Beneath the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean, a strange phenomenon has puzzled scientists for decades—a massive gravitational anomaly where the ocean surface dips an astonishing 106 meters lower than ...
“The existence of the Indian Ocean geoid low is one of the most outstanding problems in Earth Sciences,” says Professor Attreyee Ghosh, an Assistant Professor at the Centre for Earth ...
The Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is Earth's deepest geoid low. Its weak gravitational pull makes sea levels here 348 feet lower than average, creating a 1.2-million-square-mile anomaly southwest of ...
