Anton Dohrn Seamount : ウィキペディア英語版 | Anton Dohrn Seamount
The Anton Dohrn Seamount is a guyot in the Rockall Trough in the northeast Atlantic. It was named after the German fishery research vessel which discovered it at the end of the 1950s which, in turn, had been named after the 19th-century biologist Anton Dohrn. The feature rises from approximately 2,100 metres to 600 metres below sea level and has a sedimentary layer approximately 100 metres thick. It arose through episodic volcanic activity between 70 and 40 million years ago.〔O'Connor, Stofferes, Wijbrans, Shannon and Morrissey (2000). (Evidence from episodic seamount volcanism for pulsing of the Iceland plume in the past 70 Myr ), ''Nature'' 408, 954-958.〕 Around the base of the seamount is a slight "moat" where the sea-bottom is at a lower depth than the surrounding terrain. ==References==
