Land located below the oceans is primarily referred to as the continental shelf, which is the submerged extension of the continents. It consists of relatively shallow waters and is characterized by a gentle slope. Beyond the continental shelf lies the continental slope, which leads to the deep ocean floor, including features like abyssal plains and oceanic ridges. Together, these underwater landforms make up the oceanic crust and play a significant role in marine ecosystems.
What else can I help you with?
What has oceans and land?
Earth.
Oceans cover more of Earth's surface than land?
Yes, oceans cover more of Earth's surface than land. The oceans cover 71 percent of the Earth's surface and contain 97 percent of the Earth's water.
What is the hydrosphere and where is it located?
The hydrosphere is the liquid layer of the planet Earth, consisting primarily of the oceans. It covers most of the Earth. Above it is the atmosphere, and below it is the lithosphere which is a layer of rock. Some of the lithosphere is exposed, since water does not cover the entire surface. The exposed portion is known as dry land.
What is the earth's geology?
land forms,oceans,climate,etc.
What is the reason that earth's oceans experience more precipitation than earth's land?
Because the earth oceans have more water to evaporate and make water vapor.
What terms means the constant movement of the earths water from oceans to air to land and back to oceans?
Water cycle is the term for the constant movement of the earth's water from oceans to air to land and back to oceans
How does weathering affects earth's oceans and land in constructive and destructive ways?
how does weathering affect earths oceans and land in constructive and distructive ways
Why are there different oceans on Earth?
The Earth has different oceans because of the way the continents are arranged on the planet. The oceans are separated by land masses, creating distinct bodies of water such as the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Arctic oceans.
What is divided into plates that carry all of Earth's land and oceans?
hair.
If the solar energy that falls on Earth what percentage do land and oceans absorb?
Land absorbs about 50% of the solar energy that falls on Earth, while the oceans absorb the remaining 50%. This energy is then converted into heat, which drives the Earth's climate system.
What term means the constant movement of the earths water from oceans to air to land and back to ocean?
Water cycle is the term for the constant movement of the earth's water from oceans to air to land and back to oceans
Why is there a mountain system in all oceans?
Mountains arefound in all the oceans because of uplift or thrust from below. Oceans represent thinner crusts of the earth, by elevation land under the sea is lower than land heights of the continents
