Geomorphometric Analysis of Submarine Mud Volcanoes: Variability, Evolutionary Trends, and Geohazard Implications

The systematic morphometric analyses of submarine mud volcanoes are widespread yet still poorly understood geological features. Our study reveals that submarine mud volcanoes show significant variability in size and geometry, independent of water depth. Specifically, the mean height-to-radius (H/R)...
