Gas Type of the Paperhydrate Estimate in an Area of Deformation and High Heat Flow at the Chile Triple Junction

Large amounts of gas hydrate are present in marine sediments offshore Taitao Peninsula, near the Chile Triple Junction. Here, marine sediments on the forearc contain carbon that is converted to methane in a regime of very high heat flow and intense rock deformation above the downgoing oceanic spread...
