Organisms in the deep sea rely on gravity flows to lay down sediment and then make burrows beneath the seafloor, according to a new study.

A reduction in seafloor spreading millions of years ago may have led to deeper ocean basins and a significant sea level drop.

This supported the theory that Harry Hess had put forth, that the ocean progressivley widens as new sea floor is created along a crack that follows the crest of midocean ridges. In 1966 ...

This reduction, mostly resulting from a global slowdown in seafloor spreading, caused ocean basins to deepen. In addition, the researchers calculated that heat flowing into the ocean from the hot ...
