A first assessment of the distribution and abundance of large pelagic species at Cocos Ridge seamounts (Eastern Tropical Pacific) using drifting pelagic baited remote cameras.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Understanding the link between seamounts and large pelagic species (LPS) may provide important insights for the conservation of these species in open water ecosystems.

Volcanic complexes and tecton-magmatic stages of the evolution of the Magellan Seamounts (Pacific Ocean). Message 1: Volcanic complexes

Вестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле, 2022
The paper presents original and published data of radioisotope dating of volcanic rocks of the Magellan Seamounts. These data and available geological materials allow us to distinguish five major volcanic complexes of different ages in the guyots of the ...

Deterministic process controlling the prokaryotic community assembly across seamounts along in the Yap and Mariana trenches

Ecological Indicators
Seamounts are geographically isolated, substrate-rich and highly heterogenetic habitats, where little is known about the population shifts and assembly mechanism of the local microbial communities. In this study, microbes in the sediments across a series

Magnetization of the La Palma Seamount Series: Implications for seamount paleopoles [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1993
Paleopoles determined from seamount magnetic anomalies constitute the major data source for the Pacific apparent polar wander path, but relatively little is known about the processes of remanence acquisition in seamounts. Since magnetic anomalies reflect both natural remanence (NRM) and the induced field, it is important first to assess whether the NRM

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Seamount Discovery Tool Aids Navigation to Uncharted Seafloor Features [PDF]

Oceanography, 2010
Wessel et al. (2010) highlight the need for a systematic mapping of seamounts in ocean basins. They estimate that 100,000 or 90% of the seamounts greater than 1-km tall are unobserved by either ship soundings or satellite gravity.

Integrative Taxonomy Reveals Two New Species of Stalked Barnacle (Cirripedia, Thoracica) From Seamounts of the Western Pacific With a Review of Barnacles Distributed in Seamounts Worldwide

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Dozens of samples of stalked barnacles were collected from deep-sea seamounts of the tropical western Pacific by remotely operated vehicles during two expeditions in 2017 and 2018.

On the occurrence of the snakefish Trachinocephalus myops (Aulopiformes: Synodontidae) in the Azores archipelago

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The snakefish Trachinocephalus myops is an Atlantic species distributed in tropical and temperate coastal waters on sandy substrates. This study reports the validated record of an adult T. myops in the Azores archipelago caught by a fisherman at Faial Island.

Insights into the structure of grey reef shark aggregation, Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos (Bleeker, 1856), in two distinct channels of the Maldivian archipelago, Indian Ocean

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The grey reef shark Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos is one of the most frequently encountered reef‐associated shark species in the Maldives, yet very little is known about its local size structure or population dynamics. This study provides new insights into two aggregations of C.

Ocean Circulation Over North Atlantic Underwater Features in the Path of the Mediterranean Outflow Water: The Ormonde and Formigas Seamounts, and the Gazul Mud Volcano

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Seamounts constitute an obstacle to the ocean circulation, modifying it. As a result, a variety of hydrodynamical processes and phenomena may take place over seamounts, among others, flow intensification, current deflection, upwelling, Taylor caps, and ...
