Some of it comes from ancient sea floor salt deposits that have been uplifted then weather and release the salt which reaches the depressions via rivers. Many other rocks weather to yield sodium and chlorine ions that are carried to the lake by rivers. The Sea of Galilee (Israel) is below...

GEOPHYSICAL MAPPING OF A ROCKY COASTAL EMBAYMENT: PRELIMINARY RESULTS FROM USGS SEA FLOOR MAPPING EFFORT IN NORTHERN MASSACHUSETTSHistorically, seafloor mapping in shallow water regions has posed technological challenges, primarily due to the limitations of surficial mapping systems and the dynamic nature ...
#9#- Since the sea covers the greater part of the earth's surface, it is quite reasonable to regard the sea floor as the basic form of the crust of the earth, with superimposed upon it the continents, together with the islands and other features of the oceans. #9#- 既然海洋覆盖着地...
Given the fact that the sea depth increases with age, they proposed that the sea floor must have risen during the pulse period, causing the Cretaceous “transgression of the sea,” a long-known fact in geology. This pulse of spreading, with a long period of no geomagnetic reversal, was ...
“If it’s shallow enough, we’ll usually deploy divers from a boat, and if it’s a bit deeper, we’ll deploy underwater cameras. This allows us to take a closer look at what’s on the sea floor, and we use that information to ‘ground truth’ the satellite imagery.” ...
Today, enough soundings are available to enable a relief map of the Atlantic to be drawn and we know something of the great variety of the sea bed’s topography. Since the sea covers the greater part of the earth’s surface, it is quite reasonable to regard the sea floor as the basic...
biodegradation rate of biodegradable plastics at the shore and the deep-sea floor, where large amounts of plastics are thought to have sunk, reveal that the rate of biodegradation at the deep-sea floor is slower than at the shore, and that the biodegradation rate depends on the depth (Fig....
How did people probably imagine the sea-floor before it was investigated? Our knowledge of the oceans a hundred years ago was confined to the two- dimensional shape of the sea surface and the hazards of navigation presented by the irregularities in depth of the shallow water close to the land...
