报告内容摘要：
    Gas hydrate is an ice-like material, in which gas molecules occupy the cages constructed with water molecules via hydrogen bond. Due to its huge amount, natural gas hydrate has been taken as a promising natural energy resource. Due to the special property of gas hydrate, being stable only at relatively high pressure and low temperature, it is difficult to recover intact gas hydrate sample. As a result experimental study is critical for understanding the characteristics of natural gas hydrate. In this presentation, the experimental methods for characterizing natural gas hydrate sample, and lab-based investigations of the physical and chemical properties of gas hydrates, which affect for the occurrence of gas hydrate in natural environment, will be discussed.
