A 200 km anomalous topographic zone was discovered using wavelet scale analysis in a 1600 km linear bathymetric profile taken northeast of Hawaii. A spectral analysis of the zone shows that the power in wavelengths shorter than 25 km averages 5--10 times lower than the surrounding topography. Conversely, wavelengths longer than 25 km have 2--3 times greater power than nearby topography. Further research reveals that this low-frequency zone correlates with the eastern flank of a regional bathymetric high which has been described by J. Mammerickx [1981>. Details of the features suggest that this zone is a small, abandoned, slow-spreading rift overprinted by a regional thermal swell. The magnitude of the feature is smaller than other, known, abandoned spreading centers, making it easy to overlook without the application of the wavelength transform. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1993
