Hi!

Are these correct? Can someone help me, please?

Here goes:

At the depth of 130 m (is the "of" compulsory?)

In the depth interval between 100 m - 130 m.

Thanks!

Yes, 'of' is compulsory.

I can write it in another way:

At 130 m depth, at a depth of 130 m,

In the depth interval between 100 m - 130 m.

- between 100 m to 130 m depth interval,

- in the depth interval ranging from 100 m to 130 m

-at an interval between 100 m to 130 m depth.
