I would really like to know. NOAA has a really impressive map here[0] (with a really impressive name) but I don't think it's set up for "surface area of ocean above X elevation."

However, I would expect dragging to occur in shallower waters rich in life because economically we're looking to extract maximum value. I'm worried that might roughly correlate to maximum damage. (Sure we could do more damage if we tried, we could bomb a coral reef, but we're essentially mining for certain lifeforms from an ecosystem.)
