Riley, Teal R.; Burton-Johnson, Alex; Leat, Philip T.; Hogan, Kelly A. and Halton, Alison M. (2021). Geochronology and geochemistry of the South Scotia Ridge: Miocene island arc volcanism of the Scotia Sea.

Global and Planetary Change, 205(103615) This new publication looks at the South Scotia Ridge and gives new geochemistry and geochronology of samples from across the Discovery Bank. These new ages suggest the ancestral South Sandwich arc with active between 14 and 10 Ma, younger than previously suggested.
