The study suggests that there could be over a million underwater volcanoes across the sea floor, but only 20% of the seafloor has been mapped by ships.

Three-quarters of all of Earth's volcanic activity happens in deep water.Underwater volcanoes can trigger tsunamis but are usually passive lava flows along the seafloor due to immense water pressure.
