Summary

The limits of Gas Hydrate (GH) stability zone contour lines (GH stability thickness zero) shown here is a geographic boundary defined and mapped on basis of U.S. Geological Survey Digital Data Series DDS-35 Gas Hydrate assessment contours that were created in Support of the 1995 National Assessment of United States Oil and Gas Resources. The 1995 CD-ROM released digital map data, figures, and text used in the "1995 National Assessment of United States Oil and Gas Resources -- Results, Methodology, and Supporting Data," U.S. Geological Survey Digital Data DDS-30 (Gautier and others, 1995). The 1995 Assessment Gas Hydrate thickness boundaries were revised and updated according to recent methane hydrate stability zone studies done in [...]
