The Anton Dohrn Seamount is a guyot in the Rockall Trough in the northeast Atlantic. It is 1.8 kilometres (1.1 mi) high and is topped with pinnacles, one of which reaches a depth of 530 metres (1,740 ft). Away from the flat top upon which the pinnacles rest, the slopes fall off steeply into the Rockall Trough and a moat in the sediment that surrounds the seamount. Anton Dohrn Seamount hosts a diverse ecosystem characterized by reefs formed by cold water corals, sponges and xenophyophorans, which themselves host a number of animals. It has been affected by human fishing operations, however.

  • The Anton Dohrn Seamount is a guyot in the Rockall Trough in the northeast Atlantic. It is 1.8 kilometres (1.1 mi) high and is topped with pinnacles, one of which reaches a depth of 530 metres (1,740 ft). Away from the flat top upon which the pinnacles rest, the slopes fall off steeply into the Rockall Trough and a moat in the sediment that surrounds the seamount. It appears to be a volcano formed by basaltic lava and tuff. It formed during the Cretaceous and Paleogene and was proposed to be a source for bentonite layers across the British Isles. After the Cretaceous, subsidence and erosion lowered its top until it sank below sea level. The seamount was discovered in 1958. Anton Dohrn Seamount hosts a diverse ecosystem characterized by reefs formed by cold water corals, sponges and xenophyophorans, which themselves host a number of animals. It has been affected by human fishing operations, however. (en)
  • Der Anton Dohrn Seamount (auch Anton-Dohrn-Kuppe genannt) ist ein Guyot (Tiefseekuppe) im Norden des Rockall-Trogs im Nordost-Atlantik westlich der Hebriden. Er wurde nach dem deutschen Forschungsschiff Anton Dohrn benannt, das ihn entdeckte, welches wiederum nach dem Zoologen Anton Dohrn benannt war. Der Seamount liegt etwa 150 km östlich von Rockall und in der ausschließlichen Wirtschaftszone des Vereinigten Königreichs. Der Fuß des Seamounts liegt etwa 2.100 Meter unter dem Meeresspiegel, der höchste Punkt etwa 600 Meter. Sein Durchmesser beträgt etwa 40 Kilometer. Das Gipfelplateau des Seamounts ist von einer etwa 100 Meter dicken Schicht aus Sedimentablagerungen bedeckt. Vor 70 Millionen bis vor 40 Millionen Jahren traten regelmäßige vulkanische Aktivitäten auf. Der Anton Dohrn Seamount ist von einem kleinen Graben umgeben, der eine größere Tiefe als das umliegende Gelände hat. (de)
  • L’Anton Dohrn Seamount è una montagna sottomarina dalla sommità piatta (cioè un guyot) che si trova nel fossa di Rockall, nella parte nordorientale dell'Oceano Atlantico, a ovest della Gran Bretagna e dell'Irlanda. Il seamount deve il nome alla nave da ricerca tedesca che lo scoprì alla fine degli anni 1950 e che, a sua volta, era stata intitolata al biologo tedesco Anton Dohrn. (it)
  • De Anton Dohrn Seamount is een guyot: een onderzeese berg, gelegen middenin de Rockalltrog ten westen van Schotland. De berg ligt in de exclusieve economische zone van het Verenigd Koninkrijk en is genoemd naar het Duitse visserij-onderzoeksschip dat hem aan het eind van de jaren '50 heeft ontdekt, en dat op zijn beurt is genoemd naar de 19e-eeuwse evolutiebioloog .
