A Geophysical Review of the Seabed Methane Seepage Features and Their Relationship with Gas Hydrate Systems by Jinxiu Yang, Mingyue Lu, Zhiguang Yao, Min Wang, Shuangfang Lu, Ning Qi, Ying Xia

“…Results show that seabed methane seepage sites are often manifested as methane flares, pockmarks, deep-water corals, authigenic carbonates, and gas hydrate pingoes at the seabed, most of which are closely related to vertical fluid migration structures like faults, gas chimneys, mud volcanoes, and unconformity surfaces or are located in the landward limit of gas hydrate stability zone (LLGHSZ) where hydrate dissociation may have released a great volume of methane. Based on a comprehensive analysis of these features, three major types of seabed methane seepage are classified according to their spatial relationship with the location of LLGHSZ, deeper than the LLGHSZ (A), around the LLGHSZ (B), and shallower than LLGHSZ (C). …”

Measurement report: The ice-nucleating activity of lichen sampled in a northern European boreal forest by U. Proske, U. Proske, U. Proske, M. P. Adams, G. C. E. Porter, M. A. Holden, M. A. Holden, J. Bäck, B. J. Murray

“…This novel finding may be especially important in this snow-covered habitat where few, if any, other biological INP sources are available. The great terrestrial abundance of lichens in Hyytiälä, and around the world, calls for further research to combine their ice-nucleating ability with dispersal studies to evaluate the flux of lichenous INPs into the atmosphere, as well as to what extent these particles reach heights and locations where they might influence cloud properties.…”
