Axial Seamount is a well-known underwater volcano that lies off the coast of the Pacific Northwest. It is also referred to as Axial Volcano, Axial Mountain, and Axial Seafloor. Other synonyms for this impressive geological feature include Axial Ridge, Axial Summit, and Axial Plateau. The volcano has been estimated to release around 200,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide each year, making it an important site for the study of volcanic activity and carbon flow in the ocean. Its location and unique characteristics make it an ideal research target for scientists studying geology and marine biology.
