What else can I help you with?
When a submarine expolres the ocean bottom what type of currents affect it?
deep ocean currents.
When did the first submarine reach the bottom of the ocean?
January 23, 1960. The Trieste made it to the bottom of Challeger Deep which is the deepest point in all the world's oceans.
How do you think scientists collect new evidence about deep ocean?
They go underground and see what there if it is deep they can use a submarine
What is a deep valley with steep sides under the ocean?
A deep valley with steep sides under the ocean is known as a submarine canyon. These canyons are typically formed by underwater currents, erosion, or tectonic activity and can reach impressive depths comparable to those found on land. Submarine canyons provide unique habitats for various marine species and can play a role in the transport of sediments and nutrients on the ocean floor.
The place where the ocean floor suddenly plunges downward is?
The place where the ocean floor suddenly plunges downward is called a submarine trench. These deep underwater valleys form at tectonic plate boundaries where one plate is being pushed beneath another in a process known as subduction. Submarine trenches can reach depths of over 10 kilometers and are some of the deepest parts of the ocean.
Where are deep submarine trenches the most abundant?
Deep trenches are most likely to be found in the western Pacific Ocean, generally the arc between Tonga and the Philippines.
How deep can a sub dive?
The deepest submarine is built to go 10000 meters under water. This is so they can go to the bottom of the ocean floor.
Submarine fans reefs and the deep ocean floor all belong to which type of sedimentary depositional environment?
The deep ocean floor and submarine sand reefs are all made up of limestone environment. Limestone is a sedimentary type of rock that can be found in many places. It falls to the ocean floor when tides rise and fall.
What is the deep steep side valley that originate on the continental slope and may extend to the ocean basin floor called?
Submarine Canyons
What is a deep steep sided valleys that originate on the continental slope and may extend to the ocean basin floor is called?
Submarine Canyons
A canyon on the ocean floor at which the crust bends downward is called?
A submarine canyon is a deep, steep-sided valley cut into the seabed of the continental slope, often formed by underwater currents. It can be a conduit for sediment transport from the shelf to the deep ocean.
What is the temp of the open ocean zone?
surface/ open ocean zone was warmer than the deep ocean. Sunlight can reach the open ocean so the temp. is warm.
