英文注释:
Surtsey Island, Iceland

Boulders on Iceland's Surtsey Island may look old, but they are actually as young as the island itself, which was born after volcanic eruptions on November 14, 1963. Iceland constitutes the largest above-sea section of the 10,000-mile (16,093-kilometer) Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a mostly underwater mountain range that zigzags vertically through the Atlantic Ocean.
