Where is the deepest part of the bay? Remember: 1 fm = ~2 m Bathymetric Slopes What is the relief (or depth difference) between points A and B? What is the distance in km between A and B? (draw a line between them, measure it, and then hold ruler up to the legend) Determine the slope of the bay from points A to B as indicated below: fathom/mi ft/mi m/km Remember: slope = relief/horizontal distance Use your conversion factors! Contouring Bathymetry: RULES • Contour lines never split or cross but may merge, indicating a very steep slope • Contours should never spiral • Contours should never stop in the middle of a map • Contours should always point upstream in valleys • Contours should always point downridge along ridges • Adjacent contours should always be sequential We have just introduced you to Exercise A (Sandy Harbor Chart) Use same techniques for Exercise B (Pacific Ocean Chart which is more challenging).

  • Mapping Bathymetry
    Doctoral thesis in Marine Geoscience Meddelanden från Stockholms universitets institution för geologiska vetenskaper Nº 344 Mapping bathymetry From measurement to applications Benjamin Hell 2011 Department of Geological Sciences Stockholm University Stockholm Sweden A dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Natural Sciences Abstract Surface elevation is likely the most fundamental property of our planet. In contrast to land topography, bathymetry, its underwater equivalent, remains uncertain in many parts of the World ocean. Bathymetry is relevant for a wide range of research topics and for a variety of societal needs. Examples, where knowing the exact water depth or the morphology of the seafloor is vital include marine geology, physical oceanography, the propagation of tsunamis and documenting marine habitats. Decisions made at administrative level based on bathymetric data include safety of maritime navigation, spatial planning along the coast, environmental protection and the exploration of the marine resources. This thesis covers different aspects of ocean mapping from the collec- tion of echo sounding data to the application of Digital Bathymetric Models (DBMs) in Quaternary marine geology and physical oceano- graphy. Methods related to DBM compilation are developed, namely a flexible handling and storage solution for heterogeneous sounding data and a method for the interpolation of such data onto a regular lattice. The use of bathymetric data is analyzed in detail for the Baltic Sea. With the wide range of applications found, the needs of the users are varying. However, most applications would benefit from better depth data than what is presently available. Based on glaciogenic landforms found in the Arctic Ocean seafloor morphology, a possible scenario for Quaternary Arctic Ocean glaciation is developed.

Low-lying coastal environments such as the Northern Gulf of Mexico (NGOM) are particularly vulnerable to the effects of SLR, which may have serious consequences for coastal communities as well as ecologically and economically significant estuaries.

  • Ocean Basin Bathymetry & Plate Tectonics
    13 September 2018 MAR 110 HW- 3: - OP & PT 1 Homework #3 Ocean Basin Bathymetry & Plate Tectonics 3-1. THE OCEAN BASIN The world’s oceans cover 72% of the Earth’s surface. The bathymetry (depth distribution) of the interconnected ocean basins has been sculpted by the process known as plate tectonics. For example, the bathymetric profile (or cross-section) of the North Atlantic Ocean basin in Figure 3- 1 has many features of a typical ocean basins which is bordered by a continental margin at the ocean’s edge. Starting at the coast, there is a slight deepening of the sea floor as we cross the continental shelf. At the shelf break, the sea floor plunges more steeply down the continental slope; which transitions into the less steep continental rise; which itself transitions into the relatively flat abyssal plain. The continental shelf is the seaward edge of the continent - extending from the beach to the shelf break, with typical depths ranging from 130 m to 200 m. The seafloor of the continental shelf is gently sloping with undulating surfaces - sometimes interrupted by hills and valleys (see Figure 3- 2). Sediments - derived from the weathering of the continental mountain rocks - are delivered by rivers to the continental shelf and beyond. Over wide continental shelves, the sea floor slopes are 1° to 2°, which is virtually flat. Over narrower continental shelves, the sea floor slopes are somewhat steeper. The continental slope connects the continental shelf to the deep ocean with typical depths of 2 to 3 km. While the bottom slope of a typical continental slope region appears steep in the 13 September 2018 MAR 110 HW- 3: - OP & PT 2 vertically-exaggerated valleys pictured (see Figure 3-2), they are typically quite gentle with modest angles of only 4° to 6°.

