The First Cut Is the Deepest: Trawl Effects on a Deep-Sea Sponge Ground Are Pronounced Four Years on

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Few studies have described the effects of physical disturbance and post-recovery of deep-sea benthic communities. Here, we explore the status of deep-sea sponge ground communities four years after being impacted by an experimental bottom trawl.

Is the tidal triggering of earthquakes at Axial Seamount predictive of eruptions?

, 2022
Scientists have long hypothesized that tidal forces can trigger earthquakes due to the change in stress along a fault. This phenomenon is called tidal triggering of earthquakes. My study investigated the tidal triggering of earthquakes at Axial Seamount,

SeamountsOnline: A Desktop Window Into the Lives of Seamounts [PDF]

Oceanography, 2010
SeamountsOnline (http://seamounts.sdsc.edu) is a Web site where scientists and data managers can get information on what species live on different seamounts.

Two New Species and One New Genus of Glass Sponges (Hexactinellida: Euplectellidae and Euretidae), From a Transect on a Seamount in the Northwestern Pacific Ocean

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Hexactinellid sponges often form structural habitats for other organisms and thus support high biodiversity. Two representative morphotypes of hexactinellid sponges were sampled by a remotely operated vehicle along a transect (depths of 2377–2758 m) on ...

Hydrothermal Activity at a Cretaceous Seamount, Canary Archipelago, Caused by Rejuvenated Volcanism

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Our knowledge of venting at intraplate seamounts is limited. Almost nothing is known about past hydrothermal activity at seamounts, because indicators are soon blanketed by sediment.

Short‐Wavelength Seafloor Topography From SWOT Marine‐Gravity Products Using a Transformer U‐Net With Hybrid Loss

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Classical satellite altimetry has limited sensitivity to seafloor topography at wavelengths shorter than about 150 km, leaving short‐wavelength structure poorly constrained away from ship tracks. The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission improves gravity recovery at these scales.

Davidson Seamount Taxonomic Guide [PDF]

, 2008
Davidson Seamount is one of the largest seamounts in U.S. waters and the first to be characterized as a “seamount.” In 2002 and 2006, the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary(MBNMS) led two multi-institutional expeditions to characterize the geology ...

Dual Role of a Subducted Seamount in Megathrust Rupture Initiation and Rupture Barrier

Geophysical Research Letters
Using high‐resolution 3D tomography and a relocated 2010–2022 earthquake catalog, we identify a seamount at 20–25 km depth beneath the Mompiche–Cojimíes region in the coastal forearc of Ecuador.

The Structure and Distribution of Benthic Communities on a Shallow Seamount (Cobb Seamount, Northeast Pacific Ocean).

PLoS ONE, 2016
Partially owing to their isolation and remote distribution, research on seamounts is still in its infancy, with few comprehensive datasets and empirical evidence supporting or refuting prevailing ecological paradigms.

Length‐Based Spawning Potential Ratio Assessment of Key Species From a Remote Recreational Fishery at Diego Garcia, Indian Ocean

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 977-989, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Recreational fisheries in remote regions often operate under limited regulation and data availability, presenting challenges for sustainable management. Diego Garcia, located within the Chagos Marine Protected Area, hosts a unique recreational reef fishery embedded within a highly protected environment. We assessed the stock status of five key
