摘要
The high thermal gradient and heat flow >1000 mW m(-2) on Hakon Mosby Mud Volcano are ascribed to rapid transport of pore water, mud, and gas in a narrow, deep conduit within a 3.1-km-thick glacial sediment unit. The instability is caused by rapid loading of dense glacial sediments on less dense oozes. Changes in pressure-temperature conditions by sudden, large-scale downslope mass movement may induce structural deformation, opening transient pathways from the base of the glacial sediments to the sea floor. This model may also explain slope maxima elsewhere on the margin.
