The Hidden World of Seamounts

  • Seamounts are important deep sea ecosystems. Breaking the flat monotony of the abyssal plains, these underwater mountains emerge from the mud. Those that rise less than 1,000 m (3,000 feet) above the plains are called abyssal hills, while anything taller is a seamount. And there are at least 100,000 of them, with over half found in the Pacific Ocean near the tectonic plate boundaries. An unsurprising statistic, for Seamounts are formed from volcanism. The same process responsible for the formation of many island chains. At mid-ocean ridges, the converging tectonic plates collide at boundaries called subduction zones. One plate is subducted, or forced down towards the Earth’s molten interior. As it is subducted, the crust melts and becomes magma, which rises through the rock and erupts to form volcanoes and seamounts.

      Completely agree.
      Nat Geo and particularly the Discovery Channel make me switch off within about 30 secs.
      Those 30 seconds usually consist of zooms and fast edits going past quicker than the human eye accompanied by royalty free music the tech found by searching “dramatic” and then a VERY LOUD narrator who sounds more like they should be hosting a game show asks a particularly asinine question.

    Love that you’ve brought attention to these ecosystems. The deep sea is extremely fragile, unknown, and very much under threat. The only reason sea mounts haven’t been mowed down for their cobalt is because it’s currently technologically impossible. That’s not the case for the manganese nodules and methane seeps located in the abyssal plans and deeper... as a science communicator, you’ve done great. As someone who studies the ocean as my job, I genuinely enjoyed this and didn’t feel like it was too elementary or too complicated. And yes, the inclusion of Austin Wintry was a solid decision :).

      Also, at 9:21 you can see a sea spider (pycnogonida), which freak me out because they have like no organs. They share a subphylum (this one being Chelicerata) with Meristomata (horseshoe crabs) and arachnids (spiders, scorpions, and ticks). This particular sea spider is an example of deep sea gigantism, following Bergmann’s Rule, which basically states that you tend to get bigger the colder of an environment you’re in.

    This is the kind of programming that should be on tvs everywhere. I’m so glad I stumbled upon this channel. The narrator reminds me of some kind of young Sir David Attenborough. I can only hope that he is somehow aware that you exist. He’d give you his stamp of approval, without a doubt. Content like this is why I’m glad that I got CZcams premium. I watch more on here than anywhere else.

    I'll gladly put up with ads for your content. Everything is perfect. I agree that it was documentaries and shows that used to be like this that made me want me to become a biologist (still interested but now anthropology bound because I greatly enjoy that (also and unfortunately, I've never been very good at chemistry or math) lol). Anyway, the production is great. I love the details of the video from the footage, narration, sounds, like that of the text, the text itself, easy to understand definitions, music choice and alternatively, the absence of annoying, overbearing, unfitting or distracting music or pop-ups in which I can't focus on what I'm seeing. I don't know, I could go on! I've had to edit this a couple times just to add in all the things I appreciate lol. I really really like these videos. It's also very calming and makes me happy if I'm down in the dumps. Thank you for letting me enjoy biology in this way and keeping my love for it going. Thank you. 🙂
