Actually a British team reported on this about 10 years ago. They reported mainly on the effect. NASA has done a commendable job of detailing and analyzing the cause. This is an example of how science should work.

I had a circa 1850 book detailing these ocean volcanoes, how they work and what they spew. Wish I still had the book.

Also have/had an old map c 1900 showing hot spots in the Pacific. Probably still have that.....somewhere.

True.

I remember reading about the initial findings. I also remember people saying it was fake.
