1,000 Quakes a Day: The Ocean’s Most Dangerous Volcano Is Waking Up

WooGlobe

Over 1,000 earthquakes a day? Welcome to the Axial Seamount, an underwater volcano hidden beneath the Juan de Fuca Ridge in the Pacific Ocean. Scientists are warning that it may be on the verge of another eruption — possibly before the end of 2025. With the seafloor rising and quake storms shaking the ocean floor nonstop, this volcano is becoming impossible to ignore.  In this video, we explore why Axial Seamount is so active, how it's being monitored in real-time, and what this could mean for our understanding of underwater volcanic activity. From past eruptions to extreme marine ecosystems, Axial is not just rumbling — it’s revealing secrets of Earth's inner workings.

00:00An underwater volcano is shaking over 1,000 times a day,

00:03and scientists say it could erupt any moment.

00:06Deep beneath the Pacific Ocean lies the Axial Seamount,

00:09a volcano on the Juan de Fuca Ridge.

00:12It's not just active, it's constantly trembling.

00:15And now, scientists are on high alert.

00:18With live data from the Ocean Observatory's initiative,

00:21experts have discovered a rare quake storm,

00:23a nonstop swarm of tiny earthquakes.

00:26The same pattern happened before eruptions in 1998, 2011, and 2015.

00:31Now the seafloor is rising again.

00:33The signs are clear.

00:35Magma is moving.

00:36Pressure is building.

00:38And yes, all signs point to a possible eruption before the year ends.

00:42But that's not all.

00:44This extreme environment also hosts thriving ecosystems,

00:47showing us how life can adapt in the most violent places on Earth.

00:51Axial Seamount isn't just shaking, it's teaching us.

00:54Will it erupt in 2025?

00:57No one knows for sure.

00:58But one thing is certain.

01:00The ocean floor is far more alive than we ever imagined.

01:03There is no doubt on Earth such aswelling eines such asília

01:04should have been more mountainous.

01:06Things even look out on Earth like soi.

01:08There's no nature of each other it's part of this.
