Though Sinton and Bowles have only explored a small portion of the GSC, they already have data that will help them eventually understand how the ridge formed.
虽然辛顿和鲍尔斯目前只考察了加拉帕戈斯扩张中心的一小部分，但他们已有的数据将帮助他们最终了解该海脊是如何形成的。
There are lots of pillow lavas here too, prompting Sinton to form a hypothesis: perhaps the seamounts in this region formed from the same volcanic eruption, made up of many flows?
看到这里大量的枕状熔岩，辛顿立刻产生一个假设：也许该区域的海山都形成自同一次火山喷发的多条岩浆流？
