Аннотация:The master’s thesis is submitted to the Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo (UiO), in the candidacy of the Master of Science in Geosciences following the Sedimentology, Paleontology, and Stratigraphy program. This multidisciplinary thesis investigates six mud volcanoes located in Azerbaijan. This region hosts the highest mud volcano density on Earth. The targeted structures are located in a poorly studied part of the country featuring a large variety of surface fluid degassing manifestations. The obtained results serve as a contribution to improving knowledge on mud volcano morphologies and their subsurface plumbing system, their gas composition, and quantification on their gas emissions. All data were collected in the field in the framework of the HOTMUD project (PI Adriano Mazzini).
