Sonar image shows the submarine Kick-’em-Jenny cone from the NE in 1996
If you ask a volcanologist what their favourite volcano name is, Kick ’em Jenny is often a contender. This brilliantly named volcano is a submarine volcano about 8 km north of Grenada in the Caribbean Sea. It is also one of the most frequently active volcanoes in the eastern Caribbean and is monitored by the University of the West Indies Seismic Research Centre (UWI).
Vertically exaggerated SeaBeam image shows Kick ’em Jenny and newly identified craters and domes discovered in March 2003. Kick ’em Jenny’s summit occurs adjacent to the crater rim at a depth of ~ 185 m. The deepest point on Kick ’em Jenny’s crater floor lies at ~264 m depth. The image’s left side is drawn N-S (i.e. N towards the upper left). Tick marks along the margins are at 0.01 degree intervals, a spacing equivalent to 1.8-1.9 km. The distance between Kick ’em Jenny and Kick ’em Jack is about 4 km. Image courtesy of NOAA and Seismic Research Institute
