Patton Seamount is a prominent seamount (underwater volcano) in the Cobb–Eickelberg Seamount chain in the Gulf of Alaska. Located 166 nmi (307 km; 191 mi) east of Kodiak Island and reaching to within 160 m (520 ft) of the ocean surface, Patton is one of the largest seamounts in the Cobb–Eickelberg Seamount chain. It was originally created near the coast of Oregon by the Cobb hotspot 33 million years ago, and was moved to its present location by tectonic plate movement. Patton is one of the most well-understood seamounts, as a major expedition using DSV Alvin in 1999 and another in 2002 helped define the scope of the seamount's biological community. Like other large seamounts, Patton acts as an ecological hub for sea life. Dives have revealed that the volcano is heavily encrusted in sea lif

  • Il Patton Seamount è una montagna sottomarina, e più precisamente un vulcano sottomarino, che fa parte della catena sottomarina di Cobb-Eickelberg ed è situato nel Golfo dell'Alaska, nella parte nordorientale dell'Oceano Pacifico. Si trova circa 166 miglia nautiche (307 km) a est dell'Isola Kodiak e si innalza fino a 160 m al di sotto della superficie del mare; il Patton è una delle più importanti montagne della catena sottomarina di Cobb-Eickelberg.

  • Patton Seamount is a prominent seamount (underwater volcano) in the Cobb–Eickelberg Seamount chain in the Gulf of Alaska. Located 166 nmi (307 km; 191 mi) east of Kodiak Island and reaching to within 160 m (520 ft) of the ocean surface, Patton is one of the largest seamounts in the Cobb–Eickelberg Seamount chain. It was originally created near the coast of Oregon by the Cobb hotspot 33 million years ago, and was moved to its present location by tectonic plate movement. Patton is one of the most well-understood seamounts, as a major expedition using DSV Alvin in 1999 and another in 2002 helped define the scope of the seamount's biological community. Like other large seamounts, Patton acts as an ecological hub for sea life. Dives have revealed that the volcano is heavily encrusted in sea life of various forms, including sea stars, corals, king crabs, demersal rockfish, and other species. (en)
  • Il Patton Seamount è una montagna sottomarina, e più precisamente un vulcano sottomarino, che fa parte della catena sottomarina di Cobb-Eickelberg ed è situato nel Golfo dell'Alaska, nella parte nordorientale dell'Oceano Pacifico. Si trova circa 166 miglia nautiche (307 km) a est dell'Isola Kodiak e si innalza fino a 160 m al di sotto della superficie del mare; il Patton è una delle più importanti montagne della catena sottomarina di Cobb-Eickelberg. Si formò originariamente 33 milioni di anni fa vicino alla costa dell'Oregon in seguito all'attività del punto caldo di Cobb e si spostò successivamente nell'attuale posizione in conseguenza del movimento della placca tettonica. Il Patton Seamount è uno dei seamount meglio conosciuti, dopo che due importanti spedizioni di ricerca compiute con il sommergibile DSV Alvin nel 1999 e nel 2002 hanno permesso di approfondire la conoscenza della sua comunità biologica. Come altre montagne sottomarine il Patton agisce da centro di aggregazione per una vasta fauna marina. Le immersioni hanno rivelato una ricca fauna acquatica che include stelle marine, coralli, granchi reali, pesci pietra demersali e varie altre specie. (it)
