摘要: The WNW-ESE-trending Central Pacific Megatrend is a transbasinal feature comprising several types of geornorphic features—ridges, linear seamount chains, and fractures. First appearing on the satellite altimetry data set, an updated bathymetry effort presented to verify existence such feature. route traced from Banda Sea in Indonesian region South America, distance some 19,500 km. Several proposed hotspot tracks are shown be continuations same lineament. western Vityaz Trench system does not exist. And, based continuous regional base depth 5400 m, Superswell imaginary Additionally, shows that it overlain by El Nino oceanographic phenomenon. Any tectonic processes associated with eastward flow magma surges, as excess heat, may influence onset event heat transfer lithosphere water body.
