Shallowmhelf is a term used in some coastal geology discussions and speculative fiction to describe a shallow, expansive submarine surface that forms part of the continental shelf. In these uses, a shallowmhelf refers to a broad, low-relief platform that lies just below sea level along continental margins, extending for kilometers with minimal topographic variation. The concept is not part of formal geological nomenclature, but it appears in educational illustrations and fictional settings as a distinct seabed feature.
Within fictional and speculative contexts, shallowmhelves are sometimes depicted as ecologically rich habitats or as convenient
