| 31. | Such a collision from space, Toon predicted, could send tsunami waves 100 yards high sweeping across entire ocean basins.
|
| 32. | At first, the hot, faulted edge of the continent was high and buoyant relative to the new ocean basin.
|
| 33. | The range forms the watershed between the Arctic Ocean ( via Lake Baikal ) and the Pacific Ocean basins.
|
| 34. | They are largest on average in the northwest Pacific Ocean basin and smallest in the northeastern Pacific Ocean basin.
|
| 35. | This has led to the hypothesis that mantle plumes contribute to continental rifting and the formation of ocean basins.
|
| 36. | A model of present-day mass change due to post-glacial rebound and the reloading of the ocean basins with seawater.
|
| 37. | More massive exoplanets would tend to have a regular surface gravity, which can mean shallower and more hospitable ocean basins.
|
| 38. | Such deposits and sediments collect in ocean basins today, replicating the conditions under which oil was formed in the past.
|
| 39. | They are also credited with providing the first real view of major seafloor features such as the deep ocean basins.
|
| 40. | Samples of the oceanic crust and uppermost mantle from ocean basins document that ultramafic rocks there commonly contain abundant serpentine.
