The variation of water depth at spreading centers (ridges) controlled by isostasy as convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.
<h3>What is convective heat transfer?</h3>
When heat transfer takes place between the two fluids in direct or indirect contact.
The lithosphere cools when it moves away from the ridge axis by sea floor spreading. The cooler rocks have low density, so the sea floor gets deeper as the lithosphere gets more dense.
Thus, the convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.
