OBS

Dans les profondeurs des eaux froides de l'océan Atlantique sont situés sept monts sous-marins (montagnes sous-marines) appelés «monts sous-marins de Fogo». Ces monts se trouvent au large de la Nouvelle-Écosse depuis des millions d'années, mais c'est seulement récemment que nous les avons découverts et nommés.
