- McClousky et al., 2000
- Stein, 2003., pp. 301. The concept that the lithosphere cools with time such that isotherms deepen with the square root of age has many observable consequences. The simplest is that ocean depth should vary with age, which make sense, because spreading centers are ridges precisely because the ocean deepens on either side. To model this effect, we consider the mass in two columns, one at the ridge and one at age t, and invoke the idea of isostasy, which means that the masses in two columns balance (Figi.5.3-6).
- It contracts, so its volume decreases, resulting in an increase in density. The cooling and shrinking of the lithosphere result in an increase in its density and so, as a result of isostasy, it subsides into the asthenosphere and ocean depth increases away from the ridge, from about 2–3 km at oceanic ridges to about 5–6 km for abyssal plains. Indeed, one of the more remarkable observations of ocean-floor bathymetry is that ocean floor of similar age always occurs at similar depths beneath sea level (Figure 10). The relationship between mean oceanic depth ( d in metres) and lithosphere age ( t in Ma) can be expressed as: d = 2500 + 350 t ½ ( 1 ) If the depth of the ocean floor can be determined, then the approximate age of the volcanic rocks from which it formed may also be estimated, and vice versa.
- The instrument has no connection to the sea surface and is recovered by acoustic or time release.
- V (Sea)=1525 m/s V (Sediments)= 1800 m/s V (Metamorphic) =2500
- Profiles Pr 1, Pr 2 and the northern part of Pr 4 cross the area of Crete (Bohnhoff et al., 2001), profiles Pr 3, southern part of Pr 4 and Pr 5 (Makris and Broenner, 2001; Broenner, 2003) cross the Mediterranean Ridge. Numerical values indicate the Vp velocities in kilometers per second.
- Figure 2. DART tsunameters are now used in a few strategic locations in the deep ocean to measure tsunami waves unaltered by shoaling and refl ections at a coast. The tsunameters sense the pressure induced on the ocean bottom by passing tsunami waves, transmit these data by acoustic modem to an oceansurface buoy moored nearby, and from the buoy the data are sent via satellite to the warning centers.
