Map of bathymetric features in the Arctic Ocean, showing the location of the Canada Basin

The Canada Basin is a deep oceanic basin within the Arctic Ocean.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] It is part of the Amerasian Basin and lies off the coast of Alaska and northwest Canada between the Chukchi Plateau north of Alaska and the Alpha Ridge north of Ellesmere Island.
