1. Marine Provinces

2. Shelf – slope – rise Abyssal plain Mid-ocean ridges Deep sea trenches
Submarine canyons
Abyssal plain
Seamounts and guyots
Mid-ocean ridges
Fracture zones, transform faults
Hydrothermal vents
Deep sea trenches

3. Shelf, slope, rise

4. Note variable width of shelf and location of submarine canyons

5. Getting sediment down to the continental rise

6. Submarine cable
Breaks in canyon

7. Sediment pouring down canyon

8. Found on
abyssal plains

9. Location of mid-ocean ridges
Note fracture zones and transform faults

10. Formation of hydrothermal vents

11. Black smoker

12. ALVIN

13. Tube worms
at smoker

14. Ridges, transform faults, fracture zones
Transform faults offset ridge segments
Fracture zones are extensions of transform faults
Draw relationships and relative motions

15. Black lines = center of ridges
Offsets = transform faults
Long red lines = fracture zones

16. Location of trenches

17. Continental – oceanic convergent plate boundary
Many volcanoes parallel trenches
Ring of Fire around Pacific
