Mega‐Depressions on the Cocos Ridge: Links Between Volcanism, Faults, Hydrothermal Circulation, and Dissolution

Abstract High‐resolution bathymetry and three‐dimensional seismic data along the Cocos Ridge reveal a 245 km2 field of ∼1–4 km in diameter seafloor depressions. The seafloor depressions are part of a two‐tiered honeycomb pattern. The lower‐tier depressions have steep faults that truncate strata with...
