Methane hydrate research and development / Michael J. Cruickshank, Stephen M. Masutani.
Title: | Methane hydrate research and development / Michael J. Cruickshank, Stephen M. Masutani. |
Author(s): | Cruickshank, Michael J. Masutani, Stephen M. |
Date: | 1999. |
In: | Sea Technology. (1999.), Vol. 40(8) (1999) |
Abstract: | Gives overview of gas hydrate sources (permafrost, close to continental shelves and in deep ocean basins) with aim of using them as energy source in many countries. Recovery poses problems as yet. Disruption of sea floor may influence global climate change. Acoustic properties may affect surface layers of hydrate cemented sediments. Changes in acoustic characteristics have important implications for use of sonar devices in defence, seismic exploration and research. |
Notes: | Sea Technology. Vol. 40(8) :69-74 (1999). |
