In a recently published study, researchers contend that they have found a “very dynamic situation” relating to the “development of the Black Sea since the last ice age.” Their analysis of the state of gas hydrate deposits – methane trapped in water molecules that physically looks like ice – is a delayed response to climate phenomena.
Investigators using coring technology, geophysical logging, and in-situ temperature measurements said that data from drill sites in the Romania section of the Black…
