La Zone Seismique Mediane Indo-Atlantique
Abstract
The distribution of earthquake epicentres in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans is discussed; numerous new epicentres are listed. It is shown that the line of epicentres following the mid-Atlantic Ridge is continued round the Cape of Good Hope and joints the similar line marking the central ridge of the Indian Ocean. It seems, therefore, that these two ridges are related structures.
