The Explorer Seamount is a seamount located in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of British Columbia, Canada. It is on the Explorer Ridge, a tectonic spreading centre that separates the Pacific and Explorer plates and so the volcanism is rift-related. It is the namesake of the Explorer Ridge.
Explorer Seamount is named after the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey ship, which operated from 1940 to 1943 in the northern Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Alaska.[1]
