Natural Phenomenon

Hello! In this blog, I'll explain you about some natural phenomenon. That is "Flammable Ice Bubbles"

When you read the word “Bubble” you may think of soap bubbles, or maybe air bubbles in water can be the first image your imagination will create for you, but what about “Ice Bubbles”? That’s a bit weird, isn’t it?
Now if we add the word “Flammable” before it, it will only make it weirder, and harder to believe.
The first thing that I imagined when I read about this was bubbles of Ice that are somehow burning XD
But the reality is more interesting.
What is it?

Flammable Ice Bubbles is one of the most gorgeous phenomena that photographers from around the world risk their lives to capture some photos of it.
To put it simply, these spherical shapes that you can see in the pictures are frozen bubbles of methane stuck under the surface.

Where does it happen?
Most places where this phenomenon has been witnessed are located around the arctic. And one of the most popular lakes where most photos come from is “Abraham lake” in Canada.

How are these bubbles created?
Well if you looked (and it’s almost impossible) deep down on the bed of the lake, you could see dead plants, or even animals dissolving.
It is believed that the bacteria in the decomposing organic matter in the bottom is releasing the methane in the process. The methane travels in forms of bubbles from the warmer deeper levels to the higher and colder levels of water until it freezes just below the surface creating this spectacular and breathtaking scene.

Well as most of you know, the methane is an extremely flammable gas. If one of the bubbles are released into the air and you happened to be lighting a match or smoking a cigarette, it would explode the second it gets in contact with the fire.
That’s why it’s considered dangerous, and not just that but climate scientists claim that the massive amounts of this gas that are being released into the atmosphere in summer are contributing in the global warming which means higher temperatures.

How long has this been going on?
This strange phenomenon hasn't been going on for long it's been doing this for only 11 years.
