	South Georgia, South Atlantic, Antarctica, whaling
		Southwards, a magnificent Alpine country, illuminated by the rising sun, rose slowly from the sea; there were mighty fells with snowy crowns and with sharp, uncovered teeth, around the valleys through which enormous, broad rivers of ice came flowing to the sea.
		After the last whales were dismembered and gutted on South Georgia in the mid 1960s, Grytviken, and the similar shore stations at Leith, Stromness and Husvik, were simply abandoned and left to crumble.
		South Georgia, once again replete through isolation and human inactivity, has all but returned to its former glory, marred only by man's untidy monuments to greed and cruelty.

	South Atlantic
		In the South Atlantic these transform faults are typically spaced some 50-100 km apart, reflect relative plate motion directions of the newly formed crust and occur at offsets of the normal faulted median rift valley that marks the axis of the ridge.
		For South America (east of the Andes), as noted above, the plate motion is consistently to the NW with an Euler pole located at approximately 25.4°S and 126.4°W. For South America west of the Andes the motions to the NE are consistent with the subduction of the Nazca plate beneath the Andes.
		Inspection of the satellite gravity for the South Atlantic indicates that deformation of the oceanic crust appears to be quite common and may be the controlling factor in the development of the Walvis Ridge and Rio Grande Rise aseismic ridges.

	South Georgia, South Atlantic Ocean
		South Georgia is an island lying on the Scotia Arc in the South Atlantic Ocean located at 37° West, 54.5° South, about 1,300 Km East-South-East of the Falkland Islands.
		In the South Atlantic, the only visible evidence of this substantial feature are the volcanic islands of Ascension, St Helena and Tristan da Cunha.
		Nearly two hundred islands lay scattered to the east and south of Latin America.These islands, which include South Georgia, were mainly discovered and charted by British navigators, and form part of the Scotia Arc which extends from the Andes to the Antarctic continent.
