The major topographic feature of the South China Sea (1994) is a deep rhombus-shaped basin in the eastern portion, with reef-studded shoal areas rising up steeply within the basin to the south and northwest. A broad, shallow shelfextends up to 150 miles in width between the mainland and the northwestern side of the basin. To the south, off southernVietnam, the shelf narrows and connects with the Sundra Shelf, one of the largest sea shelves in the world. Many of the so-called islands in the Spratly area are merely rocky outcroppings that are underwater at high tide.
