A huge, mysterious so-called “gravity hole” under the Indian Ocean might have been formed from the remnants of an ancient sea, according to a new study. Researchers recently offered the possible ...
Researchers think they’ve found the reason for the most significant drop in Earth’s gravity, known as the Indian Ocean geoid low. In this location in the Indian Ocean south of Sri Lanka, our planet’s ...
South of Sri Lanka, the Indian Ocean is home to the planet's lowest gravity anomaly, a large and subtle depression in the gravitational field. Despite the seemingly calm ocean surface, the region's ...
