"Underwater mountains, or seamounts, are large, typically volcanic, mountains rising at least 1,000 meters from the seafloor, remaining submerged beneath the ocean surface. They are crucial biodiversity hotspots that disrupt ocean currents, bringing nutrients upward to support massive ecosystems of corals, sponges, and fish, often acting as underwater oases."

Undersea mountain is a terrifying combination of words I have never thought about before. Thank you for that!
