Low heat flow from young oceanic lithosphere at the Middle America Trench off Mexico

Low heat flow from young oceanic lithosphere at the Middle America Trench off Mexico

Seismic reflection profiles across the Middle America Trench at 20°N show a high amplitude bottom simulating reflector interpreted as marking a phase transition between methane hydrate and free gas in the pore space of both accreted and trench sediments. We determine the depth of the hydrate-gas pha...
