The scientists studied how methane moves between solid and gas forms in artificial methane hydrate. They made samples with different types of methane and measured their carbon isotopes. After a few weeks, they found that the methane in the solid form had a different isotope than when it started, while the gas form had a different isotope too. This shows that methane can switch between solid and gas forms over a few weeks.
