And the Seven Seas are…. In Medieval Times…. In Modern Times - Mediterranean Sea North Pacific Ocean Adriatic Sea South Pacific Ocean Red Sea North Atlantic Ocean Black Sea South Atlantic Ocean Arabian Sea Indian Ocean Caspian Sea Arctic Ocean Persian Gulf Southern Ocean

SONAR Important to help map ocean floor Sound Navigation and Ranging

How SONAR works… ocean surface receiver transmitter ocean floor

Differences in the time it takes for the sound waves to leave the boat and then return tell scientists how deep the ocean bottom is.

Side-scan sonar is used to create an image of large areas of the sea floor. This tool is used for mapping the seabed in conjunction with seafloor samples it is able to show differences in material and texture type of the seabed.

Significance of Mapping…

Increases our understanding of currents…