  • Arctic Ocean Bathymetry: a Necessary Geospatial Framework Martin Jakobsson,1 Larry Mayer2 and David Monahan2
    ARCTIC VOL. 68, SUPPL. 1 (2015) P. 41 – 47 http://dx.doi.org/10.14430/arctic4451 Arctic Ocean Bathymetry: A Necessary Geospatial Framework Martin Jakobsson,1 Larry Mayer2 and David Monahan2 (Received 26 May 2014; accepted in revised form 8 December 2014) ABSTRACT. Most ocean science relies on a geospatial infrastructure that is built from bathymetry data collected from ships underway, archived, and converted into maps and digital grids. Bathymetry, the depth of the seafloor, besides having vital importance to geology and navigation, is a fundamental element in studies of deep water circulation, tides, tsunami forecasting, upwelling, fishing resources, wave action, sediment transport, environmental change, and slope stability, as well as in site selection for platforms, cables, and pipelines, waste disposal, and mineral extraction. Recent developments in multibeam sonar mapping have so dramatically increased the resolution with which the seafloor can be portrayed that previous representations must be considered obsolete. Scientific conclusions based on sparse bathymetric information should be re-examined and refined. At this time only about 11% of the Arctic Ocean has been mapped with multibeam; the rest of its seafloor area is portrayed through mathematical interpolation using a very sparse depth-sounding database. In order for all Arctic marine activities to benefit fully from the improvement that multibeam provides, the entire Arctic Ocean must be multibeam-mapped, a task that can be accomplished only through international coordination and collaboration that includes the scientific community, naval institutions, and industry. Key words: bathymetry; Arctic Ocean; mapping; oceanography; tectonics RÉSUMÉ. Une grande partie de l’océanographie s’appuie sur l’infrastructure géospatiale établie à partir de données bathymétriques recueillies par des navires en route, données qui sont ensuite archivées et transformées en cartes et en grilles numériques.

  • So, How Deep Is the Mariana Trench?
    Marine Geodesy, 37:1–13, 2014 Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC ISSN: 0149-0419 print / 1521-060X online DOI: 10.1080/01490419.2013.837849 So, How Deep Is the Mariana Trench? JAMES V. GARDNER, ANDREW A. ARMSTRONG, BRIAN R. CALDER, AND JONATHAN BEAUDOIN Center for Coastal & Ocean Mapping-Joint Hydrographic Center, Chase Ocean Engineering Laboratory, University of New Hampshire, Durham, New Hampshire, USA HMS Challenger made the first sounding of Challenger Deep in 1875 of 8184 m. Many have since claimed depths deeper than Challenger’s 8184 m, but few have provided details of how the determination was made. In 2010, the Mariana Trench was mapped with a Kongsberg Maritime EM122 multibeam echosounder and recorded the deepest sounding of 10,984 ± 25 m (95%) at 11.329903◦N/142.199305◦E. The depth was determined with an update of the HGM uncertainty model combined with the Lomb- Scargle periodogram technique and a modal estimate of depth. Position uncertainty was determined from multiple DGPS receivers and a POS/MV motion sensor. Keywords multibeam bathymetry, Challenger Deep, Mariana Trench Introduction The quest to determine the deepest depth of Earth’s oceans has been ongoing since 1521 when Ferdinand Magellan made the first attempt with a few hundred meters of sounding line (Theberge 2008). Although the area Magellan measured is much deeper than a few hundred meters, Magellan concluded that the lack of feeling the bottom with the sounding line was evidence that he had located the deepest depth of the ocean. Three and a half centuries later, HMS Challenger sounded the Mariana Trench in an area that they initially called Swire Deep and determined on March 23, 1875, that the deepest depth was 8184 m (Murray 1895).
