There is an important distinction between the global sea level trend and relative sea level trends (based on local sea level measurements), which must be understood in order to interpret changes to a coastline or particular location, and to properly apply the information.

Tide stations measure Local Sea Level, which refers to the height of the water as measured along the coast relative to a specific point on land. Water level measurements at tide stations are referenced to stable vertical points (or bench marks) on the land and a known relationship is established.

Ocean beds are fascinating in their own accord. Their very depth is what makes them so enchanting. Most oceans go up to depths of several thousand meters. But what is the deepest part of the ocean exactly? Scientifically speaking, it refers to the maximum depth of a point that can be accessed or defined.

Every such deepest part ocean is referred to as deep trenches. But if we were to consider deepest depth of the ocean, we’d be truly amazed. Here is a list of various points that mark deepest points of oceans.

1. Mariana Trench

Better known as the deepest point on earth’s surface, this trench lies in Pacific
