Bien sûr à différents endroits du globe, sortent des océans telle ou telle ile mais ce que je vais essayer de vous transmettre ici c'est une découverte progressive de l'étendue des plateaux et des bassins océaniques, la profondeur des fosses et la taille des dorsales qui jalonnent les fonds sous-marins.
