Possible links with methane seepage and gas hydrate dynamics inferred from authigenic barite records in the northern south china sea
Numerous methane seepage events occurred in periods of low or falling sea level since 330 ka BP, which is attributed to decrease in hydrostatic pressure and subsequent gas hydrate dissociation in the northern South China Sea (SCS). The seepage intensity likely decrease due to gas hydrate stabilizati...
