New Zealand Seamounts Catalogue

The seamount catalogue presents a synopsis of the physical characteristics of seamounts within the “New Zealand region” (taken here as the area bounded by 24°S, 167°W, 57°S, and 157°E). Data are collated on features with a vertical elevation of 250m or greater (thus, the term seamount is used here for discrete bathymetric features with ≥250 m of relief) with some features of 100 m or greater that are significant for the fishing industry being also included, but have presented these data in a way that accounts for differing interpretations of the terminology for undersea features of various sizes. The catalogue is maintained as a MS Excel spreadsheet.
