Abstract

As part of a more general investigation of the structure and plate tectonics of the Scotia Sea early in 1972 a temporary seismographic station was installed at King Edward Point, the British Antarctic Survey station on South Georgia (see Fig. 1). The station (KEP) comprises a three-component set of short-period Willmore seismometers at position 54.28° S, 36.48° W, and two single channel (vertical) outstations with telemeter links to KEP; all five channels record on magnetic tape. Interest has been concentrated on a study of activity associated with the South Sandwich Islands subduction zone1.
