Hello,
I'm looking for a shaded relief map of the floor of the Earth's oceans. Someone gave me a link to an NOASS site but none of the mpas they had were true-color, they were all topographical. Any ideas? Thanks Jeffrey |

How would you know what true colour was?

How would you know what true colour was? Phil Meaning, not with different colors representing different depths. I assume the oceanbottom surface isn't red or purple. The National Geographic Society? I'm sure that I've seen such a map included with the monthly magazine. TTT I'd have to get a subscription then, right? I'm right now just looking for the map. |

National Geographic sells maps separately. QUOTE 1981 World Ocean Floor Map This beautiful physical world map, first published in December 1981, captures the oceans and land of the Earth as only National Geographic can. Stunning relief shading accentuates the drama of the Earths underwater world. See the ocean floor, mountain ranges, river valleys, deserts, and continental shelves, in amazing detail and beauty. http://shop.nationalgeographic.com/product...6/4777/120.html |
