| More recently, large concentrations of orange roughy were uncovered on seamounts off Australia and New Zealand, and just as immediately decimated. |
| Since the Early Miocene, thermal decay has led to the subsidence of Cavalli Seamount and other, volcanic, seamounts in the South Fiji Basin. |
| As the rays hover over the seamounts, the diminutive angelfish come up and feed on the parasites that attach to the rays' skin. |
| Cold water reefs, seamounts, corals, hydrothermal vents and sponge beds are increasingly at risk from human activities. |
| The resolution specifically mentions protecting seamounts, hypothermal vents and cold water corals. |
| The rich source of food around seamounts also encourages the growth of suspension feeders on the seafloor, such as corals. |
