I. Of the 197 million square miles making up the surface of the globe, 71 percent is covered by the interconnecting
bodies of marine water; the Pacific Ocean alone covers half the Earth and averages nearly 14, 000 feet in depth.
The continents - Eurasia, Africa, North America, South America, Australia and Antarctica - are the portions of the
continental masses rising above sea level. The submerged borders of the continental masses are the continental
shelves, beyond which lie the deep-sea basins.
The oceans attain their greatest depths not in their central parts, but in certain elongated furrows, or long narrow
troughs, called deeps. The profound troughs have a peripheral arrangement, notably around the borders of the
Pacific and Indian oceans. The position of the deeps near the continental masses suggest that the deeps, like
the highest mountains, are of recent origin, since otherwise they would have been filled with waste from the lands.
This suggestion is strengthened by the fact that the deeps are frequently the sites of the world-shaking earthquakes.
For example, the “tidal wave” that in April, 1946, caused widespread destruction along Pacific coasts resulted
from a strong earthquake on the floor of the Aleutian Deep.
