This is an eye opener. The more I expose myself to these kinds of discovery, the less I'm in wonder at how ancient extinctions and climate changes originated.
Here is a buffet of seamounts worldwide. There never needed to be a surface origin to afflict such devastation in a prehistoric scenario, It's all here on the ocean floor.
Just a slight waking on the part of this massive array, is quite enough to end the current world paradigm we enjoy, possibly for centuries.
