Protracted post-glacial hydrocarbon seepage in the Barents Sea revealed by U–Th dating of seep carbonates

The hydrocarbon seepage chronology during deglaciation across the formerly glaciated Barents Sea was established using uranium-thorium (U–Th) dating of seep carbonates. Seep carbonates were sampled with remotely operated vehicles (ROV) from the seafloor at three active hydrocarbon seeps (water depth...
