In this article the answer is YES!

DAILY MAIL SCIENCE : SCIENTISTS UNEARTHEN DEEP CONNECTION BETWEEN EARTH AND MARS : DEEP SEA

Excerpt:  The team drilled 370 holes deep in the oceans across the globe to analyze sediments within the sea floor.

Samples showed cycles of weakening and strengthening, which pointed to vigorous circulation happening below the depths.

Lead author Dr. Adriana Dutkiewicz said she and her team were surprised to uncover signs of the cycles in sediments, marking the first evidence found in geological data.

'There is only one way to explain them: they are linked to cycles in the interactions of Mars and Earth orbiting the sun,' she continued.

GRAVITY HOLE IN THE INDIAN OCEAN?

THE WEEK : ENVIRONMENT: INDIAN OCEAN GRAVITY HOLE 

Excerpt:  The Earth s basically a lumpy potato and not a sphere, study co-author Attreyeee Ghosh told CNN. Therefore, gravity is distributed unevenly around the planet.  "If you pour water on the surface of the Earth, the level that the water takes is called a geoid." determined by density differences under the surface o the Earth.  The "gravity hole" in the Indian Ocean is the "biggest low" in the geoid, Ghosh continued.

(Will the gravity hole disappear?"
