GEBCO: discoverer and year of discovery (en): Associated meeting: SCUFN-32. Proposer: Japanese Committee on Undersea Feature Names (JCUFN). History: 2019.,"Discoverer: Japanese survey vessel ""Shoyo"". Year of discovery: 2001. History: Named after the Japanese volcanologist and petrologist Dr. Hiroyuki Fukuyama (1947-1984). As a young volcanologist at the University of Tokyo, he worked on the genesis of island-arc magma, resulting in a major influence on the world volcanological and geological community. He and his colleagues proposed a quantitative model of the mantle wedge and possible mechanism for generating island-arc basalt magmas. He also worked on the geology of the Minami Io-To Island (formerly, Minami Iwo-Jima Island), an inaccessible volcano in the northernmost tip of the East Mariana Ridge. He died in an accident duri |
