The trench geomorphic feature layer represents the spatial extent of the trenches of the worlds oceans based on interpretation of the SRTM30 plus v7 global bathymetry model. The layer is one of the 25 layers that make up the global seafloor geomorphic features map (Harris et.al. 2014). The global seafloor geomorphic features map is intended to support ocean management including feature inventories, spatial planning and biodiversity conservation.

In this study trenches were mapped by selecting closed bathymetric contours that defined basins contained within the trench feature, and then joining the basin segments together by hand digitizing along more elevated sections. In this way, bridge features were also identified</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN><SPAN> (as coinciding with infilled sections of trenches; see section on “bridges”</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN><SPAN>). </SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
The global seafloor geomorphic features map has been produced through a collaboration between Geoscience Australia, GRID-Arendal and Conservation International.
