Short summary

A methodology is presented for reconstructing past global ocean bathymetry using a plate cooling model for the oceanic lithosphere, the age distribution of the oceanic crust, global oceanic sediment thicknesses, plus shelf-slope-rise structures calibrated at modern active and passive continental margins. The final product is a globally complete ocean bathymetry at arbitrary resolution with an isostatically adjusted, multicomponent sediment layer.
