Gas hydrate stability zone in shallow Arctic Ocean in presence of sub-sea permafrost [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Vast quantities of gas hydrate could be trapped in the Arctic Ocean, and there is concern that a rise in the ocean temperatures could induce dissociation of these hydrate accumulations, potentially releasing large amounts of methane. In first approximation, the hydrate is not stable in the Arctic shelf because of the low pressure (shallow water), but if we consider presence of sub-sea permafrost in this area the hydrate can be stable. In this context, we define the areas where conditions prevail for gas hydrates stability in the Arctic shelf versus sub-sea permafrost thickness, temperature and geothermal gradient.
