  • Title: Response to Comment on "Glacial cycles drive variations in the production of oceanic crust".
    Author: Crowley JW, Katz RF, Huybers P, Langmuir CH, Park SH.
    Journal: Science; 2015 Sep 04; 349(6252):1065. PubMed ID: 26339023.
    Abstract:
    Goff comments that faulting is important for creation of abyssal hills and is the dominant process at slow-spreading ridges. We respond that faulting is indeed important but cannot alone explain the bathymetric signal predicted by our models and observed at the Australian-Antarctic Ridge. We show that for intermediate- to fast-spreading ridges, abyssal hill spacing is consistent with the periodicity of the obliquity cycle.
