The flames confirm that the bubbles are methane, the main component of natural gas. By counting and measuring them, Walter Anthony is trying to gauge how much methane is rising from Goldstream ...

The two hypothesized that large methane bubbles rising from the ocean floor might account for many, if not all, of the mysterious disappearances of ships and aircraft at specific locales around ...

An curved arrow pointing right. In recent years, theories have popped up that a rush of methane bubbles from the seafloor could be what's causing ships to sink in the Bermuda Triangle. It might ...

Recent research has focused on understanding the dynamics of gas bubbles released into the water column, which can transport methane to the atmosphere. This research employs various technologies ...

Methane is formed over millions of years during decay processes of dead plant and animal remains under exclusion of air at the bottom of lakes and oceans. At low temperatures and high pressure, it ...

Right: Methane bubbles trapped in thermokarst lake ice. When ice-rich permafrost thaws, former tundra and forest turns into a thermokarst lake as the ground subsides. The carbon stored in the ...

The Abraham Lake ice bubbles are produced naturally and contain methane – a dangerous greenhouse gas. They may look beautiful but they are actually linked to death and decay. The methane is ...

These aren't your average lakes. They're called thermokarst lakes and they're filled with highly flammable methane gas. During the summer the gas bubbles to the surface and enters the atmosphere.
