Thermogenic methane and hydrogen generation in subducted sediments of the Nankai Trough
Abstract Active and widespread CH4 accumulations and emissions in the Nankai Trough subduction zone are attested by numerous mud volcanoes, gas plumes, and gas hydrates containing biogenic and thermogenic CH4. However, the source rocks of the thermogenic CH4 and the geological source of H2 for micro...
