A seamount is an underwater volcanic formation that does not rise at least 1000 meters above the surrounding sea floor. These formations mainly arise from volcanic activity and can develop over time into islands if they breach the ocean's surface. Seamounts can also become flat-topped structures known as guyots if they become eroded.
