Seamounts and guyots in the western pacific hold the key to many important problems in geology; goals are to 1) improve understanding of the pacific plate motion through the geochronological and magnetic study of these seamounts that have probable ages between 90-150ma. 2) study the origin of the south pacific isotope and thermal anomaly. 3) study the origin of western pacific guyots.
