Widespread active seepage activity on the Nile Deep Sea Fan (offshore Egypt) revealed by high-definition geophysical imagery [PDF]

, 2010
Fluid escape structures on the Nile Deep Sea Fan were investigated during the MEDIFLUX MIMES expedition in 2004. Mud volcanoes, pockmarks and authigenic carbonate structures were surveyed for the first time with a high-resolution deep-towed 75 kHz ...

White book [PDF]

, 2011
Methane and CO2 emissions from the two most active mud volcanoes in central Japan, Murono and Kamou (Tokamachi City, Niigata Basin), were measured in from both craters or vents (macro-seepage) and invisible exhalation from the soil (mini- and ...

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.

Biologically-oriented mud volcano database: muddy_db

PeerJ, 2021
Mud volcanoes (MVs) are naturally occurring hydrocarbon hotbeds with continuous methane discharge, contributing to global warming. They host microbial communities adapted to hydrocarbon oxidation. Given their research value, MVs still represent a niche topic in microbiology and are neglected by hydrocarbon-oriented research.

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.

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.

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

Late Cretaceous mud volcanism in the southwestern Songliao basin records slab rollback of the subducted paleo-Pacific Plate underneath NE China

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 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.
