Seamount : a submarine mountain rising above the deep sea floor
Dacite : another type of volcanic rock found in the Marianas
Plate : one of the series of vast segments of thin, mobile blocks that hole up the crust of the Earth, according to the theory of plate tectonics
Marianas Trench : a deep trench in the ocean floor about 60 to 100 miles east of the Mariana Islands caused by the Pacific Plate moving down under the Philippine Plate
Dormant : asleep or inactive
Strike Slip Fault : a fault in which the displacement is largely in the direction of the strike; fault horizontal displacement
