How To Use Clathrate In A Sentence
-
Technically they are clathrates (crystalline solids), similar to ice except that they are not of uniform molecular composition: part of their structure is provided by a ‘guest’ molecule.
-
The methane itself is a powerful greenhouse gas and this leads to further temperature rises and methane clathrate destabilisation -- in effect initiating a runaway process as irreversible, once started, as the firing of a gun.

-
Gas hydrate is a kind of ice - like clathrate hydrate.
-
This creates cage structures called clathrates, which release gas on the tongue as the ice melts, producing a fizzy sensation in the mouth.
-
Although not related to Prof Ryskin's "Methane Driven Oceanic Eruption", the clathrate gun hypothesis works on the basis that rises in sea temperatures can trigger the sudden release of methane from methane clathrate compounds buried in seabeds and permafrost.

-
Methane hydrate is a form of water ice that contains a large amount of methane within its crystal structure, called a clathrate hydrate.

-
All are present in the gas as the monatomic elements and argon, krypton, and xenon undergo condensation to either ices or clathrate hydrates at sufficiently low temperatures.
-
The clathrate gun hyopthesis has received attention lately, although it's been benevolently referred to as a "methane burp" rather than an apocalyptic release of methane that hammered in the nails of past mass extinctions.

-
Methane hydrates are not the only clathrates that can form in the deep ocean environment.

-
If that methane were suddenly liberated from its enclosing clathrate prison the impact on the carbon isotope record would be immediate and severe.
-
Low-density clathrate structures have been observed and modeled at below-ambient pressures and temperatures.
-
That's called a clathrate --- Latin for a "cage, trellis, or grating" -- and all kinds of things can be held in there.

-
Liquid clathrates are two-phase systems consisting of an upper layer (typically pure solvent) with a clathrate species residing in a lower layer in a non-stoichiometric, but fixed, proportion of solvent.
-
