[1] Buffett and Archer (2004) showed a model of the steady state global ocean clathrate reservoir that reproduces drill data and predicts a global methane inventory of about 5000 Gton C. The model inventory is very sensitive to ocean temperature, with factor-of-two changes in methane inventory in response to temperature changes of 1.5 C. Here we explore the potential time-dependent behavior of ...

The guest-free type II Si clathrate (Si136) is an open framework polymorph of that displays unique electrochemical reactions with Li. Li ions are first topotactically inserted into the vacant cages, followed by alloying reaction forms amorphous lithium silicide phase. voltage higher than those seen in other electrodes, suggesting there structural differences formed phases. Synchrotron X-ray tot...
