12 volcanoes under the south pole "


A total of 12 volcanoes are located beneath the frozen sea found on the South Pole region. Some volcanoes are still active. In addition, the expedition team also found a 5,000-meter-diameter crater that allegedly formed by volcanic eruptions.

The series of underwater volcanoes are spread across the South Sandwich Islands. It lies secluded and sea water on it partially covered with snow. Phil Leat of the British Antarctic Survey admitted that they themselves were surprised at the discovery. "There are still many secrets of volcanoes under the sea that we can not understand," he said.

Submarine volcanoes are underwater fissures in the Earth's surface from which magma can erupt. They are estimated to account for 75% of annual magma output. The vast majority are located near areas of tectonic plate movement, known as ocean ridges. Although most are located in the depths of seas and oceans, some also exist in shallow water, which can spew material into the air during an eruption. Hydrothermal vents, sites of abundant biological activity, are commonly found near submarine volcanoes.
