Joseph Gilbert Seamount is a large seamount in the Tasman Sea located 450 km (280 mi) west of the South Island of New Zealand at the southern edge of the Lord Howe Rise.[1][2] It has an elongated northwest–southeast trend, covering an area of about 11,500 km2 (4,400 sq mi) and rising to 2,400 m (7,900 ft) below sea level.[2]

The seamount is a continental fragment that rifted away from the South Tasman Rise and Challenger Plateau during the Cretaceous breakup of Gondwana.[2][3] It is separated from the easterly Challenger Plateau by a 4,400 m (14,400 ft) deep saddle.[2]

Joseph Gilbert Seamount is named after Joseph Gilbert, captain of HMS Resolution (1771) on the second voyage of James Cook,[1] and has been known under a variety of names throughout its history, including Gilbert Ridge, Gilbert Seamount Complex and Gilbert Seamount.[1]
