Vents and Volcanoes Mystic550 2011-03-12 | Not too long ago, scientists studying the ocean made a fascinating discovery that has helped us better understand our planet Earth.Down in the deep and dark waters, they found hot springs on the ocean floor releasing warm and mineral-rich fluids - these are called hydrothermal vents.Hydrothermal vents are often associated with undersea volcanoes. This is because the vents are created and sustained by the heat of volcanic activity at tectonic plate boundaries, found throughout the globe.At these locations, seawater seeps through cracks in the seafloor and is heated by molten rock. This causes chemical reactions between the two, and the altered seawater becomes hydrothermal fluid. This hot fluid then jets back into the ocean, forming a hydrothermal vent.

But they are most often caused by an earthquake where there's a sudden displacement of the ocean floor.
