The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is composed of discrete spreading segments that are tens of kilometers long, and offset by transform faults and nontransform offsets. The axis of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge is marked by a major rift valley 1 to 1.5 kilometers deep, a central floor 4 to 15 kilometers across, and ranges of crestal mountains on each side of the valley separated by 20 to 40 kilometers. The median valley walls are composed of large faults that move the crust upwards to form the crestal mountains.
