| Notes |
GEBCO: associated meeting, proposer and year of proposal (en): Associated meeting: SCUFN-29. Proposer: Mark Dyer, New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB); and Adam Greenland, New Zealand Hydrographic Office (LINZ). Year of proposal: 2016. |

GEBCO: discoverer and year of discovery (en): Discoverer: New Zealand research vessel "Tui". Year of discovery: 1965. History: Named by Dr Alick Kibblewhite while surveying the "Rumble" volcanoes in the mid-1960s with HMNZS Tui. Rumble volcanoes were named for the "rumble" sound recorded on the RNZ Navy hydrophone network near Auckland when erupting. The "Silent" volcanoes were not recorded on the network, but discovered during hydrographic surveys - hence their name. All volcanoes in the vicinity were named either "Rumble" or "Silent" during the early surveys. Subsequent surveys identified Rumble I Seamount and Silent I Seamount to be part of Kermadec Ridge rather than stratovolcanoes. |
|
Additional information (en): This feature forms a volcanic cone. It is located in the Kermadec volcanic arc 13 km north of Rose-Marie Thompson Seamount and 18 km south of Cotton Seamount. Minimum depth (m): 850. Maximum depth (m): 2200. Total relief (m): 1350. Dimension: 16 km x 12 km. |
