DOI: 10.1002/ppp.2114
Abstract: The occurrence and magnitude of natural fossil methane (CH4) emissions in the Arctic are poorly known. Emission of geologic CH4, a potent greenhouse gas, originating beneath permafrost is of particular interest due to the potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jpa.2016.154
Abstract: Abstract. Eleven species of chemosymbiotic bivalves are reported from middle to late Miocene methane seep deposits (‘Calcari a Lucina’) in the Italian Apennines, including seven new species and one new genus. The new species are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-27326-z
Abstract: Articulated brittle stars are rare fossils because the skeleton rapidly disintegrates after death and only fossilises intact under special conditions. Here, we describe an extraordinary mass occurrence of the ophiacanthid ophiuroid Brezinacantha tolis gen. et… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14772019.2019.1594420
Abstract: We report, for the first time, the solemyid Acharax svalbardensis sp. nov., from deep-sea methane seep sites on the western Svalbard margin, 79°N. This species is rather small and so far the northernmost representative of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1134/s0001437017010064
Abstract: Authigenic minerals were studied in Holocene shelf sediments of the Laptev Sea (cold methane seep site, water depth 71 m). The study presents the first finds of large hard carbonate concretions with Mg-calcite cement in… read more here.

Flipping for Food: The Use of a Methane Seep by Tanner Crabs (Chionoecetes tanneri)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Marine Science"
DOI: 10.3389/fmars.2019.00043
Abstract: Methane seep habitats are widespread chemosynthesis-based ecosystem that span continental margins and interact with surrounding marine systems. With many of these habitats occurring below 200m, seeps can serve as an important source of nutrients in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3856/vol49-issue2-fulltext-2536
Abstract: The genus Trischizostoma Boeck, 1861 is a cosmopolitan group of parasitic and symbiotic aristoidean amphipods whose distribution is poorly known, with scarce specimens reported principally from pelagic environments until 3655 m depth. In this note,… read more here.
