Seafloor Geography


Good Afternoon Gentlemen,

You'll notice the new link in the "Class Related Files & Links" portion of this Oceanography Blog.

The link is to "Seafloor Geography Files."  Clicking on that link will take you to that folder in my "Google Docs." Please note the following:

1. Download and save the PDF files.  This contains the lists of seafloor geographic/bathymetric features that we'll be learning this trimester.  Feel free to print it.

2. You must have the latest version of Google Earth installed on your computer.  If you don't have it, please do that.  Make sure you have all of stuff saved.

3.  Download the five KMZ files.  Each of these files contains placemarks that I made for each of the features on the aforementioned list.  The placemarks are sorted by ocean basin, by symbol, and by color.  When you download each of them, they should display in Google Earth.  Make sure you save each file on your computer  before closing Google Earth.  This will allow you to avoid continually downloading them.

Good luck, and let me know how it goes.  These are my first KMZ files.
