New England Seamount Chain, Seamount chain in Canada
The New England Seamounts are a series of extinct submarine volcanoes located off the east coast of North America.
This seamount chain was formed from volcanic activity approximately 100 million years ago during the Cretaceous period.
Marine biologists often study these underwater mountains to understand deep-sea ecosystems.
Due to their location and depth, the New England Seamounts are not a common destination for recreational divers.
The chain includes more than 30 major seamounts stretching over 1,000 kilometers.
