Mud ocean ridges, often referred to as mud volcanoes or mud diapirs, are geological formations that occur on the ocean floor, where pressurized mud or sediment is forced upward through cracks in the Earth's crust. This process can result in the eruption of mud, gas, and other materials, creating mounds or ridges. These features are often found in areas with active tectonic activity and can provide insights into sub-seafloor processes and hydrocarbon reservoirs. Additionally, they can create unique ecosystems that support various marine life.
