Hydrography and flow in the rift valley of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge
Slow-spreading mid-ocean ridges such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge are characterized by deep axial rift valleys which are isolated from the water on the ridge flanks. Topographic effects therefore have a significant impact on the rift-valley hydrography and dynamics but little is known about the details...
