DOI: 10.1016/j.ecss.2021.107340

Abstract: Abstract Marine pockmarks are globally widespread seabed depressions, conventionally thought to be formed by the accumulation and expulsion of microbial and thermogenic gas. However, other putative fluids and processes have been implicated in pockmark formation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2017.02.017

Abstract: Abstract After the first discovery of seabed pockmarks in the 1960s and 1970s, many examples of both modern and ancient pockmarks have been reported from sedimentary basins around the world. The exact mechanisms and fluids… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmars.2025.1605830

Abstract: Pockmark development and slope instability are key geological processes shaping the continental slope. In this study, high-resolution multibeam data, subbottom profiles, and a reprocessed two-dimensional seismic profile were used to identify and analyze the complex… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/bg-16-2221-2019

Abstract: Abstract. We report a rare observation of a mini-fracture in near-surface sediments (30 cm below the seafloor) visualized using a rotational scanning X-ray of a core recovered from the Lomvi pockmark, Vestnesa Ridge, west of Svalbard… read more here.
