25 kwi 2017 · The fourth deepest oceanic trench in the world is the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench, located in the northwest region of the Pacific Ocean. This trench reaches 34,449 at its deepest. It runs from a junction of the Ulakhan and Aleutian Trenches and crosses the Japan Trench to the southwest.
The Mariana Trench is an oceanic trench located in the western Pacific Ocean, about 200 kilometres (124 mi) east of the Mariana Islands; it is the deepest oceanic trench on Earth. It is crescent-shaped and measures about 2,550 km (1,580 mi) in length and 69 km (43 mi) in width.
Mariana Trench (Marianas Trench), deepest of the world’s deep-sea trenches. It stretches for more than 1,580 miles (2,540 km) with a mean width of 43 miles (69 km) and is part of the western Pacific system of oceanic trenches coinciding with subduction zones.
There are about 50,000 km (31,000 mi) of oceanic trenches worldwide, mostly around the Pacific Ocean, but also in the eastern Indian Ocean and a few other locations. The greatest ocean depth measured is in the Challenger Deep of the Mariana Trench , at a depth of 10,994 m (36,070 ft) below sea level .

deep-sea trench, any long, narrow, steep-sided depression in the ocean bottom in which occur the maximum oceanic depths, approximately 7,300 to more than 11,000 metres (24,000 to 36,000 feet). They typically form in locations where one tectonic plate subducts under another.
Scientists say we now have the most precise information yet on the deepest points in each of Earth's five oceans. The key locations where the seafloor bottoms out in the Pacific, Atlantic,...
