Arctic Mid Ocean Ridge
The Arctic Mid Ocean Ridge is located north of Greenland in the Arctic Ocean brrrr...
The profile line that I drew and used for a profile reference is labeled in the photo and is 183mi in length. You can see the visual of the different elevations in that area of the ridge. At the lowest point it is around 15,000ft below sea level. At the tallest point in the ridge of this section it reaches around 6,000ft below sea level. The profile topography is varied and changes in slope greatly and often.
In this picture I have labeled the ridge with the perpindicular line being the profile I measured. The circle is a plateau area next to the ridge. You can see how these two areas came together to make the ridge.
