Researchers suggest that eruptions from deep-water volcanoes may have a huge role in quickening an Earth-wide temperature boost. Scientists at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in New York came to the conclusion that there is a connection between variations in the ocean level and the ridges and valleys along the ocean bottom.
The scientists who conducted these recent investigations believe the vast extends of underwater volcanoes – which stretch on 37,000 miles along the sea depths – could deliver sufficient carbon dioxide to impact the Earth’s temperature.
