Total Sediment Thickness for the World's Oceans and Marginal Seas (NCEI Accession 0304893)
The Total Sediment Thickness data for the World's Ocean and Marginal Seas is a compilation of sediment-thickness data from previously published isopach maps, ocean drilling results from the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) and the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), and a variety of seismic data.
NCEI decommissioned this in June 2025 with no further updates. Comments and questions may be sent to: ncei.info@noaa.gov.
