|---|---|---|
| 10 m | 240 km² | 4% |
| 20 m | 437 km² | 7.2% |
| 50 m | 881 km² | 14.5% |
| 80 m | 1,482 km² | 24.4% |
| 120 m | 1,946 km² | 32% |
| 200 m | 2,520 km² | 41.5% |
| 500 m | 5,259 km² | 86.5% |
| 1,000 m | 6,080 km² | 100% |
| 2,000 m | 6,080 km² | 100% |
| 3,000 m | 6,080 km² | 100% |
| 4,000 m | 6,080 km² | 100% |

Frequently asked questions
How deep is the Tayabas Bay?
On average about 270 m in the GEBCO grid (the middle value is 267 m). The deepest cell inside its outline is 789 m, at 13.63° N, 121.61° E.
How big is the Tayabas Bay?
About 6,080 km² of water inside its Natural Earth outline, counted from the grid cells that are below sea level.
How much of the Tayabas Bay would be land if sea level dropped?
With the sea 10 m lower, about 240 km² (4%) of its water would be land. At 6,000 m lower, 100% would be. This is a simple bathtub model that lowers the sea evenly everywhere.
