The sediment thickness on the oceanic rises is sur])risingly very similar to that beneath the abyssal i)lains, generally ranging from 1 to 2 km. The sediment thickness in the abyssal hills is generally too small to measure and the sediment thickness on the mid-oceanic ridge is generally extremely variable, being.
