How deep is the Truxton Swell?
The grid figure is 209 m. We measured it as the depth in the grid at its listed centre point, so a typical depth for the feature, not its deepest or shallowest point. The GEBCO_2026 grid has a value every 15 arc-seconds, about 460 m at the equator, so a very narrow feature can be a little deeper or shallower in reality than any grid cell shows.
Wikidata has no depth figure for this feature, so the grid is our only source for it.
Among the 112 ridges in our list it ranks 77th by depth. The list is the named features on Wikidata with a position at sea, so it is not every undersea ridge in the world.
About ridges
Undersea ridges are chains of mountains. The mid-ocean ridges are where new seafloor is made, as plates pull apart and hot rock rises to fill the gap.
This site lists 112 ridges, 38 of them with their own indexed page. See all undersea features.
