Evidence for spatial variability in the geoacoustic parameters of the Atlantis II seamount flanks [PDF]
JASA Express LettersDuring a May 2023 cruise of the New England Seamount Acoustics Experiment, a near-surface airgun was fired at 1-min intervals along a nominally semi-circular track centered on the Atlantis II seamount.

Origen del Alineamiento Submarino de Pascua: morfología y lineamientos estructurales [PDF]
, 2014 Indexación: Web of Science; Scielo.ABSTRACT. The Easter submarine alignment corresponds to a sequence of seamounts and oceanic islands which runs from the Ahu-Umu volcanic fields in the west to its intersection with the Nazca Ridge in the east, with a ...

Paleomagnetism of Suiko Seamount, Emperor Seamount Chain
Geophysical Research Letters, 1978 Using data from a topographic and magnetic survey, the magnetization vector of Suiko seamount near the middle of the Emperor seamount chain (44.5°N, 170°E) was calculated. An inclination of −31° ± 9° and a declination of 213° ± 9° was found, although the goodness ratio is poor (R = 1.1).

An assessment of bottom current controlled sedimentation in Pacific Ocean abyssal environments [PDF]
, 2018 The effect of the circulation of polar-sourced dense waters on the deep seafloor is still largely unknown. This paper presents multibeam bathymetric evidence for the existence of present-day contourite drifts on the central Pacific ocean at depths ...

A three dimensional finite element model of wind effects upon higher harmonics of the internal tide. [PDF]
, 2007 A non-linear three dimensional unstructured grid model of the M2 tide in the shelf edge area off the west coast of Scotland is used to examine the spatial distribution of the M2 internal tide and its higher harmonics in the region.

Spotlight 2: Jasper Seamount [PDF]
Oceanography, 2010 Jasper Seamount is a submarine volcano in the Fieberling-Guadalupe seamount trail, located off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. It rises from the 4000-m-deep seafloor to a summit depth of 700 m.

210Pb-Derived Bioturbation Rates in Sediments Around Seamounts in the Tropical Northwest Pacific
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 To evaluate bioturbation coefficients (DB) and mixing depths (L), 210Pb and 226Ra activity was measured in two sediments cores (from water depths of 5,398 m and 4,428 m), which were collected from seamount areas in the Northwest Pacific.

Seamount Fisheries: Do They Have a Future? [PDF]
Oceanography, 2010 Today, seamount fish populations are in trouble following a dismal 30-year history of overexploitation, depletion, and collapse, with untold consequences for global biodiversity and the complex, delicate, but poorly understood, open-ocean food webs ...
