Scientists have just published the most detailed map of Antartica's seafloor revealing ultra-deep canyons reaching up to ...

Submarine canyons are among the most spectacular and fascinating geological formations to be found on our ocean floors, but ...

Using an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), researchers were able to view the seafloor of the Mariana Trench for the first time in human history.

Megathrust earthquakes are large earthquakes that occur on faults found along the boundaries between tectonic plates. The ...

Launched in December 2022, the satellite actually was built to measure water height across the planet’s oceans, lakes, and rivers. Though not designed for seafloor mapping, scientists have found ...

Bedrock Ocean has developed an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) that runs for up to 12 hours off its lithium-ion batteries while mapping the floor using its sonar and magnetic sensors ...

The map reveals major seafloor and sub-seafloor structures. They include a mid-ocean ridge beneath the Gulf of Mexico with a length about equal to the width of Texas as well as another ridge under ...

A coastal bathymetry map shows the ocean's depth off the Florida Keys. Researchers at the U.S. Geological Survey have developed a new method to measure ocean depth in shallow, near-shore environments.

The results showed that ocean alkalinity, calcite saturation state and the carbonate compensation depth depended strongly on changes to shallow parts of the ocean floor (about 600 meters or less ...

Wolfel is the co-founder and CEO at Terradepth, a startup that is working to both map more of the ocean floor while also building a platform to make that data more accessible and easy to use.

The results showed that ocean alkalinity, calcite saturation state and the carbonate compensation depth depended strongly on changes to shallow parts of the ocean floor (about 600 meters or less ...
