Clarification needed - DI personnel

[edit]

This article says that the island was charted by "DI personnel on the Discovery II". Nowhere can I find what "DI" means in this context. Any ideas? Matt 18:37, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Subduction trench location

[edit]

In this article, it says that the Atlantic Plate is subducting under the western side of the Sandwich Plate. The South Sandwich Plate article shows the subduction to the east. Kelseymh (talk) 02:33, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 07:11, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
