting systems are most sensitive to earthquakes compared to initiating new eruptions.

Seabed gas emissions and submarine landslides off SW Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2018
Methane emissions out of the seabed could seriously affect Earth’s climate and are usually associated with the dissociation of gas hydrates stored in marine sediments on the continental margins.

Mud Volcanoes

, 2010
Mud volcanoes are frequently encountered geo-structures at active and passive continental margins. In contrast to magmatic volcanoes, mud volcanoes are marine or terrestrial, topographic elevations built from vertically rising fluidized mud or mud breccia. Commonly, these structures have a crater, hummocky rime and caldera.

Physical properties and their relationship to sedimentary processes and texture in sediments from mud volcanoes in the Anaximander Mountains (Eastern Mediterranean)

Scientia Marina, 2006
This research focuses on the mud volcanoes Amsterdam, Kazan and Kula located in the Anaximander Mountains (SW Turkey continental margin), which are characterized by the presence of sediments containing gas and gas hydrate.

Mud volcano dynamics in Azerbaijan: the overlooked role of creeping mud flows in landscape evolution [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
Azerbaijan hosts the world's highest concentration of mud volcanoes (MVs) on Earth, including some of the largest edifices that produce kilometre-scale mud breccia flows.

Origins of sediments and fluids in submarine mud volcanoes off Tanegashima Island, northern Ryukyu Trench, Japan

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
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
