| Definitionskos:definition | Large circular or irregular Depression created by the release of gas from decomposed hydrate accumulations. Gas decomposition creates hydrofractures through the overburden rocks and sediment, triggering abrupt gas expulsions which blow out the overlying seafloor and collapse of GAS HYDRATE PINGOS (modified after Andreassen et al., 2017). |
