bottom topography of the area. The majority of the Banks has less
than 3 meters of water (light blue and light green colors); the
Tongue of the Ocean (deep blue colors) has water more than 2000
meter s deep. Andros Island is the largest island in the photo-

This photo shows the complex bottom topography of the Bahama Banks area(24.0N, 77.0W). The majority of the feature (light blue color), where the tide and current sculpted bottom detail may be seen, is shallow water, generally less than three meters deep. However, the Tongue of the Ocean, Deep blue color, is water over 2,000 meters in depth. Andros Island is the largest island in the photograph. _
