This image shows Davidson Seamount in relation to Monterey Bay and the California coast. As you can see, Davidson is far offshore, beyond the continental borderland area (the continental shelf and the continental rise), with its dramatic submarine canyons. In fact, its base is probably partially buried in deep-sea muds. Image copyright 2000 MBARI.
