Welcome to WikiProject Seamounts, a collaboration area and group of editors dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of seamounts and related subjects. For more information on WikiProjects in general, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject and the Guide to WikiProjects.
Goals[edit]
- This WikiProject aims to enhance information on seamounts, volcanology, igneous petrology, and related articles.
Scope[edit]
- All articles about seamounts, mid-ocean ridges, and other oceanic mountain structures.
- Also articles about many types of seamounts (guyots, submarine volcanoes, submerged continental fragments) are within the scope.
- Articles about some oceanic species are included within the project's scope because of their association with seamounts.
- Articles about some marine protected areas which have been set aside primarily because of their seamounts.
- Articles about people, places, or other entities notable for their association with a seamount.
Please feel free to join the project and expand its scope in any necessary directions.
