What causes this affect is a combination of the relatively flat seafloor with some low
frequency noise that stretches the data range. Adjusting the

Histogram

allows the user

to confine the stretched color palette to a specified range of values as shown below.

Note that the original

Histogram

stretched the color map from 13.95m to 28.5m while the

revised

Histogram

was set to range just from 21m to 23m depth.

By combining the relief shading settings with the color options and histogram adjustments,
subtle details in the data can be enhanced for better interpretation.
