    Seamount sciences : quo vadis?
    (Oceanography Society, 2010-03) Staudigel, Hubert ; Koppers, Anthony A. P. ; Lavelle, J. William ; Pitcher, Tony J. ; Shank, Timothy M.
    Seamounts are fascinating natural ocean laboratories that inform us about fundamental planetary and ocean processes, ocean ecology and fisheries, and hazards and metal resources. The more than 100,000 large seamounts are a defining structure of global ocean topography and biogeography, and hundreds of thousands of smaller ones are distributed throughout every ocean on Earth.

    Defining the word “seamount”
    (Oceanography Society, 2010-03) Staudigel, Hubert ; Koppers, Anthony A. P. ; Lavelle, J. William ; Pitcher, Tony J. ; Shank, Timothy M.
    The term seamount has been defined many times (e.g., Menard, 1964; Wessel, 2001; Schmidt and Schmincke, 2000; Pitcher et al., 2007; International Hydrographic Organization, 2008; Wessel et al., 2010) but there is no “generally accepted” definition. Instead, most definitions serve the particular needs of a discipline or a specific paper.
