Density Plot from Scientific Research

Probability density for nearest distance between escarpments and COBs for the regions (see a – c ). Global mean and median thicknesses (vertical grey band) are 336 and 333 km, respectively ( n = 5,288; Extended Data Fig. 3a–c ). Two distinct peaks for Brazil reflect two phases of escarpment formation there (Cretaceous and Cenozoic) 3 .
