A study of International Seismological Center data between 45°-70°W and 55°-72°S, covering the 1970-1990 time period, verifies this conclusion. Earthquakes are located along the South Scotia Ridge, the Shackleton Fracture Zone, the Hero Fracture Zone and the South Shetland Islands. The earthquakes in the South Shetland Islands are concentrated on Deception and Bridgeman Islands, both volcanic Islands on either side of the Bransfield Rift. No seismic evidence is recognized along the Bransfield Rift, and very little along the South Shetland Trench. It can be concluded that neither subduction nor rifting is active in this region at present.}, pages = {35--42}, title = {SEISMICITY AROUND THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULA}, volume = {8}, year = {1995} }
