Physical impacts of climate change associated with global warming will tend to stabilize marine gas hydrate deposits. Models have been used to assess the effect that climate change will have on the carbon cycle (Meehl "et al"., 2007:789-790). In the Coupled Climate-Carbon Cycle Model Intercomparison Project, eleven climate models were used. Observed emissions were used in the models and future emission projections were based on the IPCC SRES A2 emissions scenario. Unanimous agreement was found among the models that future climate change will reduce the efficiency of the land and ocean carbon cycle to absorb human-induced CO. As a result, a larger fraction of human-induced
