Objectives
1 Investigate the controlling mechanism of CH4 diagenesis in the marine sediments 2 Construct 3D geostratigraphic model and depict the spatial distribution of CH4 3 Construct 1D reactive transport models to decipher the diagenetic processes of CH4 4 Estimate CH4 fluxes at SWI and SMT and explore their environmental implications
