Minami-Hiyoshi (center) is seen in this Japan Coast Guard bathymetric image with N to the right. Periodic water discoloration and water-spouting have been reported over this submarine volcano since 1975 along with audible detonations and an explosion. Minami-Hiyoshi lies near the SE end of a coalescing chain of seamounts. Naka-Hiyoshi (upper right) lies to the NW and Ko-Hiyoshi seamount (left) to the SSE.

Resumen geológico

Periodic water discoloration and water-spouting have been reported over the Minami-Hiyoshi submarine volcano since 1975, when detonation sounds and an explosion were also reported. It lies near the SE end of a coalescing chain of youthful seamounts, and is the only vent with recorded activity. The reported depth of the summit of the trachyandesitic volcano has varied between 274 and 30 m. The morphologically youthful seamounts Kita-Hiyoshi and Naka-Hiyoshi lie to the NW, and Ko-Hiyoshi to the SE.
