| Popis: | The Tuzo Wilson Seamounts are two submarine volcanic edifices that are located 50 km southwest of the Queen Charlotte Islands, offshore British Columbia. These geologically-recent features have formed on the boundary between the Pacific and Explorer plates in the vicinity of their triple junction with the North American plate. Seafloor photographs, acoustic images and conductivity-temperature surveys have been used to elucidate tectonic relationships and to detect hydrothermal activity.
