How are the depths of seas and oceans measured?

Our new ELI today is the first in a series about mapping the ocean and sea floors. 'Measuring the depths of seas and oceans: How is it done? A simple demonstration of how we measure sea floor depths and relief'

This activity demonstrates both ancient and modern methods of measuring and profiling sea and ocean floor depths.

Other activities about ocean and sea floors can be found on our website.
