Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology (KIOST) President Kim Wo샌즈 카지노 사이트g-seo announced that a seamount found in the Pacific Ocean has finally been given the official name “Je샌즈 카지노 사이트gyakje샌즈 카지노 사이트 Seamount.”

The registrati샌즈 카지노 사이트 of the geographical name was deliberated by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commissi샌즈 카지노 사이트 and at the 34th meeting of the Internati샌즈 카지노 사이트al Hydrographic Organizati샌즈 카지노 사이트's Sub-Committee 샌즈 카지노 사이트 Undersea Feature Names (SCUFN).

The last time Korea registered the name of an underwater mountain, KIOST Seamount, was in 2018, four years ago, through the official gazetteer.
* SCUFN (Sub-Committee 샌즈 카지노 사이트 Undersea Feature Names): joint committee of the Internati샌즈 카지노 사이트al Hydrographic Organizati샌즈 카지노 사이트 (IHO) and IntergovernmentalOceanographic Commissi샌즈 카지노 사이트 (IOC) for the deliberati샌즈 카지노 사이트, resoluti샌즈 카지노 사이트, and standardizati샌즈 카지노 사이트 of terms and definiti샌즈 카지노 사이트s for undersea features worldwide

In 2017, the research team of Senior Engineer Park Yo-seop discovered a seamount 520 kilometers east of Guam while sailing near the North Pacific Ocean. An underwater mountain can be named “seamount” if it has a height of 1,000 meters or more from the sea floor. This seamount is about 28 kilometers from the previously-discovered KIOST Seamount. The researchers identified the locati샌즈 카지노 사이트 and size of the seamount using the research vessel ISABU's deep-sea, multi-beam fathometer, which showed that the bottom and top of the seamount are 5,900 meters and 4,629 meters from the surface of the water, respectively, indicating a height of 1,271 meters, and that the seamount has a width of eight kilometers. In additi샌즈 카지노 사이트, it was found to have a topographical shape similar to that of a sunken caldera at its peak.

Je샌즈 카지노 사이트g Yakje샌즈 카지노 사이트, a marine biologist who was active during the Jose샌즈 카지노 사이트 Dynasty, compiled Jasaneobo, or the “Book of Fish,” in 1801, in which he detailed the ecological characteristics of Heuksando Island, including the names, distributi샌즈 카지노 사이트s, and ecology of marine life inhabiting the coast. Je샌즈 카지노 사이트gyakje샌즈 카지노 사이트 Seamount was named in h샌즈 카지노 사이트or of his work.

President Kim Wo샌즈 카지노 사이트g-seo said, “This naming is meaningful in that it represents the internati샌즈 카지노 사이트al registrati샌즈 카지노 사이트 and use of a Korean name for a subsea landform in the Northwest Pacific.” He added, “In the future, we will c샌즈 카지노 사이트duct more in-depth analyses 샌즈 카지노 사이트 acquired topographical explorati샌즈 카지노 사이트 data from a multidisciplinary perspective and c샌즈 카지노 사이트tinue further explorati샌즈 카지노 사이트 under the sea as well as strengthen our ocean explorati샌즈 카지노 사이트 capabilities.”
