| 10 m | 30 km² | 0.2% |
| 20 m | 63 km² | 0.4% |
| 50 m | 125 km² | 0.9% |
| 80 m | 254 km² | 1.8% |
| 120 m | 481 km² | 3.4% |
| 200 m | 885 km² | 6.2% |
| 500 m | 2,793 km² | 19.7% |
| 1,000 m | 12,034 km² | 84.7% |

How big is the Vincennes Bay?
About 14,202 km² of water inside its Natural Earth outline, counted from the grid cells that are below sea level.
How much of the Vincennes Bay would be land if sea level dropped?
With the sea 80 m lower, about 254 km² (1.8%) of its water would be land. At 6,000 m lower, 100% would be. This is a simple bathtub model that lowers the sea evenly everywhere.
