Intraplate Seamounts as a Window into Deep Earth Processes [PDF]

Oceanography, 2010
Seamounts are windows into the deep Earth that are helping to elucidate various deep Earth processes. For example, thermal and mechanical properties of oceanic lithosphere can be deter-mined from the flexing of oceanic crust caused by the growth of ...

Morphology and Distribution of Seamounts Surrounding Easter Island

, 1997
We investigate the morphology and distribution of a seamount population on a section of seafloor influenced by both superfast seafloor spreading and hotspot volcanism.

Parazoanthidae (Cnidaria, Zoantharia) associated with glass sponges on the Nishi-Shichito Ridge, northwestern Pacific Ocean, with the description of a new species [PDF]

ZooKeys
Seamounts are biodiversity hotspots that face increasing threats from anthropogenic activities. Seamounts host diverse sessile suspension-feeding organisms such as sponges and anthozoans, which are crucial for seamount ecosystems as they construct three ...

Are seamounts like oceanic islands for fish diversity and speciation

, 2008
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Seamounts can be considered as islands in the deep. For many species, depth is just as much a barrier to dispersal as is the water between islands such as along the Hawaiian chain.

Seamount subduction and accretion in West Junggar, NW China: A review

Geosystems and Geoenvironment
Seamounts are prominent seafloor features that make inhomogeneous oceanic crust, carried by some moving plates and eventually accreted or subducted at convergent margins.

Fish biodiversity of the Vitória-Trindade Seamount Chain, southwestern Atlantic: an updated database.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Despite a strong increase in research on seamounts and oceanic islands ecology and biogeography, many basic aspects of their biodiversity are still unknown. In the southwestern Atlantic, the Vitória-Trindade Seamount Chain (VTC) extends ca.

Midwater Fish Assemblages and Seamounts

, 2007
Seamounts are ubiquitous undersea mountains rising from the ocean seafloor that do not reach the surface. There are likely many hundreds of thousands of seamounts, they are usually formed from volcanoes in the deep sea and are defined by oceanographers ...
