= Rosenthal Seamount
{wiki=Rosenthal_Seamount}
Rosenthal Seamount is an underwater volcanic feature located in the Pacific Ocean, specifically within the region of the northwestern Hawaiian Islands. It is part of the Hawaiian-Emperor seamount chain, which is a series of underwater mountains formed by volcanic activity associated with the movement of the Pacific tectonic plate over a hotspot in the Earth's mantle. Seamounts like Rosenthal are generally characterized by their significant height relative to the surrounding sea floor, and they can host diverse and unique ecosystems.
