New research reveals that fire-ice, or frozen methane which is trapped as a solid under our oceans, is at risk of melting due to climate change, potentially releasing large amounts of methane into the atmosphere. Using advanced seismic imaging, the team found that dissociated methane can migrate significant distances, challenging previous assumptions about its stability.
Research indicates that oceanic fire-ice, or frozen methane, is vulnerable to melting from climate change, posing a significant threat of methane release into the atmosphere.
An international team of researchers led by…
