The #Scientist Who Decodes the Songs of #UnderseaVolcanoes
https://www.quantamagazine.org/she-decodes-quakes-from-undersea-volcanoes-and-taylor-swift-20231108/"A #volcanologist at Western Washington University, Jackie Caplan-Auerbach is also a #seismologist, someone who uses the jiggles of #earthquakes to understand #geophysics. And it just so happens that active #volcanoes are prodigious #earthquake producers; they make as much #seismic noise as they can muster."

Scientists have discovered more than 19,000 undersea volcanoes using new seamount maps. These unexplored volcanoes could host diverse life forms and mineral resources. They could also help us understand plate tectonics, ocean mixing, and climate change.
