Deformation mechanisms and fluid conditions of mélange shear zones associated with seamount subduction
Lithologic heterogeneity and the presence of fluids have been linked to seamount subduction and collocated with slow earthquakes. However, the...

Upper crustal structure of the Daiichi-Kashima Seamount at the junction between Japan and Izu-Ogasawara trenches, northwestern Pacific Ocean
Subducted seamounts are recognized as structures that influence seismicity in subduction zones. Understanding the detailed structures of seamounts,...

Observed Taylor cap around a seamount intensified by a surface mesoscale eddy in the Northwest Pacific
Observations from 4 current and pressure-recording inverted echo sounders (CPIESs) deployed in the northwest Pacific from 2018 to 2019 reveal an...

Internal-Wave Convection and Shear Near the Top of a Deep Equatorial Seamount
The near-equatorial ocean experiences particular dynamics because the Coriolis force is weak. One modelled effect of these dynamics is strong...

Detectability of Seamount Eruptions Through a Quantum Technology Gravity Mission MOCAST+: Hunga Tonga, Fani Maoré and Other Smaller Eruptions
Seamount eruptions alter the bathymetry and can occur undetected due to lack of explosive character. We review documented eruptions to define whether...

Ferromanganese Crusts of the Peter the Great Seamount and the Vasilkovsky Ridge (Sea of Japan)
AbstractThe structure and chemical composition of ferromanganese crusts formed on the sedimentary cover of the underwater volcanoes of the Peter the...

Origin of Subaqueous Dunes on a Flat-topped Seamount, Dokdo in the East (Japan) Sea, Korea
This study examines subaqueous dunes located on the southern periphery of the flat top of Dokdo Seamount at water depths from 120 to 170 m where the...

Observation of physical oceanography at the Y3 seamount (Yap Arc) in winter 2014
Seamounts affect the surrounding physical oceanography and form unique dynamic processes. The influences of these processes on biological and...

Gas migration signatures over the volcanic cratered seamount, off the Nicobar Islands in the Andaman Sea
The submarine volcanic arc off-Nicobar is seismologically very active with numerous earthquake swarms reported after the tsunamigenic 26th December...

Geophysical Studies of the Seymour Sewell Seamount on the Flank of the Central Indian Ridge
AbstractThe volcanic structure of the Seymour Sewell seamount appears to have formed over a relatively long time in at least two stages. Its main...

Geochronological and geochemical constraints on the petrogenesis and geodynamic process of Hemler, Vlinder, and Il’ichev seamount lavas in NW Pacific
Oceanic intraplate volcanoes with linear age progressions are usually accepted to be derived from melting of an upwelling mantle plume. Several...

The formation of the 8˚20’ N seamount chain, east pacific rise
Near-axis seamounts provide a unique setting to investigate three-dimensional mantle processes associated with the formation of new oceanic crust and...

Benthodytes tetrapapillata sp. nov., a new elasipodid sea cucumber (Elasipodida: Psychropotidae) from a seamount in the Western Pacific Ocean
Benthodytes tetrapapillata sp. nov. was collected from a seamount located on the Caroline Ridge at a depth of 2 289 m, during the cruise of R/V Kexue ...

Basalts of a Seamount on the Eastern Flank of the Charlie Gibbs Transform Fracture Zone, North Atlantic: Petrochemical and Isotopic Evidence of a Microplume-Affected Formation in the Axial Zone of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge
AbstractThe composition of basalts dredged from the slopes of a single seamount (guyot), which is located south of the eastern end of the Charlie...

Caldera-like features located over the Panikkar Seamount and adjacent regions in the Laxmi Basin, eastern Arabian Sea
AbstractThe Laxmi Basin, which is believed to have been formed by the divergence between India and the Laxmi Ridge, contains a seamount chain...

Erratum to: Analysis of differences in nutrients chemistry in seamount seawaters in the Kocebu and M5 seamounts in Western Pacific Ocean
Comprehensive surveys were conducted in the Kocebu deep seamount and the M4 shallow seamount in the Western Pacific Ocean in March 2018 and May 2019,...
