While serving with the U.S. Navy in the Pacific during World War II, he was the first to report the existence of the truncated seamounts known as guyots.
The Great Meteor Tablemount is a guyot standing at over 4,000 metres.
Some of these rise above sea level, but the vast majority are submarine features known as seamounts, or if they are flat-topped, guyots.
Guyot has recently started to appear in theater productions.
The vines are generally trained in either single or double guyot.
The volcano has a flat-topped summit (thus making it a guyot) rising about 3000mft -3 above the seabed, to 24mft 0 below sea level.
The limestone cliffs, some 60 metres in height, of the guyot and the rest of the island are covered in dense tropical jungle.
