Figure 1. Map showing the study area in shaded relief. Illumination angle is 325 degrees. The red contour represents the 120-meter isobath, and blue contours represent isobaths at a 500-meter contour interval. The red box in the inset map shows the extent of relief map. Abbreviations: km-kilometers, m-meters. |
