  • The New England Seamounts is a chain of over twenty underwater extinct volcanic mountains known as seamounts. This chain is located off the coast of Massachusetts in the Atlantic Ocean and extends over 1,000 km from the edge of Georges Bank. Many of the peaks of these mountains rise over 4,000 m from the seabed. The New England Seamounts chain is the longest such chain in the North Atlantic and is home to a diverse range of deep sea fauna. Scientists have visited the chain on various occasions to survey the geologic makeup and biota of the region. The chain is part of the Great Meteor hotspot track and was formed by the movement of the North American Plate over the New England hotspot. The oldest volcanoes that were formed by the same hotspot are northwest of Hudson Bay, Canada. Part of the seamount chain is protected by Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument. A variety of different names have been used to refer to this seamount range, including the Kelvin Seamounts, Kelvin Seamount Group, Kelvin Banks, New England Seamount Chain and the Bermuda-New England Seamount Arc (including the Bermuda Pedestal, which contains the archipelago of Bermuda and Argus and Challenger Banks, and , and other seamounts intervening roughly between Bermuda and Nashville Seamount).

  • La New England Seamounts chain è una catena di vulcani sottomarini che si snoda dalle coste del New England verso il centro dell'Atlantico nordoccidentale, in direzione nord-ovest sud-est. Il punto caldo del New England che ha originato questi vulcani, tra i 110 e gli 85 milioni di anni fa, si è trovato sotto al nuovo fondale marino che lentamente si andava formando dalla dorsale medio atlantica. La catena è composta da oltre venti vulcani sottomarini, alcuni di essi risalgono dal fondale marino per più di 4000 metri; con i suoi oltre 1000 km di lunghezza, è la catena vulcanica sottomarina più lunga dell'Atlantico del nord.
