River on the Seabed
About the phenomenon of the river on the seabed has also been described in the Qur'an since ancient times.

Fire on the Seabed
The fire on the seabed is very much like a volcano on land that releases liquid lava and volcanic ash. The temperature can reach 231 degrees Celsius. Although it is very hot, but not enough to heat the water above it and as the whole water is not able to extinguish the fire. About the fire on the seabed has also been described by the Quran since a long time ago. "For the sake of the hill. And the book is written. On the sheet that opens. And for the sake of the Baitul Makmur (Ka'bah). And for the heavenly heavens are exalted. And by the sea, there is the fire in the ground. "(Q.S At-Thur: 1-6).

Brinicle
A brinicle or ice salt creates ice under the sea when the flow of water becomes very cold. This strange sea phenomenon occurs when salt-rich water leaks from the sea ice, then sink into the sea and form a unique type of ice. Brinicle usually occur in cold-water seas such as the North and South poles. This phenomenon can also be very dangerous for creatures that live in the ocean.
