In addition to the great ridges and volcanic chains, the oceans conceal another form of undersea
mountains: the strange guyot, or flat-topped seamount No marine geologist even suspected the existence
of these isolated mountains until they were discovered by geologist Harry H Hess in 1946 He was serving at the time as naval officer on a ship equipped with a fathometer Hess named these truncated peaks for the nineteenth-century Swiss-born geologist Arnold Guyot, who had served on the faculty of Princeton University for thirty years Since then, hundreds of guyots have been discovered in every ocean but the Arctic Like offshore canyons, guyots present a challenge to oceanographic theory They are
Trang 6believed to be extinct volcanoes Their flat tops indicate that they once stood above or just below the surface, where the action of waves leveled off their peaks Yet today, by definition, their summits are at least 600 feet below the surface, and some are as deep as 8,200 feet Most lie between 3,200 feet and 6,500 feet Their tops are not really flat but slope upward to a low pinnacle at the center Dredging from
the tops of guyots has recovered basalt and coral rubble, and that would be expected from the eroded
tops of what were once islands Some of this material is over 80 million years old Geologists think the drowning of the guyots involved two processes: The great weight of the volcanic mountains depressed the sea floor beneath them, and the level of the sea rose a number of times, especially when the last Ice Age ended, some 8,000 to 11.000 years ago
