Therefore, the effect of a subducting seamount on an interplate-coupling state is now being debated.
Our observations above the subducting ridge and seamount indicate that the effect of a subducting seamount on interplate-coupling region differs depending on various conditions.
Something perhaps a seamount on the sinking plate pinned the high-slip patch of fault in place for 500 or 1000 years, they argue, while patches around it failed repeatedly in smaller quakes.
The Daiichi Kashima seamount and Katori seamount on the Pacific Plate are colliding with the trench axis off the coast of Ibaraki at the southern part of the Japan Trench.
Our observations above the subducting ridge and seamount indicate that the effect of a subducting seamount on an interplate-coupling region depends on various conditions such as the geometry of the seamount and the friction parameters on the plate boundary.
Sites A, B, and C are located on the flank of a seamount, on the flank of a dip, and on the flank between two seamounts and two dips, respectively.

Watling, L. & Auster, P. J. Seamounts on the High Seas Should Be Managed as Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems.
The P-wave velocity models show the presence of a very large horizontal irregularity related to the seamounts on the extinct spreading center, transition zones from the Shikoku Basin to Kyushu-Palau Ridge, and from the Shikoku Basin to the Izu-Ogasawara Island arc.
However, recent research especially centered at Davidson Seamount suggests that seamounts may not be especially endemic, and discussions are ongoing on the effect of seamounts on endemicity.
Few seamounts on the high seas had enough data to screen, and many of these seamounts may also enhance tuna catch.
Seamounts on the high seas with higher catch were located in the pocket between the Solomon Islands and Tuvalu, and in the high seas area south of Cook Islands.
