The Challenger Deep is the deepest region of the ocean, at approximately 11,000 meters. Yu Haibin, director of the institute said, "The success of Haidou-1's continuous deep diving and scientific research application is an important milestone in China's marine science and technology. It shows...
Another deepest part of the ocean belonging to the Pacific Ocean, this trench lies at a considerable depth of 10.5 km below sea level. Lying close to Kuril Island and off the coast of Kamchatka, this trench is responsible for many ocean bed volcanic activities in the region. The trench was...
Hadal trenches refer to the deepest regions of the ocean (≥6000 m depth) and have a long, narrow V-shaped topography. Due to topographic constraints, hadal trenches have unique hydrological, geological and biological characteristics, and play an important role in the Earth system1,2,3. Thes...
The ambiguity arises in regards to the definition of a continent, for example, whether only mainland Australia is used or the larger region of Oceania. There are also ambiguities in relation to the exact altitude of some of these mountains, for example, when a mountain is situated a ...
surface and the resulting fracture zone became the trench. Most of the deepest trenches are found in the Pacific Ocean, which overlies the so-called "Ring of Fire". That region gets the name due to tectonic activity that also spurs the formation of volcanic eruptions deep beneath the water....
What is the deepest spot on the ocean? Marianas Trench, in the Philippines Marianas Trench Where is the world’s most active volcano? Sangay, in Ecuador Sangay, Equador Where do the most extreme tides occur? Bay of Fundy, in Nova Scotia ...
Located in the heart of the Taklimakan Desert in the Tarim Basin, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the well, known as "Shenditake 1," is a scientific exploration project. Completing this well has strengthened China's ultra-deep oil and gas exploration capabilities. With upgraded domestically-deve...
Millions of metric tons of plastics are produced annually and transported from land to the oceans. Finding the fate of the plastic debris will help define the impacts of plastic pollution in the ocean. Here, we report the abundances of microplastic in the deepest part of the world's ocean. ...
the last ice age, they fashioned the region’s soft rock into huge basins that then filled with water as the ice retreated. The five Great Lakes “are sometimes called a gift from the glaciers,” says Joel Brammeier, president and CEO atAlliance for the Great Lakes, an environmental ...
(D) reads recruitments in other natural ecosystems. The names of samples from sediments were shown as “sampling site (region)_water depth of the site_depth below seafloor.” The black dots in the heatmap boxes indicate outlier values. Red-colored names at the bottom indicate the MAGs with...
