From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- The Hawaiian – Emperor seamount chain — a series of volcanoes and seamounts extending across the Pacific Ocean in Oceania.
- The chain has been produced by the southwards movement of the ocean crust over the Hawaiʻi hotspot, from the Cretaceous Period of the Mesozoic Era through the present−day Holocene epoch of the Cenozoic Era.
