These are notable seamounts — volcanoes that grew from the abyssal floor but never broke the surface, or wore down to flat-topped guyots, forming undersea mountain ranges that steer currents, nurture coral gardens and anchor island chains from Hawaii to the Mid-Atlantic. Each profile shows where the peak rises, its nearest country, and a plain-English introduction from Wikipedia.
