Mud volcanism, or sedimentary volcanism, represents one of the most intriguing phenomena
of the Earth's crust, with important implications in energy resource exploration, seismicity …

Marine geohazard research has developed during recent decades, as human activities
intensified towards deeper waters. Some recent disastrous events (eg, the 2004 Indian …

Abstract Morphologic features, 600–1100 m across and elevated up to 30 m above the
surrounding seafloor, interpreted to be mud volcanoes were investigated on the continental …

Carbonaceous asteroids may have been the precursors to the terrestrial planets, yet despite
their importance, numerous attempts to model their early solar system geological history …

Mud volcanoes can be large and long lived geological structures that morphologically
resemble magmatic volcanoes. Because of their capricious behaviour and their spectacular …

A new method for estimating the duration of a mud volcano eruption is applied to the LUSI
mud volcano in East Java. The estimate is based upon carbonates at depths in the range …

Mud volcanoes are rapidly-evolving geological phenomena characterized by the surface
expulsion of sediments and fluids from over-pressurized underlying reservoirs. We …

Mud volcanoes and other fluid seepage pathways usually transport sufficient gas for the
formation of gas reservoirs and are beneficial to the accumulation of gas hydrate. On the …

A mud eruption, nicknamed Lusi, began near Sidoarjo, East Java, in May 2006. It has
discharged∼ 10 4–10 5 m 3/day of mud ever since. In order to understand the nature of the …

A 2‐D numerical study of the evolution of Ceres from a “frozen mudball” to the present era
emphasizes the importance of hydrothermal processes. Particulates released as the “frozen …
